Or probably closer to 10 days and two puppets.<\/p>\n

Which is my current goal for puppet making. <\/p>\n

So a little over a year ago I met Billie Piper at a convention. She adored the puppet that I made for David to give to his wife Georgia of her character in Doctor Who. David told her about the puppet that I had made of his doctor. I asked her if I was going to make a Rose Tyler puppet, which outfit would she like?<\/p>\n

Without a moments hesitation she said the 1950s outfit from The Idiot\u2019s Lantern. <\/p>\n

\"<\/a>
\n(For the VI this is a still from that episode. Billie and David are on a motorscooter. David is in front in a brown suit with light blue stripes, sunglasses and a white helmet with a black brim. Billie is behind him wearing a pink dress with a purple jacket and putting on a pink helmet. She is wearing pink framed sunglasses)<\/p>\n

I said next convention we are both at, I\u2019ll have it for you.<\/p>\n

Well the next convention is MegaCon and that\u2019s in 11 days. <\/p>\n

So I am off to the races on this one. <\/p>\n

I have done my preliminary research on the dress and jacket and have a pretty good idea how this is all going to go together. <\/p>\n

The dress is relatively simple to make. The jacket is going to be a bit of a challenge but nothing absurd. <\/p>\n

I am lucky that they had the dress on display a while back and there are plenty of pictures on the Internet. This seems to be one of the more popular cos-plays for Rose so some of my questions have been answered for me. <\/p>\n

I am going to have to do one slight difference to make this look right but it will be under the jacket and not visible unless you take off the jacket. <\/p>\n

No helmet. <\/p>\n

The second puppet that I want to make in the same time period is a commissioned piece that the to be owner has been beyond patience with me. <\/p>\n

\"<\/a>
\n(This is the cover of Aquaman #1 written by Peter David. Aquaman is being sucked into a whirlpool. He had green gloves, orange shirt, green pants, gold belt. His hair is blond and long and he has a beard.)<\/p>\n

\"<\/a>
\n(Aquaman surrounded by predatory fish. He has a gold harpoon on his left hand and silver armor on his right side.)<\/p>\n

I have the materials for this one and will be putting it together for Martin. <\/p>\n

So by next Tuesday I will have progress photos and the Tuesday after that maybe some puppet adventure stories. <\/p>\n

I am grateful that is it possible to find decent pictures on the Internet to recreate costumes.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
