If you are a regular reader of this web log, then you know the story about how this past weekend I got Pupaldi as we started calling him to Capaldi.<\/p>\n

\"<\/a>
\n(for the VI: This is my Doctor Who puppet based on Capaldi\u2019s Doctor. He is sitting on a very colorful carpet. He has grey hair and eye brows and blue eyes. He is wearing a white shirt buttoned up to the top, a blue sweater vest and a blue jacket.)<\/p>\n

Now I have no record other than the official Epic Op Photo that I posted yesterday. And this is true of most of the puppets I have given to people because usually it is on the fly and not an appropriate place to stop and take photos. But I did see his expression of joy at the puppet so I know it went to a good home. Now let\u2019s see if we can get a puppet show with his puppet and Michelle\u2019s puppet.<\/p>\n

Last Tuesday I got the following done the body and the face.<\/p>\n

\"<\/a>
\n(for the VI: this is the puppet with no clothes. His hair and eyebrows are grey and his eyes are blue)<\/p>\n

Then Wednesday I patterned and made the clothing for him.<\/p>\n

\"<\/a>
\n(for the VI: same puppet now wearing a white shirt closed to the top)<\/p>\n

The vest was next <\/p>\n

\"<\/a>
\n(for the VI: Same puppet now with a blue sweater vest)<\/p>\n

And then I took him out for drinks after adding his ring<\/p>\n

\"<\/a>
\n(for the VI: Same puppet with sunglasses on. He is \u201cholding\u201d a beer glass in his left hand and had a ring on that hand)<\/p>\n

After we returned from the pub, I made the jacket including a fiddly lining that was a PITA but looked great after I got it done and in the jacket.<\/p>\n

\"<\/a>
\n(For the VI: Same puppet with sunglasses now wearing a blue jacket with a red lining)<\/p>\n

I put on the buttons that night and he was ready to rock and roll. <\/p>\n

Now onto DragonCon and Shoreleave and SDCC not necessarily in that order. Shoreleave is 6 weeks away so I want to get a majority of what I am going to do for DragonCon done by then since once Shoreleave starts we are running a gauntlet until after DragonCon. <\/p>\n

Figuring out DragonCon Art Show now. Any requests of puppets you might like to see me do?<\/p>\n

I am grateful for the response that Pupaldi got at Awesome Con.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
