I make a lot of puppets for various reasons. I have built them for shows, for sketches at conventions, for puppet slams, for individuals, and to see if I can do it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It is rare that I make a puppet specifically for me. There are a couple that have become my puppets like the War Doctor I took onto Capaldi\u2019s TARDIS, Rumpelstiltskin because he grew on me the more I performed with him, and those puppets I have had signed over the years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
But for me to say I am making this puppet for me is practically unheard of. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
There would be pictures but apparently my online photo storage is not working and I haven\u2019t found something that I like that stays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
When I started watching anime, it was on Channel 17 in Atlanta which became TBS when cable TV became available. One of the things that they showed was a terrible mash-up of Captain Harlock and Queen of 1,000 years. I was fascinated with both series but really like Harlock. I became a fan of Leiji Matsumoto\u2019s body of work as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are times I thought about building myself a Harlock puppet but I didn\u2019t feel my skills were to a point that I could execute it the way I wanted it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Well I feel I can do it now. I have resources for things I didn\u2019t have before and materials that have been invented since I first had the idea. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
This will be my summer puppet for conventions. There are a couple of others I want to do as well but this one is going to get made. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yes, there are things here I have not done or not done in a long time, but I do believe this is possible. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
I am grateful for my skill set.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
