My Scarlet and Black puppets

by **spurge321** » Mon Dec 12, 2005 7:27 pm

Here is a picture of my Scarlet and Black puppets. Scarelt was the first one I made and he took months to make because I was creating moulds at the same time. Black came together much quicker.They are made from castings from original puppets, although Black is actually a remodeled Gravner head. I'm a rubbish photographer so the detail has been lost in this photo and the colours look a little odd. If you view please let me know what you think. Only a couple of people have seen them and I'd like to get some opinions.

'm currently working on Captain Blue, but it will be sometime before he is completed because I like to work in day light, and theres not much arround this time of year.

Awww they're adorable :-D

Can't wait to see Blue, he's my favourite.
Do you have plans to make any more?

Thanks for your kind comments.

I have castings for nearly all the characters, so yes there will be more. AfterCpt Blue I will make either Lt Green or Col White, can't decide which (already bought the leather for them). I'm going to have trouble when it comes to making the Angels though because I have no patterns for the clothes. If anybody has a copy I'd be eternally grateful if you would contact me.

Very good replicas! I know from experience how difficult it is to make these! I've tried twice to put together a scarlet with no luck. I'd love to see closeups of the faces etc, very well done!

Thanks!

The hair was the thing I had most trouble with and was by far the hardest part for me. I got to the stage where I'd spent days putting it on only to decide it was never going to look right. so I tore it all off again. Second time round it was OK thank goodness.

I'll try and take some more pictures for you, but I have to say I'm really bad with the camera.

Those are absolutely excellent. The paint job on the heads is spot on. Did you put any stubble on Black? It does not show up too well on the picture.

Yes, both Scarlet and Black have stubble, although Scarlet's is somewhat more subtle than I intended. Black is also quite pale when compared to Scarlet, but that doesn't come out in the photo either.
