Progress on jingles

I didn't get as much done today as I really want to do. But, I did get the head sanded again and I got the rings around the hands so that I can put the little clips onto holding onto the arms, I got the Cap and the Magic Sculpt in the holes were the bubbles were. I got the hand control stick cut, and I started to cut the Wood for the body. Then I had to go on a big spider hunt and I killed 8 big spiders! Then I got some bad news from the doctor so I'm going to giving it up for the day! The L5 in my spine is fractured, so I have a broken back. But I'm still gonna work on the puppets until I get it done! Below is a picture of jingle said the progress I've done shows the head that has been sanded and then Hand sanded to make it smooth as glass. I also sanded and hand sanded the hands, the mouth, and tomorrow I have to finish cutting out The hand control stick and finish the body! Then I also have to put in the eyes, mouth, the inner mechanics, and then it's to the paint room!

Allergic to magic sculpt!

As I mentioned last winter that I was starting to swell up in my eyes because the magic sculpt; this year it is actually gotten worse I've started to swell in my entire face and I become itchy all over. I'm actually considering switching over to a slush mold; A slush mold is almost like what Kennt Croes and braylu creation does where it's like a plastic Styrofoam kind of stuff. I checked into it a little bit and it's actually 2 chemicals that you put together in the mold and swooshes it around in circles almost like the paint machine at Walmart. After I get done with the set of puppets; the new puppets and I'm putting out, i'm thinking about saving the money up to go ahead and switch over to the slush molds! If you've tried this method before please let me know if it works good!

As I sanded I was making holes! Below are the 3 puppets with holes! It's magic sculpt time! I will have to wait until tomorrow now to sand again and paint, but it's ok! I want the puppets to come out as perfect as possible!
