Studio scale (approx.12" tall), Cyclops Stop Motion Puppet. Aluminum wire armature. The body was done using the foam build up method, while the head was sculpted in clay and cast in hydrostone. Hands have a copper wire armature. 100 frames of animation were done to test flexibility and movement. A youtube link will be provided upon upload. The puppet moves very well and is easily animated. The wire armature is strong and sturdy. Head movement however is limited. The jaw and eye are sta...tic and do not move. This puppet would be great for a beginner or amateur animator. It also makes a great static display. Includes a set of tie downs. Display stand not included. Although this puppet is robust, it will not hold up to abuse. It must be moved very slowly. Fast back and forth movement could cause the internal armature to break.
Paint rubs and skin tears are to be expected during long animation takes. Acryllic paint and liquid latex should be onhand if needed for repairs during animation. Puppet sold as - is, and will be shipped via USPS Priority mail. Here is the animation test:
