🦖 Throwin’ it back to this prehistoric Fisticuff Puppet Co. build.

This friendly little dino was built for patterning practice and gave us a chance to try some new shapes and materials. He may go the way of the dinosaurs, but— just like the paleontologists we always wanted to be— we’ll learn from his bones to discover more about our own evolution.

Rooooaaaar!

Today - alongside friends, colleagues, and mentors - we celebrate World Puppetry Day!

Since officially launching Fisticuff Puppet Company in November 2020, we have built 28 original puppet creations for clients from just down the road to all the way on the other side of the world.

Additionally, we are celebrating a friendship and puppetry partnership now spanning two decades!

“Life begins with a simple spark
A glimmer of light to fill the dark
Foam, wood, springs, and lines of thread
Bring forth an idea from within your head

So, lift your creation and raise your glass
Let’s celebrate what’s come to pass
And as for all that lies ahead
Create life with your hands until you’re dead!”

New ‘Ventriloquist Style’ custom puppet build!

It’s always fun (and a little scary) to push ourselves with new (to us) design and build techniques... but if not now, when?

We learned a lot on this build and we can’t wait for him to arrive in the hands of his new puppeteer!

Loved working with the new Fuzzelle from Puppet Pelts! Tested a few stitches on it. They all went swimmingly!

Looking forward to machine testing next!

Any other builders try it out yet? What are your thoughts? And what’s your favorite stitch to use with it?
