How to build a foam body for a hand-puppet - video part 1
10 years ago
This video shows how to make the main part of a puppet foam-body for a hand-puppet - in the style of the puppets from the Eurofurence Pawpet-Show. I will use this body with a 3d-printed head-base.
The pattern for the foam-body:

This is my basic pattern for a foam puppet-body. Most of my puppets were made with this pattern. I print it normally 47cm high, 52cm wide - cut the foam out of a cheap camping mat (closed cell foam, 0.8-1.2cm thick).
Check the dimensions of the puppeteers arm before you build the body - the pattern doesn't fit everyone - adjust it if needed.
