Here is the puppet prototype. The backing is watercolor paper. To this is glued fabric and whatnot. In this version the skin is watercolor. I might attempt using gouache for a more bold look. The joints are connected using thread and needle. Simple but surprisingly sturdy.
I will be constructing different puppets from different angles for different shots.

These are awesome Caitlin. Will you be animating her flat against the background or will we see her propped up in a 3D environment? If so, it might be difficult to keep her in place and manipulate her. If she is flat I guess you will be creating different puppets for different angles?
Sorry if you have gone over this already in class- I have a little catching up to do on these projects:)
Er... I just read the "I will be constructing different puppets from different angles for different shots." comment you posted- that answers my question.
I do like your puppet, You can use a glass to give it more depth of field, just have to be careful about your lighting and the shadows, and weight it down with a nickel on the backside that way your puppet does not shift that much. Are you going to use frame-thief. If you are onion-skin is helpful... Keep up the awesome work.
