Bunny - Puppet - problem solving

Material - Latex - Head Test 

With this kind of puppet (chubby, and with no cloths) it was hard to figure out what would be the best way to construct it. I tried layer of latex, but that was too stiff when bent. I tried mix of sealant and cornflour, but unfortunately it didn't turned out well once mixed with paint to get the right colour. I Tired to use plasticine at first but it was squishing too much when moved or bent. but that seemed to be the best option. On the photo above you can see body cast with payer of plasticine and on top plymorph, shaped into shape of the body so when squished it still will keep more original form.

1. Body Casting 

2. Assembling Armature

3. Bulking up Armature

4. Body Testing - Latex 

5. Trying out sealant and corn flour

6. White supersculpy mixed with paint

7. mixing plastecine

8. Making Hands

I also used polymorph for feet.  it was good material to go over armature. then over goes later layer.

Here is the end result. Its really easy to move and easy to go over any imperfections
