Murray Puppet

Recommended Posts

Well I tried doing it off of Curse of Monkey Island...

 

But the thing about Murray is in the game he has two expressions.

He has the grumpy look "MWAHAHAHAA":mad:

and then he has a surprised look :eek:

 

I ended up doing the surprised look cause I figured I could get more emotion out of it. But originally (though I never figured out how) I wanted to have a cord that you could pull with your finger that'd make his eyes go grumpy. :mad: (like Bert on Sesame Street)

 

But once again I never figured out how to do that or what materials.

 

I made Murray by blowing up a balloon, then paper macheying(sp)

a bunch of layers on top. Once enough layers had been added I popped the balloon. I'm no seamstress nor have I worked with much fabric in the past so I pretty much hot glue gunned on a silky grey fabric. I had to also inside add a small strap to keep the top fingers from going places. A lot went into him and he's been to a couple of functions with me. He entertained kids at a magic show and Murray also was used as humor to liven up the situation for a little kid who was frightened after walking through a haunted house on halloween.

 

Good times.
