This is really good! Do you use an armature for the characters, or are they all just clay? And did you have to do any rigging?

@belovedalene Its all plasticine except the head is held by piercing some wire between it and the body. Also i put a couple of small magnets in Abe's feet and then put another stronger magnet underneath the desk to stick him to the desk a little better. Thats pretty much it though. Hope that helps!

is this home-made or are you a professional or a student?

[jamesthesquirrel]

@paperninja2 Nah, just homemade in my bedroom

Thats amazing! i do stop motion, but i usually rush it lol... Did you use a wallace and gromit kit for the eyes etc?

[jamesthesquirrel]

just plasticine eyes, i had to replace them everynow and then though

[belovedalene]
