The title should be "let me show you a puppet I have made" there is no instruction and even the recipe for the compound is vague at best.

If your gonna call it "How to" please do what you say, rather than presenting a completed puppet for a bit of an ego boost.

Great figure and action. Amazing how little actual info is in these little tutorials.

[frogjames09]

what's the last ingredient? I can't quite make it out.

[mycatsrock99]

oh well atleast shes in the kitchen

[theoracle42]

these "instructional" videos are grossly vague and therefore useless. If you're not going to teach anything then don't post a video claiming that you will, you've wasted my time(and everyone else's) and made a mockery of the Expert Village simply to show off. Redo these properly or take them off.

As the Gypsy King of Puppetry...

"Expert Village"... We're experts, we know what we're doing, it's our village, and we're not telling you anything about how to get in and join us!

Gostei muito do seu trabalho. Nós aqui no Brasil também trabalhamos com fantoches e marionetes. Parabéns! Elizabeth Cunha

[JamesMRaymond]

I do believe they would be called a Puppeteer.

[amanreadingstories]

the controller is the puppeteer and this one has been vague because she wants you to buy her puppets and also because she is saying that you can make them out of anything- you have to make them!

[zyxavious]

Really nice
