<\/p>\n

A thread on Star Wars Crafts<\/a> documents the making of a cool giant Jabba the Hutt parade puppet. This photo is from about midway through the process, before it is skinned. It’s made from all kinds of things that I am very familiar with working with – mattress foam, irrigation pipe, tons of hot glue, spray adhesive, stretchy fabric and so on! And it has a suitably gross tongue, seen in action here<\/a>. (It reminds me of the Big Heads<\/a>.)<\/p>\n

If you are interested in the making of the original Jabba, follow the links in this post at PuppetVision<\/a>.<\/p>\n
