You not only restored a puppet head, you brought life and character back into it and that is a rare gift that deserves respect! :thumbsup

Thanks very much for this! That was indeed the true challenge of this (and any, really) restoration project.

I greatly appreciate all the kind words.

Thanks again!
Tom

It does look awesome Wampa. I showed this to my wife and son who said you can't even tell where he was repaired. Again without the before pics you wouldn't know it. Going back to the Hoggle, it was definately in rough shape but it is a shame they scrapped the face to sculp another.

I think Hoggle is trying to say Noooooo in this pic
