This is not a replica but an actual puppet from Dark Crystal My client sent it to me to make a display for it. I went with an earthy look that the Podlings had to their village. I did not want to go overboard and distract from the Podling itself but wanted to make it all blend in together.

Thanks for looking and if you have any questions ask away!

That's awesome! He looks in pretty good shape, was he restored?

According to the owner of the piece very minimal restoration was done. I think to the hands and that was it. The little guy was in great shape though! No idea where it was stored but it looks great

Loved that movie as a kid, though so much of it creaped me the hell out.

So many nifty prop options, but to have a screen used puppet, man that's cool.

Well done with the environment. Could be right out of the film set.

I know! My client has a great prop collection but this piece is just outstanding! I loved being able to help him work out the display to showcase it in
