Finished my life sized Gustavo 3 Puppet for my Lucia Mar Cosplay
Finished with my Gustavo 3 life sized Rottweiler puppet for my Lucia Marr cosplay.
I haven’t even started on the actual wearable costume 😂 I just really wanted to push myself to see if I could pull it off having never made a puppet before…. And go big or go home I guess 😂 there was a lot of learning involved and a lot of improvising. His neck is on a sliding track (held up by his collar when not in use) and his head on a pivot to look around. His jaw opens with his held tilt and he makes a handful of growling sounds as well as blinks on his own. He is also attached to wheels (which took such a long time to engineer properly 🫣) so I can roll him around like a suitcase 😂 I also pre-planned out how to easily break him down more for better storage because….. he is large. 😅
