Taxidermy Puppets!!!!! SING FOR YOUR LIFE!

Image
Recently I performed an excerpt from the musical  'SING FOR YOUR LIFE!' at the first Dark Fabrics Cabaret; A cross between the X Factor and Pet Rescue. In the week before I managed to scrape together a fox which was specially couriered up from my mum's freezer in Dorset. Poor woman..... This fox was found by my sister and her friend.  As you can see they're having a great time. The fox obviously hadn't. There wasn't a scratch on her which leads me to suspect poison!  She was a beauty.  So so stunning. Took at least 3 days to semi defrost. Here's how the puppet was made. . . . STEP ONE: Defrost Fox STEP 2: Skin Fox STEP 3: Try and make the fox look like a fox again To give the head a shape instead of just flopping around I used a badger skull.
