Cool 😎 video 📸
This is a wonderful tutorial. Had my class split up into teams of 3-4 and it took them about 1.5-2 hours to complete.
Awesome 💯
I can’t believe this was posted 11 years ago! Video is still very fun and helpful today 👍
Thank you so much for making this video! My son and I volunteer for a puppet guild and now my son needs to make a puppet for cub scouts. He loves marionettes too so this was the perfect tutorial we needed! You explained it very well and in simple terms that my 10 yr old could understand and be motivated! Thanks again!!!
The tutorial is great, but I think the hips are missing in the man and that is what makes the shape a little strange, I think that the fact that the head is out of proportion doesn't matter that much.
Nice UA-cam Channel
I never say I can't because I have found out that I can do whatever I want. It does take time and practice but you definitely can do it!
The only thing I don't love about this video is that I found it right before I have to go to work so I gotta wait the whole day before I can go home and try this (and I WILL try this!)
I truly love marionettes :) Maybe you will too!
Yes, most definitely!
You are very welcome! THanks for watching and have fun with the marionettes!
Saw a puppet master playing with a puppet named Stix. Now I fell in love with puppets and I really want to make my own set of puppets :)
Thanks for this tutorial. :D

Hi
Hi😄💶💴💰📨💷
Bubba Gurt yes I love that moonshiner marionette that's why im here too... Lol
Ha same
What characters are you going to make/have made ?
Cool I now have something new to do. I can't wait to get started with my clay. Thanks for the inspiration.
Cute for a kids project and basic enough that you can build on it to make a more detailed marionette. You can also add clear string attaching the feet to the hands to make them "walk." =)
Great video. 😊 I'm definitely going to try some these ideas for my puppets and marionettes. Thank you for sharing.
Have you thought about making a marionette out of wood dowell and masking tape?
Outstanding, thank you for sharing. Now I have a fun project to do with my kids. 😄
Hey, just this simple technique really helped me visualize my version. Cheers.
Thanks! Needed to make one for school, had no idea. This really helped
Thank you I recently have been wanting to make a marionette and I didn’t know how your tutorial has been most helpful!
@pattinsonsfan Great idea. Yes, polymer clay would work very well.!
What sort of measurements would you recommend for the wooden cross?
I have the most pretty Skull Kid w/ mask concept drawn. What was that beige clay in the video? It sounded like he said ceramic.
thats celluclay. Its kind of like a paper mache mix. You can use just about any hardening clay. But some are prone to dryng and cracking.
Nice!what is the material for the body of the puppet?
Can you use string instead of wire? I realise it won't be as strong in the long run and may break after a while, but the movement would be roughly the same, yeah?
Yes, you can. It will be ok.
epicfantasy Awesome! Thank you :)
I don't have a video but I do have a tutorial on my website. Its called 11 string marionette.
Thanks man I can now get high grades in my assessment.
Thank you very much! The best and simplest tutorial for beginners. Hugs from Brazil
You are very welcome! There is a certain simple beauty in Marionettes :) Enjoy and Hugs back from the USA.
Thank you so much! I was trying to find a way to make puppets for my project.
Yes, I think that would be quite ok!
This is great! Thank you. Can't wait to try it out. :)
Thank you so much! I plan one doing this with my middle school students in Art class. We are doing a Greek unit and I've been looking for some way for them to make a commercial/ public service announcement about their god or goddess without having to put THEMSELVES in front of the camera - this is perfect!!!
Thanks for watching! And have fun!!!
I don't know. But give it a try!
awesome sir, you just made my day !
Do you have a tutorial on the more advanced way to make the control? The stick with the strings, I mean; how does it work with more strings attached?
@kikoypogi19 you are welcome. Have fun with your marionettes!
Awesome tutorial. We homeschool and can't wait to start this.
Excellent! Thanks for posting!
Great Stuff, good, simple and clear, thanks for sharing!
Nice piece of Art 👏👏👏👏👏
ooh,this looks rather fun.will polymer clay work good for a marrionette?
great suggestion. thanks!
Hi, this video of yours is a huge hit. By the way how did you fix the foot part of the marionette
I don’t think much people still do marionettes but I don’t understand I did it and it’s fun my first one is Sasori and I enjoyed it’s sad not much people do it
this was linked in my home work for all year 6 kids
I have an assessment in 8th grade to make a puppet so Im making a doll
any hardware store, you buy it. Just newspaper and tape. watch the video to see how to make the body.
This is simple but helpful. Now I can do the basic of the Ink puppet
I'll break lots of hearts :D
You can use anything, paint stirrers, cardboard. Find some pieces of wood.
what gage did you use for wire.
quarantine project!
it is superb but can you make the head without crumpling newspaper
Yay! Your the best will! Pure beast right here!
cool, have fun!
Honestly this is the best way to make a DIY marrionette
yes
Can you please share some ideas about different mechanism I can use.
Great video thank you! I want to make one for a music videos I'm shooting soon quick question any tips on how to make the cross for attachments for the legs also I would like to move the legs as well :)
can fish line be used rather than wire.
How do u string the arm attachment to the torso
can copper wires be used instead of string?
Thank you so much for uploading this!!!! :)
I’m new to this and wondering if anyone has any tips on how to keep the legs from turning backwards?
Yes,, using two little metal hoops rather than one will keep the legs oriented in only one direction.
Very Very Helpful 👍👍
I got to get home to make one ! ;)
`thx so much I thought I was gonna fail my project😅
Love all your vidios so creative I've made so many marienets thanks will for all. The great ideas you inspire many people to be creative
You are very welcome and thanks! Send me a pic of your marionettes!
@gamenational723 First off, you can do anything. But, they do make some amazing marionettes that you can buy.
I found this wep site it makes a bunch of puppets you guys can look at them at good looks 24 7 i love them
How do you make the body and the head?
@madhatter1232 You can do it!
nice work... but it would be easier if you ue paper clips instead of wire in order to make the articulations ;-)
anyway, nice marionettes!
Can you use a string
Yeah I did it,it was hard but I din't complain I just kept on going!
what wire do you use?
yes, it can.
So I'm making a puppet and this is a great tutorial!
unfortunately I forgot to put arms on mine
Will this do for Cthulhu?
Nice job but... You didn't show us other parts how to make the doll that you only showed us how to make the leg
I think that is because when he is making the leg he's trying to show an example on how to make the other body parts
can string also work?
Probably I know this comment are from 2013
You can definitely make it all clay.
very very thank you .. I need make one .. for homework for my son .thanks Andrea country Uruguay.and sorry for my badly English 😉😘
" *sasori* "
I don't understand how you made the chest ?
Can i use yarn

This is perfect to make my own fnaf nightmare marionette thank you very much
Omg thanks so much!!!!!!!!!! ❤❤❤❤❤
I tried everything. I still cant do it. I never have the tools for it.
Amazing
thnx needed one fo project
thanks! its for my school project since its hard so i got some ugly drawing of mine and made it limbs :D
omg im 11 years late but is it possible to replace wire with string?
THanks for posting this ive wanted to make a marriannet but im not about to sit around and cobble one together for hours on end :P
how do you connect strings to the legs? I'm having a hard time picturing this in my head.
you have to have a separate wooden handle to attach the other end of the strings to.
I looked up diy sasori. I got this. Not dissapointed.
@mecoolforever im not that guy but incase he dosnt reply i think i would use fishing wire
why you did not put string the feet of puppet
I like that the little guy is spongy.
