Puppet Making, Part 4: Creating Poseable Hands!
My husband Patrick (aka @serapium) is responsible for Bean's poseable hands! He took on the challenge and did awesome things for me, once again.
I have to say that one of the most amazing things about my husband is that he has always ALWAYS been incredibly supportive of my creative endeavors. I really can't think of anything that I've wanted to do creatively that he hasn't supported me in.
I don't just mean being verbally supportive and encouraging, either. Not to discount that, because that has been a HUGE factor in me accomplishing so many things. His unending support, encouragement and always telling me that I am talented/amazing/capable has made it possible for me to keep up the momentum and get things accomplished.
BUT, he ALSO helped me out every time by actually participating. Helping me, almost always in some technical way to make my creation come to life. Whether it was building sets, doing lights or even creating cool special effects for one of my plays that I wrote or directed or building designs that I created for our home or helping with things like making a puppet with me.
In this case, it was creating poseable hands for my Bean. I was at a loss when it came to his hands. I didn't want to just have stuffed hands that couldn't do anything at all. I wanted him to be able to hold a marker or a paint brush. I wanted him to be able to have an open hand to wave... and @serapium was awesome as always and made it happen for me!
This will need a FULL 24 HOURS to dry.
You can find more information in my previous posts Puppet Making Part 1:Making the Head & Body as well as Part 2: Making of the Mouth and Part 3: Creating the Skin
Next Week we'll make the arms and legs and be ready to discuss lighting and technical stuff and start posting some videos!

Heya @byn!
Bean came out really nice. It lifts me up to hear that your husband fully supports you. It's easy to give words in agreeance, but it takes a lot to work together with you on projects :3
I'm actually helping my boyfriend set up his Steemit account soon. He's an artist!
With love,
@shello
Oh, that's awesome! My husband and some of my kids have steemit accounts, but they've all been pretty overwhelmed with work and school lately, so they haven't been on as much.
I wish you and your boyfriend the best of luck :) I love following artists, so feel free to comment with his username once he's on and I'll follow him and try to help offer support!
Thank you for your comments. :)
The love is real @byn :3 Thank you! I can relate to how your kids feel, sometimes I feel like I'm in a hole with my classes.
I will be sure to do that, I'll be delegating some of my SP to open up his account because he wants to work on his posts soon.
The pleasure is all mine :D
