Crow T robot
Crow T Robot is another puppet in one of my favorite shows Mystery Science Theatre 3000. I’m quite surprised while mimicking the real life size how big this puppet is. His head piece is the face guard of a hockey helmet. The puppeteer has it in one hand while the other hand operates the mouth.
You think that such a popular puppet with lots of fans creating their own piece together lots of info and images on the web. Nope, it was still challenge to understand to faithfully recreate this character. Because each part is kit bashed, I was having to study the original object.
During the creation of this model, I had the surprise chance to meet someone with an actual puppet in the Seattle area. MoPop was hosting a Maker Faire. The photos I got of the puppets were extremely helpful for all the details I couldn’t find.
