Pattern:
The Roly Puppet Pattern
Character: "WIKI is a female from Saturn. Saturn people are known as experts builders and pilots of fantastic starships. WIKI is working as computer and science crew member of the first interplanetary ship for terrestrials. She is so clever and a little bit arrogant." - Jose Vega
Technical: "This one of my two first puppets I made. They are the main characters for a local TV station program called SUPERSONIK. The history behind the making of this puppets was a little bit incidental. We had to set up a children's show the local TV station where we work. It was a Saturday and shops were closed. I found a home decorating shop, and saw a beautiful blue blanket...I started to think on the character. The rest as usual - ping pong balls for the eyes, and silver leather for the trimmings." - Jose Vega
