Its for a person who wants to make professional level figures for stop motion animation; maybe advanced hobbyists who are pretty serious about it.There are three major sections to the book:1. how to to sculpting of figures in clays2. How to take these clay sculptures and turn them into foam injected puppets3. How to do the foam build up method over an armature to create a puppet.This is a fifty dollar investment so I will give you more about these things.Parts 1 and 2 are all about sculpting a clay figure then casting a plaster mold around it. Once that mold is done you put the armature in and cast the foam into it. This whole process is pretty involved and you have to take care of a lot of details. But; if you get this all down you will create some amazing puppets. I tried this whole process but could never get it right. Thats my failing not the book. I ended up moving on to the process in section 3....In section 3 you create an armature then build up pieces of foam around it. This makes the musculature and shape of the figure. Then you coat it with materials and latex rubber to give it a skin. I did all this and successfully created my puppet (2 foot dragon)So; The book is good; shows the processes but you have got to be serious about the making of animation puppets.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
