Fascinus Marionette: A Divine Winged Phallus

 I finished my winged-penis marionette today. Basswood, leather, acrylics.

Work In Progress: A Winged Penis Marionette and a Bird Marionette

 I started work on a winged-penis marionette, based on a Roman fascinus. The wings and scrotum will be movable to give the puppet “character”. It will be on a wire controller.

I continue to work on the bird marionette. I like how it’s turning out. Legs and paint, and then the rigging of the strings to come.

Corpse Puppet

 I built a combo puppet: a finger puppet inside a hand puppet. Or it’s a finger puppet dressed in a body bag?

Maggot...

Originally a costume idea-- but this could work great as a DECOMP "GHILLIE SUIT". Sometimes you need to sneak-up on a maggot mass, and with this Trojan Maggot suit they'd never see you coming! I predict that this will be standard medicolegal kit in the very near future.
