First, I was crafted from wood to create molds. Seven molds were needed for me, little puppet—head, body, arms, legs, and tail. Ceramic material was poured into them and left for just the right time before being emptied, leaving a thick shell behind. Once dried, I was carefully removed from the mold, seams smoothed, and any imperfections cleaned. Even my pouring hole was sealed to ensure my head stayed intact.

Next, holes were drilled for threads and leather hinges to hold me together later. Precision was key—no one wants a lopsided puppet! After drying for days, I went into the kiln for my first firing. Later, I was soaked in Pyrolusite, which gave me those lovely shadows, and went back into the kiln to become stronger and more durable.

Then came my colorful transformation—painted from head to toe in vibrant hues, complete with expressive eyes to see the world. Screw eyes for strings were glued securely, and leather joints were carefully attached to ensure I moved smoothly. Each joint was adjusted perfectly—no mismatched arms or legs for me!

Finally, strings were tied to my limbs and connected to a controller. After all this careful crafting, I was complete—a charming, fully functional little puppet, ready to take on magical adventures. Now you know, it’s no small feat to create a little puppet like me!
