This is a sculpture I've been making all year long, and finally got wrapped up.
I had sculpted a little prequel Yoda years ago for Sideshow, but I never had a chance to sculpt my favorite Yoda, the Stuart Freeborn puppet. If you want to gain a new respect for Stuart Freeborn and the genius team that made Yoda, try sculpting this little bugger....It's nearly impossible to capture him faithfully from scene to scene, because that puppet is a work of art, and so full of life, thanks to Frank Oz.
Yoda's body was sculpted in sculpey, and his head, hands, feet, necklace and cane were all made in wax. Final piece was cast in resin and painted with acrylics. BIG thanks to the great Michelle Nyree for giving me tips on the hair.
Enjoy! May the Force be with us all....
