The originals of these videos were incredibly helpful. So nice to see a recut/remastered sort of release now. Feels strange without that music looping!

@PuppetNerd Ай бұрын

So many people complained about the music. At the time I thought it made the videos look more professional. But it was just annoying.

I watched your videos years ago to learn how to make puppets and since then I have made dozens of puppets to donate to children undergoing long-term treatment in hospitals, and to kids in counseling in need of a friend to talk to. The puppets have helped many kids get through difficult times. Thank You.

I really appreciate you suggesting people practice on the free ones before buying a paid pattern. Good way to ensure people don’t get discouraged by taking on more than they are ready for right away. Also: grating Monster Clay is a great idea to condition it into a sculpt-able softness. :)

Hi adam, you've really inspired me since i was in middle school, ive wanted to make puppets but this art seemed so unattainable, but your videos showed me that puppet making and puppeteering is incredibly approachable. I've made a puppet for myself and im currently working on one for my little sisters birthday. Thank you!❤❤ I hope you make a full recovery❤

It's so interesting watching this as an ex-fursuit maker. You might want to watch some videos on that process because the processes are very similar and I think you might be able to shave off a few steps in your process that are "unnecessary".

@AVspectre Ай бұрын

I am always fascinated by the overlapping skills and techniques between different creative paths and areas. I enjoy watching all sorts of creators, builders, makers, crafters, artists do their amazing work and its a joy to see the similarities and differences in approaches.

I just watched Arlo's video from a few months ago who mentioned you & your channel & your health issue. My heart sank knowing that your channel may have gone dormant in the time since his video, but i'm so pleased to see that you're still uploading! In another life (where i have disposable income) I would LOVE to have a puppet made by you. Thanks for being such a positive influence on the platform, and thanks for giving me the opportunity to reflect. Take care mate, I wish you all the best! I'll be tuning in to your channel regularly from now on :)

Hello, I didn't know how to contact you, so I'm giving you a little comment. For my stories that I tell with "Fréquence Interdite", I would eventually like to design a slightly frightening puppet which, like Crypte Show did at the time, will help me tell my stories in a new way. Do you have any advice for making this puppet ? Maybe one of your videos that I haven't seen yet ? Anyway, I love your work. Thank you very much for everything you do. Kisses from France 😘

For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him.

Kreutinger's Puppets was a better name in my opinion. "Puppet Nerd" makes it seem like there is something negative or "nerdy" about being creative and nothing could be further from the truth. It's nerdy as hell (and worse; it's BORING) not to be creative.

@XemeraldXD Ай бұрын

Nerd doesnt have to be a negative word! And in terms of branding, Puppet Nerd is easier to remember. Also, the man has brain cancer, cut him some slack man-

@NickUncommon Ай бұрын

Mit seems, the Nerd connotation has experienced a paradigm shift from awkward and undesirable towards nerdy being a cool attribute. I am.sort of proud, that I have been already a nerd, before it was considered cool ;-) in the case of special interest, you gain a lot of expertise in your field, because you put in the hours to get really good with it.

@user-cg5zd3of6d Ай бұрын

@@NickUncommon I don't agree with that. It's an intentionally covert disinformation term.
