    This is a wonderful tutorial. Had my class split up into teams of 3-4 and it took them about 1.5-2 hours to complete.

    Thank you so much for making this video! My son and I volunteer for a puppet guild and now my son needs to make a puppet for cub scouts. He loves marionettes too so this was the perfect tutorial we needed! You explained it very well and in simple terms that my 10 yr old could understand and be motivated! Thanks again!!!

    The tutorial is great, but I think the hips are missing in the man and that is what makes the shape a little strange, I think that the fact that the head is out of proportion doesn't matter that much.

    Cute for a kids project and basic enough that you can build on it to make a more detailed marionette. You can also add clear string attaching the feet to the hands to make them "walk." =)
