Victorian Undertakers
Loosely based "Julian & Sandy" tribute.
This pair of puppet could almost have gone into the 'Traditional Puppets" section.
They were a staple of many Punch shows in the eighteenth and early nineteenth century when the 'Hanging Routine' regularly ended the show.
When Punch had dispatched the Hangman, these two would bring up a coffin, put Jack Ketch into it, dance around with it and throw it up in the air then drop it out of sight.
Just for fun , I thought it might be a hoot to loosely base mine on Kenneth Williams and Hugh Paddick as their 'Jules and Sandy' characters.
As always with Pulp Sculpting, it will require many layers of work.
I really should have made life easier for myself by making them just generic faces.
Managed to rig them up to cut them on the bandsaw, to lengthen their faces,
