Photos of the finished Freddy

Today I got sent some photos of the finished Freddy puppet on set.
Freddys Crazy Kitchen is a stop motion Pilot by Cecile Noldus, a Hamburg based film maker and artist.
She says, that she's happy with the head I fabricated for the puppet, so it is good to hear that.
I am really looking forward to seeing the finished film. It is full of wonderful ideas.
