New Cast Members On The Way!

I'm sorry that I haven't posted much lately.
I've been very busy at work.

So here's some updates. Thanks to Jonathan Little, a new Wippet is in production by the name of Wilbur. He's a shy fellow, made with tender loving care. Below are the sketches I did for the puppet, I had the most fun designing this guy, simpler is always better.

I'm really excited about this guy,
I can't wait till his construction is complete,
I've been practicing his voice already.

Also, thanks to Brian Hogg at Hoggworks studios, we will soon have a new puppet named Jerry. He's a rotten salesman, out to swindle you for everything you've got!

NEWS UPDATE

Phil has recently announced that he is the new self-appointed General Manager of The Wippets. With this new found authority he promises to streamline production, cut down on expenses, find new and affordable talent, hire better make-up artists and assistants, improve working conditions, and find more comfortable poles to rest on.

This is what Spafford had to say in a recent interview in regards to these claims:

"I don't think he can pull off this type of job and remain professional, he's a wuss! In fact I think I could do a better job running this outfit... there would be plenty more dames around if I were in charge that's for sure."

Here's what Hep Cat had to say about the situation:

"I haven't had the pleasure of working with Phil directly yet, but I am cautiously optimistic on his statements about improving the production flow. As long as there's a bigger budget for whips, handcuffs and leather in future episodes, then I'm all for it."

Phil's response to the controversy:

"I'd just like to mention the fact that only 24 hours after I began my new tasks as Wippets' General Manager that I was able to promote the latest show online with unprecedented results! On January 29th the Wippets ranked NUMBER ONE in Canada under the category of "Most Viewed Comedy" on YouTube. I do believe my marketing skills speak for them self."

Can Phil wrangle these future puppet stars and whip them into shape? Only time will tell.
