Look into the camera, Verdigris - or at least try to. Lovely photo by DC Photo (link below) taken at #Thamescon this weekend. Verdigris inspired heavily by #TheDarkCrystal with a dose of @empire_lrp as he was originally a non-player character creature for that game. https://www.facebook.com/dcphotodc/ #monster #clockworkfirebird #verdegris #TheDarkCrystal #stiltbeast #costume #mask #puppeteer #puppet #fullbodyperformance https://www.instagram.com/clockbirddesign/p/Bw6wTqNlY-3/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xqvx0f8ibf3n

Suddenly went quiet at #Thamescon on Sunday because it was hard to post updates whilst on stilts or absolutely starstruck! Verdigris was a big hit and we won the Best Handmade category in the Cosplay contest! What I love is that younger kids thought he was awesome and approachable but apparently I terrified adults. Whoops. Dark Crystal generation! #monster #clockworkfirebird #verdegris #TheDarkCrystal #stiltbeast #costume #mask #puppeteer #fullbodyperformance https://www.instagram.com/clockbirddesign/p/Bw6r5K_lxRv/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=xu0gw22s27wb

And here we are! Or I am? It's odd when piloting a character or puppet, I tend to refer to the character as a separate entity from the performer inside.
