Except that while uploading a few new pics of my build to my flickr pages , I stopped to have a little look around Flickr.
Les Clarke has a wonderful set in his albums of him remaking a Laughing Policeman.
Both the new figure , and the older one he is updating are quite superb to behold ..really characterful and bold in style.
The Laughing Policeman looks Punch and Judy sized ...I am not sure if it is part of his Show ? , or a warm up figure used outside the booth ? or a puppet used for something else entirely ?
But it is wonderful workmanship.
I won't put on the link - as it is not my page to do so - (Anyone already viewing Les' flickr pages will already know where to look.)
But perhaps next time he is on here Les might add a link himself , along with a word or two about how he uses this splendid puppet perhaps ?
There are also some pics on there of a carved Devil head before it is painted ...again quite wonderful , bold carving : really nice to see .
