I made a chicobo puppet~! This is what was keeping me so busy for the last couple of months! I decided to make a baby chocobo for PAX Australia, as a bunch of cosplay friends were doing Final Fantasy costumes.

There's a bunch of hidden tricks with my chicobo puppet (his name is "Bobbin") - the tail and wings move, and he can raise his crest.

If you'd like to see him in action, there's a video here: youtu.be/CksXhGFTlfk?t=4m5s (Excuse my nervousness, I've never been good with camera interviews.)
