More contact with Nick Roberson

Yesterday I sent and email to Nick with some photos of my Jack and Jill puppets:

"Hi Nick,
Here are some pictures of my animation puppets now that they are 98% finished. Sorry the quality isn't that great. I'll try and get some better pics sent to you eventually, probably after I have created their mouths and eyelids. (Hence only being 98% done.)
I hand stitched all of their clothing and they are stuffed with wadding. The skin on their hands and arms is made from 'Tesco stretch fabric strapping'. It worked suprisingly well.
Alistair"

Today I got a reply:

"Hi Alistair,
They look great, it certainly is worth all that effort with the costumes. That is an area that lets a lot of people down. I wish you all the best with the animation, Have fun. I can't wait to see more which is the sign of good work. Keep in touch,
Nick."
I certainly will be keeping in touch!
