Step #1:
- Draw your design on a sheet of rawhide, accounting for the negative space that will be visible when this puppet is used to caste a shadow.
- To learn more about designing for shadows, see [en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wayang|this site]
- Any moving pieces -- such as limbs, gears, etc. -- should be designed as separate pieces.
- Cut out each piece of rawhide in a rough way so you can work on each piece individually.
- Do not try to cut the exact outline with your knife. This outline will be cut to the right shape with a chisel.
- Remember to do this too!
