My Yoda replica is essentially a self-taught "master class" on the full process of creature fabrication. I used research from both the original "Star Wars" film series and more recent versions. This project is still a work-in-progress; things I learned in the first attempt are helping me to improve the process for a better version. Ultimately he will be a fully functional puppet, as close to the original character as possible.
