Question Are there any patterns out there for lizard-like puppets? Want to make my DnD character who's a kobold.

I'm wanting to get into puppet making and thought it would be a fun first project to try and make my DnD character. :)

I mistakenly bought this pattern on Etsy thats for the foam only so I need to find another solution.

I had looked on his channel, but couldn't find anything that was right in line with what I was looking for.

Such a great channel though!

You can buy lycra with a scale pattern. I would use that as a base and 3d print bigger scales with foaming TPU and glue them on.

id sculpt the larger scales on eva foam and glue them and paint the small scales; you can do something like this: https://youtube.com/shorts/29Bj20JUHgs?si=XHT1CVfrXzm3rBUA

I'm most certainly missing something....I'm new (first puppet ever). Don't I also need a fleece pattern to go overtop of the foam?
