adam kreutinger has been a touchstone in spreading the art of puppetry and making it more accessible to people across all skill levels. the puppetry community is already so small, and we are very much feeling his loss; he has left some lofty shoes to fill.

if you are at all interested in getting into puppetry, even if you are an absolute novice and have zero experience, i'd recommend checking out puppet nerd. his glove puppet tutorial helped me to make my first ever handmade puppets—it's super easy to follow and made me feel so much more capable.

i'd also suggest looking to see if there's any local puppetry in your area that you can support. along with programming for kids, there's a wide array of local theaters that host workshops and adult puppetry slams. PSN has a whole map of them, if you need a place to start.

finally, if you're able, considering donating to support adam's family during this difficult time:

Started this little show called DandaDan? It's pretty good. It's made me laugh AND cry already. It's the most fun I've had with a battle shonen in a while. I can't wait for TurboGonzo to be animated 🐸 🐷 👽 👻

Hey, I have some questions about this guy, because you said he plays the lute sometimes and I am a huge music nerd.

So, music-wise, what does he prefer? Loud, soft, fast, slow, high, or low? Would he rather dance a waltz or the tango? Would he tonally prefer the sound of a recorder or a shawm?(Renaissance era oboe) And how much would he move as he plays or listens to music?(ranging from tapping toes to full on dancing)

I don't know what time he's from, but if he plays the lute the music he's accustomed to is nearly guaranteed to be similar to the music of the Renaissance, and I guess I was wondering if Susato's music would match his vibe, or if he'd prefer the music of a different composer. (Susato is the only Renaissance composer I really know, guess I'm not that much of a music nerd)

Also, March 21st is World Puppetry Day, letting you know now because I will probably forget about it later, and your puppets deserve to be celebrated.

WOOOO!! That's a lot of questions l!! Ok ok I'll try my best to answer this!!

Alright so HE specifically doesn't play the lute, his friend does, this guy just really likes it! And, well, imagine your little brother borrowing your guitar or ukulele and messing around with it. That's what he usually does XD, although he's trying to learn from the other guy, he's a beginner!

As for the music he'd like, definitely something fast and loud!! I think he likes dancing, so something happy and quick is definitely his style!! But I'm sure he can appreciate the calming rhythm of something slower too... I'm not much of a music nerd, so some of the stuff you mentioned I'm not really familiar with. But I love classical music, so I'd say something like Waltz of the Flowers, Flight of the Bumblebee or the Can Can would hit the spot!!

I think he'd prefer tango, but he's still a kid so I think he'd rather boogie it down alone! I listened to both the recorder and shawm and would say the recorder would be more his thing, sounds more natural. He wouldn't know the difference between a lot of music or their composers, just that it made him feel something good. That's what he wants when listening to something!

I don't have a specific time his world is set in, it's a whole other universe! But yeah, I'd like to think around the Renaissance, more Middle Ages and the time of Knights and Kings, when Legends of Camelot were told...

Thank you SO much for telling me about world puppet day!! I would've missed it!! Also really nice of you taking so much interest in Little Knight, but just to avoid any confusion, he's a JOINT character I made with my sibling. So I can't take all the credit!! (Forgot to mention that in the first place XD) But, again, I don't really feel comfortable having others draw him I'm afraid, the drawing's really cool tho!! Thank you!! But I'd appreciate it if people didn't make fanart...

I know you probably didn't know that when you drew this, but I hope you understand! I don't have the same joy others do when they're showing off their OCs, maybe I'll get better at that in the future! But thank you regardless!! :D

Adding up Sunny to the spikey pile of my ocs ☀🪓

Another goober for @evillillad 's metal au >:3c

The typical rebel kid character that rejects any kind of authority and likes to do silly shenanigans and pranks (violence) for fun. Despite the mischief they can cause, Sunny is rather shy in person.

Their music preference is a blend of mostly punk rock,grunge, nu metal and hip hop genres and it's pretty inconsistent as they enjoy giving a listen to new things frequently

The type of guy that dresses like emo Adam Sandler on daily basis but gives the best fashion advice if you ask her. Enjoys art in any shape and form, loves to craft things himself (sewing preferably) and if you happen to become their friend you'll most likely regularly receive some funky handmade stuff from her :3

Speaking of friends I don't think they'd have much or any at all, like what life did you expect after running away from home Sunny smhhhh.

But Sunny has his cats and he's happy about it!! Lives by herself with at least a couple of them

Few doodles + not colored ver cuz it looks nicer to me
