I was extremely fortunate to work on some sculptures for the Political satire puppet series:
Puppet Nation
Here are some of my projects from the show.
All puppets start with a design based of the cartoons of Jonathan Zapiro. Back then we simply used a grid pattern to identify slight variations of the drawings.
I would do a quarter scale maquette sculpt and the final full size head sculpt.

Winnie Mandela:
Trevor Noah:
Robert Mugabe:
Manatashe:
Vavi :
Barak Obama:
This must be my last maquette, I do not recall sculpting the full puppet. He turned out great!
Will try to find the sculptor responsible and add credit here
The show is still going with a growing cast of seriously funny caricatures by talented new sculptors:

I agree, that it feels fortunate working with these cool art works because I experienced also to work in art show, we're the one who assisting the sculptor while they doing their craft like sculpture supply what they need. And since then I did not stop making craft.
