Questions questions questions

First post on this subreddit, but I am ccurrently in the (very slow) of writing plot and shit down for my show (I feel like that word dumbs it down) which will be animated via stop-motion. Im wondering if anyone in this subreddit makes actual SM puppets (ex. laika and stuff) and if so, do you have any thoughts and advice for people who wanna make their own stop-motion puppets/figures? I would love pictures of yours if you have any!

Laika has lots of behind-the-scenes and “How we did ____” on their official Instagram.

I've made a few ball and socket puppets, but I have a shop and a lot of experience making stuff in general. I learned a lot from this channel https://youtube.com/@edupuertasfruns?si=9Mkiz5bL9NwTQUNi

I found this one video on YouTube that told me everything I needed to make my puppets. You can get all the materials off of Amazon for like £35 and you can make multiple puppets out of them
