Final Project Idea

The name of my book is going to simply be "Dudes", featuring the muppet-like characters I like to doodle. In the book they'll do all sorts of things, while using pop-up elements throughout.

One dude alone (large fold-out of one dude face along the center fold)

Two dudes on the phone. (pop up on opposite sides of the page with string in between)

They all line up. (Several dudes standing along the center fold)

But one hides in a cup. (dude pops up through a cup using a push/pull tab)

Dudes are every place. (several dudes with different expressions on box supports)

With every kind of face. (Jacob's ladder type mechanism that cycles through expressions)

A parade of dudes.

And alternating moods. (push/pull tab alternates facial expressions)

Snakes and monsters creep (curly paper element that pops up)

in their dreams, while they sleep. ( several dudes pull down under the covers using pull tab)
