I'm Marty. I make a lot of stuff.

Claudius Von Cudgel is back!
In honor of Chapter 7 of Theodore & the 7 Layers of Space, I humbly present a very limited re-release of one of my favorite Sock Puppet Portrait characters I’ve ever created, The Baron Claudius Von Cudgel.
The chapter also includes appearances from Auntie Nanaface and Sgt Bullocks, both of who are currently available, but it has been several years since I’ve offered Claudius. This is a limited first edition of 20. Get in there!
Nine Time Is Up!!! Series 2 is here!
The final Nine-time is here: Sunday the Sparklecorn! We enter 2023 triumphantly by offering another brand new Sock Puppet Portrait character - a salute to my most successful style of sock puppets that I offer for sale. She loves to eat glitter and smells like cupcakes and is very good at D&D.
Nine-time was a self-imposed structure I created in order to build a Seres of nine new sock puppet portrait characters. On the ninth of every month from May 9, 2022 - January 9, 2023 , I released a new Sock Puppet Portrait character. Three brand new and six old school re-releases, but all in new styles with new packaging, frames, and dated and edition-ed tags. For NINE Months! Like a baby, but pictures of socks to build an all new Series of nine characters!
I’m thrilled now to present the SERIES 2, VERSION 2 Sock Puppet Portraits! TAH DAHHH!
