Like something from a dark nightmare; these are the puppets that Satan would use if he liked hosting little girl’s birthday parties while reenacting scenes from dawn of the dead. Scott makes scary puppets, but his skills aren’t limited to tethered homunculus’. He also enjoys long walks on the beach and carving out life sized nudes in the earth itself.
Listing influences from Edward Gorey, Tim Burton, to the Brothers Quay. He’s pretty much nailed down his artistic style. It seems to me that an obvious inclusion would have been Brian Froud who has also designed puppets, but maybe that’s just a given.
