Here is an article from a local newspaper about EF.

There's also the two-minute report from the MDR programme "Sachsen-Anhalt heute", which according to the MDR web site, had ratings of 5% and an absolute number of viewers of 40,000. Which isn't that bad for an evening show in the regional opt-out window of a tri-state public broadcaster that's usually only watched by the... ahem, 60+ target group.

The media echo was bigger than usual this year, yet very positive overall. Even the most notorious German tabloid "BILD" wrote a fairly harmless and balanced article below the lurid headline "Monster-Alarm in Magdeburg".

Minor correction: No matter what FNP and other papers write, I'm not specialising in building "small plush creatures". They probably confused me with the two pawpeteers standing next to me during the interview. So don't even try commissioning me for custom plushies ;-)

So, about that minature Tiger commission, Luxen, I wanted to add wings, how much will that be extra?

Curse my inability to understand German But it's cool that the media was positive and didn't just do the normal questioning hunt for scandal etc.

thank the gods for google translator, even if some of it become a mess, it's still readable.

may one ask who it was?
couse that person is VERY skilled^^
i knew i heard the name at the end of the pawpet show, but, i tend to never be able to remember names =/

You mean the custom built hand puppets? The character design was created by Pan Hesekiel Shiroi. The puppet pattern designs were created by Xan(aeth), as well as the final touches on the puppets. Sewing was done by the EF pawpet team and several helpers.

The Lords of The Sky rod puppets were built by Runo based on a character design by Pan, with electronics being built by Furvan.
