Tchaikovsky.

Meet Tchaikovsky! My brother has just been making a short film about the life of  Tchaikovsky for the Russians. It's twelve minutes, stop motion animation. The puppet himself is about 12 inches tall and absolutely beautiful - very elegant, very detailed, made by Mckinnon and Saunders who do all the puppets for Tim Burton's' work, and others. The film has been made in my brother's living room and the set is still in place! It has been a labour of love  and looks quite amazing. Son number 2 has been cameraman and lighting chap and they are both exhausted but delighted with it. it will either be premiered at the London Film Festival or Bradford animation festival. if you'd like to see more of his work take a peek here.
