Neil Hughes Puppet Illustration | Journeys End

Hibbert

My character design based on Hibbert from Journey’s End by R.C. Sherriff. He is a young officer in the trenches of World War I, struggling to balance duty with fear. Nervous and anxious, he masks his vulnerability with outward bravado, reflecting the quiet tension and human fragility behind the uniform.

Everyone in the kitchen seems to have their eye on him, but he’s always one step ahead, darting through corners and narrowly escaping capture. Full of energy, cunning and cheeky charm, Fry turns every close call into an adventure.
