An updated version of this plush. I used some of the same techniques but it didn't take me as long. Maybe a week? (as opposed to 2 weeks on the first one.) This was a christmas present for a friend.

The can of tab is magnetic this time and sticks to his hand. It's also larger for a better scale. The last one was too small. He is made out of alova and minky which was pleated to look like the layered rags. I did the same thing for the queen's ring PM plush. This time I also stuffed the legs so they don't feel as flimsy. I thought it was a good idea before but it makes them feel like they'll fall apart if I do that.

This is not for sale and I don't sell Homestuck merchandise, sorry.

Also please do not ask for patterns/tutorials

I hate to have to stress this but tutorials take a lot of time and effort to be useful to anyone because I have to take into account any tacit knowledge I take for granted and include it in there as well as the refining process of a pattern. You could go find tutorials on the site that already exist and use those as a stepping stone in creating your own though, it's a good learning experience c:

That's great to hear!

If you want to start out with some trial and error, I suggest finding already made patterns to practice on. It will help you with your perception of volume when making your own patterns. I also suggest starting with fleece and moving up to alova (for smaller details) and minky (for just how nice it feels). Fleece is an easy to use fabric that has a high capacity for hiding seams.

I have a tutorial in my gallery on how to make squiddles, which links to a better one lol. People have used mine because it's easier to follow but personally I think it's harder to make than the one I linked to on account of all the ladder stitching.

If you look up the tutorials on devart you're sure to find some good patterns to play with. Good luck!
