U dont need to "sell" the Atlas Plushie to me, u can make it a "Present" to me, and then i will make a "present" to u in form of a PaySafe Card or something like that ^^

[Ragashar]

Any new pics to show us?

And don't send it to Garth directly, send it to someone else there and have them capture the video of the moment when he sees the plushie and add it here for all of us to see...

New pictures now yes.

That is a very good idea, I would love to see his reaction when he sees his plushie for the first time. I'm sure others would love to see his reaction as well

Hello everyone!

First things first. Thank you for all those who have been asking about my Cicada plushie on the battlefield, it gives me lots of motivation to continue making more plushies. Thank you for kicking my butt, I really need and appreciate it.

It's been a long time when I last time posted any pictures of the progress here. I'm honest and will tell you that I've been very lazy, I haven't felt like making any plushies. I make these plushies for fun so I will make them only when making them doesn't feel like a burden.

The most challenging part of making this plushie has been finding a perfect fabric. The fabrics I ordered from the online arrived... At least half of them. They didn't have the other fabric in stock anymore so now I only have the fabric I bought for my Cicada. I bought 6 meters of it and my Cicada needs 4 meters. Maybe, just maybe, it would be enough for the Garth's plushie too. I might need to resize the patterns... We'll see.

All patterns are finally done now and I can start working on the fabrics.

Don't ask me why I have so many kids' bedtime story books...

---------------------------------

12. Patterns are finally done. I made some little changes to legs' patterns and I made patterns for feet and that thing right below the CT.


13. From a different angle.


14. Here you can see the "thing right below the CT" a bit better.


15. Here's the foot.


16. From the front.



17. From above.


18. All the parts I made.


19. Here is the picture of the fabric I will use to the Cicada plushie.


20. This is my old and loyal sewing machine. Nothing fancy but it looks cool, no?

Thank you for your patience!

You should put a little strap on it so Garth can Walk around with it gently resting on his head. :3
It would be even more adorable and a little humor around the office is never a bad thing!

[Dirk Le Daring]

Looking good Yawn. Nice work.

[Coralld]

This is relevant to my interest.

Can I has a Hunchback plushy?

Please...

Haha, I think this might be a little too big for a comfortable Cicada hat But who says it should be comfortable... We all have to suffer for beauty sometimes...

It's not fair to use kitty eyes, you know! I haven't decided what mech plushie I will make after this. A Catapult plushie is one of my priorities to make so unfortunately Hunchy's time isn't anytime soon Maybe someday is Hunchy's turn. If it ever happens I'll be contacting you!

All I understood were "ARCHER" , "what?!" and "DAANJAAZONE!". But yes, it's the Archer

----------------------------------

Now I have almost all the pieces I will need to make the Cicada plushie. It took hours to cut all of those, but finally it's done and I can start sewing. All of those pieces have a little piece of paper on them so I won't even accidentally forget what piece is what.

It's draft paper (not sure if it's called that in English but I would guess it's something like that), the same paper that is used for making patterns for clothes, so it's not meant for building things like these. It still works well enough so I can have some kind of picture how the plushie is going to look like.

Thank you, I'm glad you like them

If you are going to make some mech plushies, I will be watching those projects very closely!

Oh Eglar, Eglar... You know what is going to happen now, don't you? If you keep going like this all of your mechs will soon have only one leg.

Fantastic.

[Reconius]

If it couldn't be a hat then I'd say a special made Baby Carrier, but then i'd be getting carried Away!
Anyway, Absolutely Fantastic Work, and I'm surprised nobody has taken an in-game Pic of a Cicada-2A with a Mimic Camo.

I absolutely love this! Can't wait to see the finished product and/or the Garth surprising video! Great work.
