Today in Baking we made pies. (I know that has nothing to do with plushies, hold your horses. It will make sense in a moment.) In a moment of intelligence (and laziness) last class, I told the teacher I would make Key lime pie. My reason could have been because my brother loves Key lime pie and his birthday is coming up...but it's not. It could have been because it's the only pie filling in the book that everyone in the family will like (except me)...but it's not. The real reason I chose Key lime pie? It has four steps. Mix eggs with condensed milk. Mix in lime juice. Pour in baked pie crust. Chill. No muss, no fuss, out of class before I'm bust. (Hey, that kind of rhymed! Kind of.)
Most of the other people were slaving over apple, pumpkin, or cherry fillings...except one. As we waited together for the oven to heat so we could put our crusts in we started talking about all sorts of things, from cakes to games to game-related cakes...and so on.
To bring everything around to the title (finally!) I told her about a blog she oughta submit pictures of some of her cakes (nifty cakes that geeks would lust for...like Star Wars insignia and suchlike) to a blog I watch - the video game craft blog found somewhere to the right of this post.
Then I got started talking about stuff I draw (on the subject of geekdom), and I mentioned the plushies I draw (DRAW! Not sew/make but DRAW! This is a sore point with me online...I get comments all the time of people going "Will you make that for me?" Aargh.)
I realized then that I never put up any plushies here on the blog.
So as I promised, my fellow Key lime pie maker, here are (some of) the plushie pictures!
This is (I think) the first plushie I really did like this. I've done plushies for a while, but this is the beginning of this evolution of them. Big round arms and legs and dots for eyes. All details of the original characters remain, just made smaller.
This is Bakura, from Yugiou, one of my favoritest characters ever.
This is the "old-style" plushie, before I started inking with thin-tip Sharpies. Also before I knew how to colour very well.
This is Naruto, from the anime Naruto. Still just pencil lines, but better colouring.
This is one of the first plushies to have Sharpie outlines. I think it really adds to it. It's Vincent, from one of the Final Fantasy games.
Did a couple of Disney plushies once. ^^" Robin Hood.
Maleficent
Finally, these last two are, for some reason, the most popular of the plushies I have up on DeviantArt. Go figure.
Kakashi from Naruto.
Axel from the Kingdom Hearts series.
These are just a few of the many plushies I've done. You can find all of the anime/game/other plushies I've done at http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v607/rana-chan/Plushies/?start=0
I've also done a lot of custom plushies for people, too.
Cute, ne? ^^
