Plush Commission Info - Felties

Felties

Made of felt (primarily) as the name implies, Felties are small, simple to make, and less expensive than my normal plush, perfect for someone on a budget, wanting a small gift for someone, or even someone that might want a lot of plushies but that doesn't have the money to spend on the bigger or more intricate kind.

Felties are made in a "two-and-a-half dimension" style, meaning that they will have a front and a back and aren't meant to be viewed from the sides. Some will have a right side and a left side, but aren't meant to be viewed from the front or back. This all depends on the design of the plush.

I make two kinds of felt plushies: animal-form or human-form.

Animal Form Felties:

Size: 4" tall or wide
Price: starts at $10
Estimated make time: 1-2 days 

While the price generally stays around $10, designs that are simpler will be a little less, while more intricate designs, if they are possible in the style of the plush, will be a tad bit more expensive. I can make just about any Pokémon or animal, though some may be difficult in the relatively simplistic style of the plush.

Humanoid Felties: 

Size: 6 inches tall 
Price: Starts at $20 
Estimated make time: 1 week 

Humanoid felties are exactly like the other felties, except a little bigger and, well, human or humanoid characters. Because there are generally more details for a humanoid feltie, including hair, facial features and clothing, humanoid felties are more expensive. However, like with all of my plush, simpler designs are cheaper, more detailed ones are more expensive. The pictured Britannia Angel feltie, for example, would probably be around $15 due to the relative simplicity of the design. As with the other felties, I can attach string to the top or the back so that the plush can hang.

Archive Posts - Plushies of 2011

2011 wasn't a very productive year for me, plush wise. I spent a lot of it making more generic "cute" plush - fried shrimp, sushi, rice balls, the works. I also started a new, full-time job, robbing me of a lot of spare time to make plush in. What few plush I made include:



Hungary from Axis Powers Hetalia - almost entirely fleece, with some felt (the gloves, boots and facial features, most notably). I think this is my best UFO style plush to date.


I wish I had a good enough camera to capture it on film - this Spiritomb glows in the dark. I painted all of the green and yellow spots with watered-down glow in the dark paint! It also has plastic beans in the "rock" part so that it can sit on almost any surface.


Hands down my favorite, and my most successful plush to date - my "fuzzy Joltiks". They are life-sized at around 8 inches long, and are made almost entirely out of fur, with fleece "feet" and hand-painted stone and glass beads for eyes. I've made seven of them, and sold all but one - the short-haired one, which was a gift for a friend.

2010 Plushies part 2 - the Felties

For the month of November, 2010, I did something a little insane. I decided that instead of trying to write a novel, I would try to make one plush per day - specifically, one feltie plush per day. I didn't quite make it to all thirty in the month, but I made quite a lot.

 
Before I could take commissions for the felties, I needed some examples, so I made a few favorites. Articuno, Oshawott and Snivy. Trivia: Oshawott and Snivy still have their Japanese names, because when I made the plush the games were only out in Japan and had no English equivalents!

During November (and parts of December), I managed to make:

Archive post - 2010 Plush (part one)

2010 was the first year I sold at a real Artist's Alley (I'd sold at NashiCon's before, but not actively). As a result I focused on a lot of small, cute, generic plush and in a way lost some of the focus I'd had the year before.

I started the year with more plush commissions:

I still consider the Ponyta to be one of my best fleece plush.

Archive Post - Plush of 2009

So, six conventions and eleven costumes in 2009 - with all that happening, surely I wasn't making plushies left and right as well, was I?

Of course I was.

My biggest accomplishment, in all senses of the word, in 2009 was undoubtedly Tadpole Jackson.

Archive Post - Plush of 2008

2008 was a busy year in terms of cosplay, but...not plushies. I only made three plush over the course of the year: 

    

Two versions of Boota, the pigmole from Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann, and one plush that I still consider to be one of my true masterpieces:

 Carbunkle from Final Fantasy 8. I made this with something called "fun fur", which is the crappiest material ever, but very soft and it really took marker well. The entire plush was made with the same fabric, I just sharpied the darker green and aqua blue parts to the correct color. The eyes and jewel on the forehead are felt. The thing is huge, a good 15 inches tall, and was entirely handsewn.

Archive Post - First Plushies

2007 was my first year in a real college setting, away from home. I went a little...insane. So I don't have a lot of cosplays to show for that year, but I did start making plushies for the first time.

A note before we begin! With the exception of Gluttony, I made every single plush here using this pattern by the awesome BabyLondonStar. The skins were all fleece, the hair was all felt (Izumi's was yarn), and the clothing was anything I could get my hands on at the time. I made all of these plushies (yes, all 11) in the span of about a month. I'm still not entirely sure how. I blame the insanity.

He turned out better than my Envy costume did *sob*
