Latest plushOriginally blogged at www.alittlestranger.com, please comment there :)

I just finished this. She's a brand new design, the very first one of her kind and she is now for sale in my shop. She's based on some painting's i've been doing, ill have to get some snaps of those too! She is quite big and really squashy, with a bean bag in her bum so she's like a weeble - she wobbles about but wont fall over :)
As usual she has a hand cast, handpainted resin face sculpted by me. Her antennaes have wire in so you can bend them around. Next on my list is having a go at making a little version.

She is totally one of a kind and unique, and you can buy her here .

I've just added a new full size plush to my etsy shop, a not-so-scary zombie :)

She is for sale here

She has weighted feet and a weighted bottom and free moving teddy bear joints in her shoulders and hips so she can sit and stand unassisted. Her head is sewn on but still has enough movement to allow you to pose her easily.

Big and Little Bears

Originally posted at www.alittlestranger.com please comment there :)

I think the little bear looks so cute next to one of my big plushes! He turned out soo much smaller than i imagined, he's only 5" tall :)

It makes me want to try making an even smaller one, The only thing limiting the small-ness is the joints, so if i can do away with them it will only be my nimbleness and eyesight keeping me from making a smaller bear :P

It was fun making a little bear but i think this project will be on hold for a while as i've got lots of custom orders to work on.
The little blue bear is not for sale but the big pink bear for sale here.

I've just added this albino bunny to my shop - right in time for Easter!

She's made from super soft velvet with a bobby faux sheepskin head and ears. She has long white fluffs coming out of her ears, which are poseable with soft-coated armatures inside. I carefully airbrushed over each joint and seam to give her an antique look.

As with all my toys she is totally unique and one-off and for sale here

So I made this Flower-bunny brooch hybrid as a bit of an experiment, and before we went out on Friday me Alicia and Vicky took some 'promo' shots for the website. Not quite sure how effective they'd be as advertising but they sure were fun to take! 

What do you think of the new brooch design - should i make some for the shop?

Heres some pictures of one of my newest plushes. Her name is Florence (im really into Florence and the Machine at the moment) she is a squid girl who never fitted in at the bottom of the sea, so she came to land to make some friends. She smokes Marlboro reds

I wanted to make another octo-girl, like the one i made for the APW gallery show last halloween (more pictures here ) but 've lost the pattern 0__0 Hopefuly it'll turn up soon!

A Trip to the Woods

Yesterday some of my animals came with me for a walk around the woods, and look who we found - a funny pink bear!

Brown Woodland creature

Brown Woodland Creature

She was a custom order. I wouldn't have thought to make one in natural colour but i'm really glad i did! I like to make toys that I would want to buy, which quite often sucks because then i never want to sell them! ;)

I love doing custom orders because I tend to get requests for something a little different from what i would normally make.

I am coming to the end of my run of this face sculpt. I only have a few of these resin faces left, and don't intend to re-cast it. Instead I have a new (and very different!) face sculpt that will be available soon! If you would like your own custom creature made with this style of face please get in touch.

Please comment on my blog, here :)

Green Raccoon-Bear

  • Feb. 20th, 2009 at 1:21 PM

Green Raccoon-bear

For sale in my Etsy shop!

 

"This little raccoon-bear is a one-off art toy. She's around 12" tall (not including her ears) Her face is an original sculpt by Holly Stanway (me!), which I then handcast in resin, painted and sealed with 3 layers of matte lacquer and 5 layers of gloss on her eyes and lips.

She has weighted feet and paws and free moving teddy bear joints in her shoulders, hips and neck so she can sit and stand unassisted. She has a soft stripey raccoon tail.

I absolutely love making these little guys and have a great time picking out soft tactile fabrics to make each one a joy to hold, and i hope that shows! She has been made with every care and is designed to be hugged to your hearts content, but she is really an art piece and i would not recommend her for a young child because of the long pile fur fabric and painted face."
