Description Here is the 4-legged plsuhie assembled- [link]

Yup, you guessed it, It's Astrocat. I actually wanted to make a Hex but I didn't have the materials for him but had for Astrocat. As usual with the first prototype there's a few things that need fixing with this pattern. I want my second prototype with the improved pattern to be Hex when I have enough money to buy materials for it (making these is not cheap!)

This plush has a jointed neck so you can turn her head. The pink was added but using watered down red acyclic paint. The jewellery is made of craft foam.

She is 28cm high by 36cm long (not including the tail which is another 52cm!)

This is was actually an old wig that I had used for something else and now wasn't needed.

You can buy the Kanekelon hair here- [link]
It's basically what's used on synthetic wigs.

You have to make the loose stuff into wefts and sew on which is a bit time consuming. You can buy a wig pre-made wefts but that's a lot more expensive ^^

Also, Kanekelon can be styled and set in place by putting hot water on it. You'll need to avoid getting the boiling water on the fur though, as it might affect the texture.

Wow, this plushie of Astro just looks so totally amazing, cute and deadly adorable!!! And somehow she also looks huge!!! Just love the way how you did her, because you have such a great talent on making so adorable plushies, even if this must be lots of work, but I guess it's always worth it, because the outcomes just look so fantastic!!! And here also as well!!! Just love the whole plush pattern and her hair looks so amazing!!! And also great job on making her jewellery Came out nice as well as the died pink fur ^.^
If you're ever doing commissions for these ( even if they won't be cheap I guess XD ) I just would love to order one, even if this means saving lots of money, but it's just so worth it!!! Oh and also good look on making a Hex plush!!!

Yay! Thanks for the praise!
Ooh, I have forgotten to say how big she was in the discription! I'll have to add that detail. I can't wait to make a Hex, i've finally got all the materials now to make him!

And wow!!! She's indeed huge but super adorable as well XD And never thought her tail would be that long XD
Yay, sounds great!!! Can't wait to see him finished one day and hope you will have fun making him!!!

well prices vary between £20- £140 depending on the type of plushie and complicated it is. Hopefully I will have time to take some more commission next year, just had no time this year to really do any!

It looks very difficult to make.

Astrocat In reply to EvitaMeaglin [2010-10-22 09:21:14 +0000 UTC]

It's not too bad, it's just a little time consuming due to small parts having to be hand sewn. Yup, just had to do a biiiiiiiiiiig tail, I kept thinking maybe I'd made it too long but once I added to the body it was just right! XD

OOMMMGGGG I WAAAAAANT. That is SO cute there hun! I really love it! You are such a great plushie maker do you know that? Go on admit it These plushies are so cute IRL!

Astro looks so adorable, I'm really loving that face, personally I see nothing wrong with it, it looks like a chibified version of your fursona, which I'm sure anybody would go gaga for!

Such cute work hun! Well done! When you've perfected this (though I see no need for improvement), I must commission you!
