Rather busy the past couple of days but I thought I would get this one in before the end of the week.<\/p>\n

I had two new pieces in the Art Show at LunaCon this year.<\/p>\n

One was a griffin and the other a Calot.<\/p>\n

The griffin was at Caroline\u2019s request. She wanted a griffin baby based on the Skylanders\u2019 character Sonic Boom\u2019s babies. After drafting the patterns, I decided to make another one for sale. It took me a bit to get the legs the way I wanted them so that the critter would stand up without help or plushie flop.<\/p>\n

\n(For the Visually Impaired: This is a griffin. It is blue with a yellow beak. The tail has a little black fur tuft to give it a lion-like look. The wings are blue as well. The eyes are green with large pupils. It has long triangular ears on top of its head.)<\/p>\n

The calot (which is from John Carter\/Barsoom) was put together pretty fast but I used what I have learned from other stuff animals, I was able to make the pattern in good time. The skin was a lucky find at the fabric store. I thought about adding fangs but I am still of two minds about that. It has 6 six legs rather than 10 because I tried 10 and it was way too crowded so I understand why Disney used 6. I think the purple tongue makes it work.<\/p>\n

\n(For the Visually Impaired: This is a calot. Its skin is a brown sandy color with some slightly darker splotches at random places. He is \u201csitting\u201d up on a plexiglass stand. He has 6 legs and a horseshoe nose. He has a purple tongue sticking out of his mouth)<\/p>\n

So those are the new characters to the group.<\/p>\n

This week was regroup week before I start on the next set of projects.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
