I Dug Up Some Photos Of Two Plushies From Probably A Little Under 3 Years Ago Now ^v^

I dug up some photos of two plushies from probably a little under 3 years ago now ^v^

These guys are from a fairly obscure game I fixated on a while ago called "Keep In Mind". You may have heard of it since both Markiplier and Jacksepticeye played it at one point, it was a pretty short game with a 2D pixel artstyle about overcoming personal demons (that's the most basic explanation I can give)

Anyways, the characters pictured here are named Suppression and Panic. I didn't have white fleece while making Suppression so I opted for faux fur, plus both of these guys have squeakers in their bellies :]

I had plushies planned for pretty much every other Keep In Mind character, but the fixation wore off before I could make anyone else. It might be kinda fun to make another one of these guys with my current plushmaking skills and style, although there are many more projects that take priority now so it's not very likely.

Hello everyone! I've gotten back from my road trip now, and boy do I have a lot of photography to share! So much in fact that I'm going to split it up into multiple posts. This post in particular contains all my toy photography from the first day. Enjoy! ^v^

[I'll be putting the majority of the photos under the "Read More" since it's such a long post]

Last progress update for the Bombshell plush, my boy's almost done!! All I've gotta do now is finish assembling his little head horn and attach it ^v^

[Sidenote: His eyes will look a bit different in the completion photos, I realised they were too small so I ended up redoing them]

Im loving your ben 10 and transformers drawings, i like the details 🥰

Do you have any art tips or tutorials about how to draw non-human characters?? I try to draw a ectonurite oc and wasn't working well for me

Thanks a bunch!! I love drawing Transformers and Ben 10 things ^v^

Admittedly, I don't feel very confident in my ability to give drawing advice. Most of my process boils down to "I dunno, I just kept trying to scribble these things until they worked how I wanted them to"

That being said, I think the best tip I can give you is to look at the similarities between the human and non-human bodies, and then skew their anatomy accordingly.

I'll try to explain what I mean here:

First, let's take a look at Bumblebee. Most Transformers are very humanoid in appearance, especially in the Gen 1 cartoon. The main difference is the vehicle parts still visible in robot mode, as well as how blocky these guys tend to be.

I've traced over both Example Guy and Bumblebee with coloured pen to highlight the basic form that both of them share.

Now let's take a look at Ghostfreak. Ghostfreak's body strays a little further from the usual humanoid form. From the chest down, his body trails off into a singular ghostly tendril. Although form the chest up, he's pretty much got the basic humanoid form (ignoring the fact that he's lacking almost all facial features)

Once again, I've traced over both Example Guy and Ghostfreak to highlight their similarities.

I hope I've explained this well enough, and I hope this helps!!

I took Bombshell to the playground the other day :]

Bonus:

The moon! :0

Evening walk with Rumble :)
