Sakutama Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 Well...it's not my best work, and I did copy off the internet for inspiration. But here's my first Husky Plushy I made as an accessory for my purse so I can show off my Husky pride! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mydiamond Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 The eyes are light blue oops I mean.. what do you call that? The pupil of the eye? But pupils = students Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sakutama Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 oops I mean.. what do you call that? The pupil of the eye? But pupils = students Oooh! You know I could try that. But with those "kawaii" eyes in Japan I like so much, it's usually black eyes with a white "pupil" that is more like the light shining on the eyes. So I tried a light blue version for a Husky. And yes...I did copy my Avatar...just a little bit... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sakutama Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 naaah I had a bad taste it's cute btw Thanks! Next project is a Husky bag for work, sense I need a work bag anyway. I made Husky magnets already, but since I used pictures of Huskies I like off the internet, it might be strange if someone finds their Husky on my fridge.

Sakutama Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 won't be strange more like... "OMG my husky is famous!!" LOL selling your artworks? I could try, but I doubt anyone would want them. They are such low quality because I am not a very good artist. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katers91 Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 That is adorable!! I saw your post on dog treats too (well, I think it was you ) you're super talented, can't wait to see the bag! Have you thought of opening an etsy shop? I'd buy one! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mydiamond Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 They are such low quality because I am not a very good artist. give it a try first, bet you'll be surprised the husky plushy is actually quite tempting but I don't have paypal or credit card or even bank account x_x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I saw your post on dog treats too (well, I think it was you ) you're super talented, can't wait to see the bag! Have you thought of opening an etsy shop? I'd buy one! I have!! Goodness I have tried so many ideas, but I am such a perfectionist I just assume what I made isn't purchase-worthy, get frustrated, give up and try something else. The result is I can do a little of many things, but i'm not really-really good at one thing! I want to do the same thing with dog treats (edit: yes that was me!! ) , at the moment I am baking dog treats once a month as practice and giving out free samples to family and anyone who wants them in exchange for feedback. If someone wants to order some at some point, that'll be a great sign and at that point I might take further steps (licensing to sell food items, etc). give it a try first, bet you'll be surprised the husky plushy is actually quite tempting but I don't have paypal or credit card or even bank account x_x Ah but sense I copied this plushy from my avatar...not sure it would be right of me to sell it. It should be my original design...i'll work on an original design and see what I can come up with. I am also thinking about doing Sculpy/Femo again, I saw an adorable display at an art store and I could have sworn it was a Husky...turned out to be a Shiba but I was totally inspired. No I didn't make these! These are in a display at the art store. But I could! Doesen't the Shiba look like a Husky??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silly people, you made a Husky! we have a members artwork section, and we also have that "for sale/wanted" section down there.

Sakutama Posted April 19, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 OH!!... I just had a crazy idea!! Do you think folks would be interested in having their dogs names made into Japanese??

Storm Angel n Auroras Mum Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 I think the only problem you will have selling things is where you are based. Me for instance Id love one of those plushies, however wouldnt like to think how much the postage would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it's as bad as people think...especially for things as tiny and light as a plushy or a photo. It's the bulky/heavy stuff that have scary shipping charges.

Jay Jones Posted April 19, 2012 Report Share Posted April 19, 2012 I'd buy 2 for the kids if you make more one the same as yours and a Black and white one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm going to have to make some then! Everyone seems to like them! Sakutama other than the name plaques aren't you going to make more of these husky plushies You know, I think i'll have to! But i'll have to change the design a bit so it's original, and not copied from my avatar. I'll try to come up with something next week. I'm thinking cuter eyes with that classic Husky "eyeliner" and maybe a different body shape so there are 4 legs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
