Illidan plush - World of Warcraft brought to (fuzzy) life

[twocheeseplease.livejournal.com]

He's finally finished!

A completely new pattern for me and, as with most new things, he has some kinks. The biggest one being he turned out quite huge! He was only supposed to be a medium sized demon, but I guess this material is very very stretchy (and I didn't even over-stuff like I usually do).

Oh but what a gorgeous material it is! Illidan is made from a coral fleece, like the dressing gowns - the plushest, softest, creamiest fleece out there.

He has his manly tattoos, and quite the over-compensating set of horns (which was also a first for me but I must admit I rather love how they turned out), and of course a lucious head of yarn hair.

As some of you know, I have a small love affair with hooves and so I was overjoyed to be given the chance to work on some 3D plush hooves! I really love how these came out and you can be sure they'll be appearing on many plushies in the future.
