From the video game Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth for Play Station.
Who’s Lenneth?: Lenneth, is a Valkyrie who serves Odin, the leader of the Gods. In the world of Asgard, a sacred war has broken out among the Gods. Odin needs brave souls from humans to form an army to fight. It's Lenneth's job to go to the mortal world of Midgard and find the brave souls of humans to send to Odin. The Armor: This just proves that plushies CAN have armor! Very soft armor. The base of the armor is thin foam covered in satin. This was pretty tricky to construct although it sounds easy. Many cardboard pieces were used as models before the final armor was constructed. The Helm: This part of the project made me go blind. It was measuring and measuring and measuring and measuring... MANY hours of measuring. Everything had to be EXACT. There was no room for any giving (like fabric) or any small mistakes. I don't know how I did this, but I am SO thankful for Godiva Belgian Blends. The feathers were an awesome touch. But, oh man they are delicate! The Hair Because for some reason four local craft stores seem to lack silver/grey yarn, I had to purchase a shimmering fluffy white yarn and brush a silver luster powder on. This was fun and messy and got all over my computer and possibly damaged my roommates’ lungs. Actually, she's fine. We just had silver dust around the room for about a month. The Body The body is made of fleece. It actually has wiring and a wooden bone structure unlike my Mini Mandy doll [link] , so it can stand and fight in action purging evil! ...and umm, so the arms can bend around. ^_^;; The Eyes The eyes are made of Quick Fuse and were made with the help of VesteNotus [link] who's an awesome friend/artist. The Boots The boots are yet another piece of armor. They were made with generally the same material. I didn't take any close up shots of the boots, but they took forever to make. So many layers! Entirely hand sewn and glued together. Made with love, pain and joy for my dear brother. |
