Description
It's been roughly two months, since I got started on this bunch of chibi-pangolins. It's been hard work, but finally all but one are finished and they are all sporting new colors. The only exception is the chibi at the bottom right corner. It was made 2 years ago and shows the original color!It's been a long journey filled with massive amounts of scale clipping, jotting down of notes and what not, in order to collect some useful information - like how many pure working hours I spend on making a chibi pangolin, the sizes and number of scales needed, how much material they use etc.. Despite my best effort of trying to find a method, that would help streamline the workflow for future chibis and predict the number of scales and how to arrange them, it just didn't work out. In the end I got piles of left over scales of sizes I thought I would be using and five chibis with highly individual scale arrangements and total numbers. Oh well, at least I tried. xD
~~~ Chibi pangolins can be commissioned in my charity Shop @ demiscorner.bigcartel.com/ ~~~
The price for a chibi plush is 170 USD + shipping. A portion of the price (70 USD) is always donated to help protect pangolins in the wild.
Materials: Faux suede, polyester filling, glass eyes and water-based glue.

I'm really happy with the way the colors turned out. It was good that I got out yesterday for the photos. It's been raining all day today.

Haha! Sandshrew is actually modelled after the pangolin, so that fits well. Whenever I catch one, I tend to name it Willy. ;3

These are too cute! Β I love that they all have different colors schemes, but all in "natural" colors. Β Great work, I can really see the time and love that went into them. Β It's also great that you donate part of the sales profit to help the animals in the wild. Β Awesome~ Β

Thank you for your lovely comment. I think, that with exception for the white pangolin all the colors are more or less represented in the wild, depending on sub-species. :3
