Description
I've been addicted to Portal ( [link] ) at the moment despite the fact it makes me motion sick! Its a first person shooter/puzzle game, highly addictive.Anyone who has played Portal will understand the love and devotion of the companion cube, and the heartbreak that comes with it also, curse GLaDOS!
I missed mine so much so, that I had to make myself a little 4x4x4" plushie. Instead of using the traditional stuffing method (as everything I have made so far, barring the incident of the little foam beads (never, ever, ever again) has been stuffed with conventional stuffing) I used foam instead, its rigid and is better at keeping its shape, so rather than being a tubby supposed-to-be cube, its actually a cube.
I have plans to make a full sized one in the near future! I've already got the basic cube body, just need to work on scaling up the pattern, and working out a few glitches with it in the meantime.
It hasn't tried to stab me yet...
Original pattern by ~Engelmancer and myself, photography by ~thingomy
This item or similar can be made as part of a trade or commission (Β£25 + P&P)
P.S. The cake is a lie!
Edit: Thanks for the daily deviation guys!
Edit No.2: pattern is now available - its in the 'free patterns' section of my website - [link] and its featured in my comic too! [link]
Enjoy, and if you make your own, drop me a link, I like seeing what people do with my patterns

foxymitts In reply to SoDorable [2010-09-23 07:40:12 +0000 UTC]
??? Dont quite understand the '20um L? in american?' But I can tell you he's 4"x4" big, he's Β£25 (which is $40 US dollars - conversion rate isn't good at the mo I'm afraid) and P&P is postage and packaging - basically a little extra to cover the cost of it getting to you!

Ha. I loved my Companion Cube soo much, I played that level over and over again, just so I could DESTROY IT. Okay, well maybe not, probably just for the achievements, but same idea amirite?
Motivates me to make one of my own...seeing as i'll be going as the PORTAL PERSON FOR HALLOWEEN.

But thereβs no sense crying over every mistake.
You just keep on trying till you run out of cake.
And the Science gets done.
And you make a neat gun.
For the people who are still alive.

Even though you broke my heart.

You really should put a weight in the middle of the next one. Or maybe something deadly. That's probably what GlaDos would do.

GNAHHH OPHHH. owo
And suddenly I am reinspired to make a plush weighted storage cube...
(I was going to make one a while ago, but I have no money so I have no yarn so I kind of gave up. It's hard to make things out of yarn without yarn. -seeks yarn-)

That...seems like it would be hard.
Like hair.
It's really hard to crochet with hair.
Or using a knitting needle instead of a crochet needle. Oh, the things I do when I'm bored...
