Description He’s done. I stayed up till 10 am working on it so I can ship today and he’s done. I am so happy and proud. He’s such an adorable little bot. I think I’ll cry watching him leave. Maybe I’ll make one for myself.
This is Pipsqueak, or ‘Pip’. Based on Wildxside’s fanbot .
I designed the Pattern myself. Used 14mm plastic owl eyes. Yarn is acrylic, stuffed with recycled pillow stuffing and embellished with felt and yarn. He took me about two weeks to make, but I know I could have knocked that down to one if I really tried. He measures 15 inches all. Bigger than expected, but that’s because of the smoke stack.
Gotta Say, if more fanbots were designed like this, I’d be building them all.

Your boot lookes nice. you did a great job.

I didn't know there are names for them. Are they from a show?

I made one for my son and a commission too awhile ago and it was based off of my son T-Shirt that we bought at Wal-mart...

LOL..

This bot is actually an original creation by a friend Wildxside. The other robots that I've made are actually from a band called Steam Powered Giraffe . They are great! I love them. You can see some of their videos on youtube.
