Description
I'd like to introduce you all to my latest creation, I've been working on this one for quite a while. He's my most complicated creation to date.He measures 10.5" from paw to ear tips and approximately 15" from from to back (not including his long tail). He has jointed back legs and wire armature in his neck/back and legs. I used all white fabrics to create him and airbrushed all the beautiful fur markings on by hand.
Clouded leopards are perhaps my most favourite of the big cats. It's such a shame that they are so endangered.
I really hope that you like Nimbus, there are lots more photos of him on my website if you'd like to see more of him.
He has found a new home to go to now.

The markings look awesome, especially the ones on the back, so very well done!

Thank you, I was nervous of doing all the markings myself. The thought of ruining something that'd taken me so many hours of work was almost too much, but I couldn't leave him white so it had to be done. Fortunately he came out OK

Oh wow, this is absolutely stunning. I'm so jealous right now, you have no idea as to how many times I have started making a plushie of any kind and after making a decent head I give up because I cannot make a body ever.

Thank you so much. I often think that the head is the hardest part in plushie designing, if you can get the head done then you're most of the way there. Keep at it and I'm sure that the resulting plush will be great.

I love the Spots on his Back (Went to your Site) They look so good,
So I guess if he needed a wash its a no no?

Thank you, I tried to make the marking s look realistic. They're not as beautiful as the real thing though.
The colours are fixed to make them permanent but I wouldn't recomend giving him a wash non-the-less.

How beautiful! I've never been able to achieve complete success airbrushing plushies, mine always get a little crusty. Yours is absolutely flawless! I think I need to take lessons from you

Thank you so much for your kind words. It's the first time I have tackled such complicated markings. It took a long while to build up the colour but it was worth it to keep the fur feeling soft.
