While browsing DA (I love that button) I decided to look through plushies (I can't remember what made me think of doing so...) and saw a couple that were pretty nifty. (Though I have to say that many were a bit too... cutsie for my taste) So... I decided to try my hand at a completely new (to me) art form.

I first decided to sit down and draw out an idea when I suddenly remembered that I already had a great idea already sketched out. Some time ago, when I first started to try drawing some kind of cartoon caracter (I like to doodle) I created something resembling a hamster... or a gerbil, only to let it sit and never work on him again, or so I though.... (I might post the drawing in scraps sometime soon)

For my first plushie, I decided to start small, thinking it both cooler and easier. Unfortunately, but not too much, I quickly found that only the former was true; my drawing's nose and mouth were much too small to add to such a small plushie.

Once finished, I asked my youngest brother (3) what the plushie's name was. He said "Tix". I liked it, so it stayed.

It may be me, but Tix looks to be a ninja. (completely unplanned)

And for the record... I have no prior knowledge of sewing or fabric patters or anything of that sort.
