Rembrandt Plush
Here’s the final Rembrandt plush doll that I posted the WIP from on Friday. He didn’t end up quite as chubby as I would have liked, but I’m really happy with the result and of course now I want to make more plush things, so many more! Plus look at his sweet pants! One thing I’m quite happy with is that besides the flesh colored felt and thermal fleece hair, every other bit of this doll was made from fabric and things I already had. Hooray for not having to buy new supplies!
One of the paintings from my “Spoke Up!” show in January just got featured on a cool blog called Mixed Plate. It’s included with a lot of other bike related arts and crafts. Go check it out now!
The Robopocalypse Comics Collective had a meeting on Friday and we did another jam comic. Read it here!
New Baby Otto things should start posting tomorrow or Wednesday.
David says he resembles Cardinal Richelieu. But he’d need a really big cape if you ask me. I love it and think it’s a great idea.
That is pretty sweet. I’m looking forward to the plush robots.

[...] I really wanted to bike around to parks and play the thing, as well as take it on a trip I will be leaving for shortly, so I made a carrying case for it. It’s made from a pair of cargo pants that had been ripped. (My bike saddle has the reputation of ripping out the crotches of many a pair of pants; other than that, it’s perfect) I had been holding onto them for just such an occasion. I took a bunch of the pockets from the pants and re-sewed them onto the case, so it has two big pockets (one on either side) and three smaller ones for picks or spare change or other doo-dads. The shoulder strap is part of an old bike tube, a favorite material of mine lately. The tube makes the perfect strap, it’s made of very pliable rubber so it just sort of stretches itself to whatever size it needs to accomodate. You can’t see it in the photo, but the interior is lined with 1/4″ thick thermal fleece, the leftovers from Rembrandt’s hair. [...]
