wierd platypus
March 7, 2024

alright i didnt really know... what i was doing for this ishduk, let alone for what to even call it, until when i showed a friend the progress of it and thought it seemed rather platypus like. so like.
yeah i guess so.
so it stuck the way it is with being uh. "weird platypus". still dont know what this is. thats part of the fun.

also yeah i did make this on the basis of using the reject piece from when i was making the carlotta felting. just had to then build around that. i do like the inner mouth eyes. always a fun feature in how rare i see it ever being employed in character design. yeah thats about it my head hurts lets slam. inside is red osier dogwood and of osoberry seeds and twigs.

had to make the back leg raise up on toes so it wouldnt wobble around so much.
