Chubby Discord Custom Plush

Well, here he is, the big fella himself. I did my own spin on Discord and decided I'd like him to be a more dumpy dragon-like shape, and less serpentine. Shall we just say that he's been less active after reforming, and had more time to sit and watch TV?

30 hours approx, including embroidery and cutting. He started off as a planned 18" toy, and grew and grew.
I worked entirely without a pattern apart from drawing up something to make sure his legs were identical. If I were ever to repeat the process, I learned a lot from doing this and could do him faster and better.

Machine embroidered: Eyes, wings
Hand sewn: Eyebrows, neck joint, inner thighs
Machine sewn: Everything else, he's a tough ol' boy!

Thanks go to my Mum who actually added his eyebrows whilst I was out hunting for fabric for another project.

Special Features:
- Arms: Special ribbed Minky fabric, and plastic large teddy bear joints so he can swing those arms up and down.
- Gator leg: individually made claws and foam supported ankle. I tried just making a single shape with white minky for both claws but it looked a bit blobby.
- Tail: Articulated with a tough, heavy, nylon ball-joint armature.
