FLUFFWINIA HAS EVOLVED

See new thread here!

other pic!

Hey all.

While we are waiting for the delights of modtacular glee Icepick plans to bring to us some day in the future, I've been working on, well, how shall I put this;

A secret project...

A secret fluffy project...

I have created the very first...

fluffwinians o_o

I did intend to have more complete by now but, for those whom don't know, I was HORRIBLY INJURED by a pavement about a day and a half ago so my left wrist is a bit jippy.

They are small and hand held (please don't comment on my pinky nail, I know it looks weird, and yes, it WAS agony holding up even that adorable fluffy DG with my poor left hand) and have a squeaker inside which, so far, no one has been able to resist...

Anyway, the ones on the sides are prototypes, and the one in the middle is the design I'm happy with. I intend, when my hand gets back in action, to create a fair few more. Some might even be for sale... and hopefully, one day I'll progress on to making a few more different Darwinia creatures, officers would be quite easy, naturally, but I'd have a go at spiders, spore generators, centipedes and maybe a triffid pot plant, a few ants, an engineer maybe, Armour would be a bit dull but possible, a fluffy Dr Sepulveda is quite unlikely, but I might be able to make a godhead which you could place on either end of your mantle piece. Suggestions are welcome, as are statements of interest in owning a fluffwinian.

Clearly, Sepulveda is in dire need of a muppet replica.

Those are seriously awesome. :) I would spend actual (meaning non-forged) money on one of those.

Hey all

I'm starting to make a few up to sell today, I'm thinking of charging 8 pounds + p&p (I don't know exactly how much this will be yet). I think I could happily accept paypal or a cheque (ergo you could mail me your address rather than send it to me via the interweb)

Please understand that you'll be dealing directly with me and not with Introversion.

That's basically 12 euros each, and is about $15.7, though obviously shipping to other countries costs more. I'm afriad everyone else is on the receiving end of an unfavourable exchange rate.

I have a rough estimate so far that I need to make *at least* 10, so I'm going to spend the next week or so making them up - I'll also start researching making other toys (like officers and spiders) which might become available later, if people are interested in buying them.

I'll contact people who definately want one privately first, then open it up for all. I would also potentially be open to commission, I suppose, but that will have to be decided later.

I don't know about your avatar, but there are no sigs in the Darwinia, Defcon, or IV forums. Sigs are only displayed in the Uplink forums.

Hi

Someone decided they wanted 6, so it'll be a while before any are being broadcast for sale!
