Ancient-style Anthro Slugcats Part 10, Survivor!

love your huzzlemug plush- do you have a pattern? or did you wing it?

50/50!

Patternswise, this is all I got:

Used this guy to estimate how big Huzzle would turn out (this was cut out from an A4 paper sheet) and to cut out the fabric for the head + body underneath with ease. Looking back, I should have made the body a bit different to fit the bell-shape it has in the game. I had to scrunch-up the overlaying "poncho" and sew on the legs higher up on the sides to save it and give it a better shape in the end :-(

And here's the plan!

I think the most important thing is how the head was made and it's pretty clear on the drawing - I used two leaf-shaped long fabric strips to give it volume. These were placed in the mouth (with pink felt) and at the back of the head (with the same yellow minky).

When making the "poncho" I first made a paper mock-up (that I lost after cleaning my desk) and still struggled with making it even (The Struggle Mug, one might say).

Legs were made from two rectangles sewn to a tube shape. Hands were made from 2 pieces of fabric each though (rectangle + a circle-esque part at the end to resemble a palm od a hand) and the fingers are basically flat felt triangles bwahaha

Also, it doesn't have feet. The shoes are empty on the inside and were hot gued directly on the legs' end. Hot glued because I chose a thicker type of felt to give them a sturdy feel. They were also a bit tougher to sew on, but I think it would be doable if one had the time. Each shoe was made just from 2x the side's shape + a rectangle and a triangle for the soles to give them more volume.

The little hair-adjacent thing on the back of it's head were also two pieces of fabric in the shape of the little curl, sewn together flat without any filling inside.

Stripes on the legs, nose, blush and eyes (cut out from a thicker piece of felt and glues on, too) were painted on with posca pens + acrylics. Those were smaller details I wanted to have more control over that I couldn't really get with the limited fabrics I had at the moment!

So to answer the question; I can't provide patterns because they don't really exist, it was more of an improv but I hope a run through the process might help or answer the question.

Also this is how the WIP of the diva looked like, a bald chicken.

UPDATE

Maxed out karma, teleported without the karma flower to some rot hell dimension and the Echo teleported me out - got to Outer Rim (?? I think) and THE THRONE somehow and I feel like I'm progressing by opening rifts in rooms filled with Karma flowers. Managed to do 3 of those and no more appeared?? So I'm kinda stuck again but I guess

Running in circles, still in pain but I can't be dragged away from the screen until I finish this scug

RAIN WORLD THE WATCHER SPOILERS + OPINION/FIRST IMPRESSIONS/RANT AHEAD

I am so disappointed its unreal

I LOVED the beginning and the build-up with the world slowly rotting away??? Seeing locations blocked off, fruit and creatures getting rotten with time , the echo being playful was so, so great and I had the time of my life...

Until the dimension hopping happened.

My god, I am so utterly confused, lost, left with no hints what-so-ever. The new locations are a visual feast (BIG respect to everyone who stood behind the enviromental design and the art itself, its all so gorgeous) but they feel so empty, lifeless and maze-like in a really bad way. Rain World was all about getting lost and feeling small, but those areas don't make me curious to explore them, there's nothing to explore except finding another rift and they just feel overwhelming.

They just don't feel rainworldy at all to me gameplaywise. And don't get me wrong, I'm super fine with making changes to formulas, heck, Downpour DLC is my favourite part of this game because it has so many unique mechanics to offer which were so different from the base game. I personaly don't feel like the world is alive, the new creatures look amazing but I do not see them interact with me or each other in the same way as they did in the past. They feel more like standalone obstacles which was rarely the case before. Most of the rooms are so empty, loop endlessly, I get no hints of where to go or what to look for and stumble upon things either because of blind luck or because my friend (who I was playing with at the same time) went a different path and by pure chance it was the correct one. If I haven't had that outside info, I would be stuck going in circles in a dimension four worlds away from the random one with the correct tower where the echo was waiting for me. I don't know if I'm missing something

I love the new camouflage skill but it was useful only in the beginning, I rarely used it in the dimension hopping part, only in really dire situations which happened rarely. My biggest enemy was parkouring to places only to find out they were dead ends

I'm on level two of the new karma, around 6 hours in and slugchat, help my doomed soul I am not having fun. I'd love to see something that would go further with the idea of the world rotting away but I feel so, so disconnected from whats going on

Super curious about how it could end and what the echo's deal even is, I'm just lowkey scared that it will be as disappointing as the section of the game I'm dealing with right now.

oh princessa what did they do to you /j

A silly little philosophical debate of slugcats with weird relationships to the cycle.

Guilty pleasure of a comic made up of like 90% my headcanons/fanficy visions. For fun!

EPIC SECRET EPILOGUE HERE!?!?!?!:

Enot's still in character dw

Tried my hand at making a GGG God OC. Introducing Harning, God of Caution

As a mortal they had a tendency to second-guess the things around them, especially in terms of safety, and often took action to get rid of the possible risks. The Grove became much safer thanks to them, shaky infrastructure was fixed, fences were put up around dangerous areas, etc. That's what led to them being elected as the new god. However, after ascending they felt like they were under an obligation to detect any & all possible risks before they resulted in something bad, and the pressure stressed them out so much that their usual caution and tendency to notice threats early turned into overthinking and paranoia. They became so afraid of everything and didn't know what to tackle first that the aspect of taking action against these dangers got pushed into the background.

In a hypothetical chapter with them, Godpoke would have to deal with a lot of obstacles put up for "safety" and would have to find a way to remind them that they can't prevent every disaster, but must do their best and just stressing out about every possibility under the sun isn't as helpful as actually helping with even one thing.

Figuring out the AU's timeline made me realize potential interactions I wouldn't even think of before + finally got to draw anthro Spearmaster with more casual clothes!!!

If you're interested in the AU check out this post here

Hello it is I, the Popcorn enjoyer anon, no longer anon because like.. I'm not really hiding anything and I have no reason to be anxious on tumblr of all places. I've got a question about the wholeness of Dancing. Since she doesn't splinter off into multiple timelines and is a Whole Being, what happens if she dies from something? Would she still get the information from the future she technically hadn't lived through yet?

Hello there #1 Popcorn fan!!! No need to hide we all chill here

[Small spoiler warning to the Watcher DLC? AU sillytalk based on in-game mechanics, NOT canon lore]

What I was thinking is that instead of all of Dancing's memories traveling through time, time literally fully rewinds in the case of her dying. For normal creatures, dying would go like this, for reference:

Both of those realities and timelines exist, it depends who's perspective we're watching them through right now. That's why Ringing's children are dead - we are watching the one branch where that was the case from her perspective.

I imagined Dancing to be kind of a "representant" or "ambassador of the world" itself, she's somewhat of a higher point of reference, a guardian of said spacetime (which she'd become during the equivalent of her in-game plotline in RoF) working alongside it. Spacetime which she doesn't really want to meddle with if it's not needed and there isn't anything endangering the Cycle (put a pin in that :-) ).

Time would also probably rewind to the last time she slept, for the sake of consistency with the hibernation respawn mechanic and the whole "sleep is like a demo version of death" type of deal.

So any realities that managed to branch off during that period of time (a short one as well, a Slugcat can't go long without some rest once in a while) would also be erased and turned back to the time of Dancing's last nap she took somewhere in time, somewhere in space, but with no memories being sent back in time, rather seamlessly. Events in all those realities would also go how they did the first time, unless Dancing was one involved with them and chose to do something differently this time. But that's something she doesn't really want to do (get it? She's the Watcher. The one who watches [absolute cinema]).

Reminder that this AU has a discord server for anyone interested in similar rambles, added here so it doesn't get lost under the cut ->(CLICK)

[FIRST DLC ENDING SPOILERS BELOW - Bonus doodle and additional Dancing lore]

Bonus doodle for that train of thought, because after all her fun adventures with the mischevious Echo child, she found a place to call home in Ancient Urban, where there's not much to worry about in the department of "things that could kill me". Honestly after years of wandering dozens of dimensions - she deserves that break.

They were called "slaymaster" and a "diva" in one cool server once so I had to do it

💫To Be A Man💫

Thrilled I get to post my part of @ghostsharkpress ‘s transology zine before pride month ends. Our prompt was to recontextualize a formative childhood cartoon through the lense of transness/gncness.

These are thoughts I’ve had spilling around in my head for a while and seeing how important Treasure Planet was for me as a kid I thought it would be perfect. I always struggled with the fact I don’t really have any older male guide or figure to learn myself from so as a kid I tried to mimic the masculinity of shows or my peers. Growing older and wanting to step out of boyhood has really been a journey of self discovery and self worth and I’m really proud of the person I’m becoming.
