Scribblenauts Plush

It’s been a while now since I’ve done any video game related crafting, so I thought I should change that! Next week Scribblenauts comes out for the Nintendo DS and it looks AMAZING! You write pretty much anything and it appears in the game! Then you use those things that appear to help the main character Maxwell solve puzzles and stuff. It looks so much fun! I’ve been following news on this game for a while. When I saw that Super Punch was having a little Scribblenauts themed contest, it gave me the idea to try to make a plush Maxwell along the lines of the Coraline doll I made with my pal Mike last March. So here it is!

Scribblenauts Plush

He stands at 14 inches tall from soles of his sculpey shoes to the tip of his red rooster hat.

I also made a tiny spiral bound notebook and pencil for him to carry around!

His gloves are made of plastic vinyl, his clothes cotton, his body is canvas and linen, his rooster hat is fleece and the star is foam.

I was really happy with how his headphones turned out. I made them with the bottoms of 25 cent machine capsules!

Made out of almost entirely salvaged materials, 20 pages in each book, and the covers are made from dental record sheets!

Took a break from doing some work yesterday to make this little thing. I was thinking about how four or five years ago I was really into collage and it seemed like that was primarily where my illustrations were headed. Interesting how things can change over time!
