when I opened up your channel I was genuinely surprised that you didn't have several million subscribers! your art is beautiful, your content is amazing and I am completely sure that you’ll achieve great success on this platform in no time, so I'm already claiming my "here before the first million" card :)
Another fabulous piece of art! It's sad to see that you don't get the views that your work deserve. Maybe you can consider adding some captions to describe what and why you are doing certain things in the videos. I am sure many of us would love to learn more about those for each and every step, because they do look really interesting, but it's really hard to understand without any words or voiceover. You have already done the hard work of creating this beautiful creature from scratch, why not put in a little bit more effort to make the video a masterpiece of its own? Some questions that popped into my mind when I was watching the entire video from start to finish are as listed below (I understand some have been answered in your video description but not everyone will click and read): 0:03 What fur do you use and why? Which ones are your favorite and which should we avoid? 0:08 How do you prepare your 3d models for printing? What is your thought process when you are hollowing, separating, and marking the model? 0:20 Ever thought about trying a new method for eyes? Maybe 3D printed with indented markings that you can paint and then fill with UV resin afterwards? 1:24 Why do you use hot glue and not other kinds of glue to secure the armature? How do you thin down the hot glue to smooth it out nicely? 1:27 What sizes plastic armature do you use and why? Do you prefer a certain size? How do you make the measure the right size hole for the 3d print? 1:35 Are the metal wires necessary? What is the thought process when trying to secure the wires to a print? 1:55 How do you do the tape method for the pattern? What are your thought process? Any failures you encountered that you can share? What markings are important to mark out? How do you ensure you don't get confused after removing the tape? 2:32 Any tips on marking out the pattern on the fur? What marker do you use? How do you sew the different parts together? 2:49 Why do you paint the prints before gluing the fur? 3:38 What glue do you use to glue the fabric? How do you ensure it's centered? Seems like you are gluing a little by little, why? 4:24 What vacuum and scissors are you using? Do you prefer to buy longer fur to cut or can you not find shorter furs? What is your thought process when cutting? How to make sure you cut evenly? 5:14 Seems like you are using smaller plastic armature for the antenna, how come? Must they be connected to the entire body or can you not just glue it from the top of the head? 7:14 How do you estimate how long the limbs and body are? 7:28 Why do you wrap the armature with polyester batting? and how do you know how much to use if you already prepared the pattern online? 8:07 What are you doing here? Looks really interesting! 8:33 Do you prefer clips or pins? 8:40 Why do you sew some with machine and some with hand? 8:48 What shaver are you using? Why do you shave first this time and trim it short like for the head? 9:00 What are your thought processes when coming with the idea for the wings? 9:17 Difficulties when wearing the fabric on the prints Sorry for this long message, but I truly believe that adding more information in your videos will make them more interesting and result in longer viewer retentions. I would love to learn more from your processes, and in fact, I think I know how I want to make the articulated bunny ears with a center indentation thanks to your Dragonite's wings, so thank you for inspiring me. All the best!
Thank you so much for the detailed comment! I really appreciate it and it gives me a lot to think of. I do think adding more info or a narrative will help people sit through longer form. I'm fairly new to the world of video, I need to sit down and study many craft TH-camrs to get a better sense of what works. Right now these videos are extended versions of my Verticals that do very well on Instagram/Tiktok before I compress them down further to 1 minute, it's a process I do for those anyway so it's easier for me to put these out. But short form and long form are really different. While I think these videos are still valuable/entertaining I need to reassess things if I want them to do very good. It might take me a bit to get to that point of feeling comfortable experimenting a bit more but you are 100% correct.
I wonder which other Pokemon that you're planning to bring to life next ... Vulpix, Galarain Rapidash, Beautifly, Pachirisu, Pidgeot, Lucario, Serperior or one of the legendary Pokemon for your challenge. With so many sculpture/plush Pokemon have been made you could make money💸 selling them since you're very talent.
Draagonite is my second favorite pokemon (Absol being my number 1 favorite due to its pokedex lore), and after this (along with your previous ones) I'm excited to see which one you do next.

Thank you! Buizel will be next :D
Beautiful work, I love it!!! 😊😊😊
Omg!!! So cute!!!! 🥰
Awwww I love him! He's so chonky :D
I love it
The work you do is awesome!
My favorite Pokémon is Riolu,
could you possibly make one and make a video about it?
Absolutely amazing id like you see you make charizard
Can you make nickit? I would love to see it!
I need this in my life. Not now, just… eventually.
This is so cool bc I have been you subscriber for 4 months now❤
Uno de los mejores!!! 🎉🎉
Bro, sorry but do you think you can make a Pikachu next, it's my favorite Pokémon?
I would love a lucario so much
😊
Lucario is coming soon!
Really ?! THANKS !! 🤩
Cute❤❤❤
so friendly and chubby!!
You know, i’m not sure, is dragonite fuzzy or scaly?
I'd say Dragonite is scaly since it's a dragon evolved from snakes. The real iffy dragon types would be Altaria and Drampa for scaly vs fluffyness.
Es muy muy bonito!!! Quién sabe cual será el siguiente esponjoso pokémon de ojos brillantes ❤
make raichu next
sandshrew needs to be next on the list
Make the smiling critters please
You're so underrated!! I've recommended you to a few of my friends to boost your subscriber count >:D
Thank you!! I appreciate it 😄
Please make Milotic and Absol too 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Milotic will be soon! I have the pieces already
What I'm wondering is. How do you get the 3D printed model of these Pokémon skulls and the joints for the arms and legs and neck?
I have my own 3d printer, I buy the joints, they are called plastic armature.
Do Jangmo-o next please
What I would like is to purchase the stl files you use to 3d print all your parts. I would love to make my own pokedolls!
They are based off the official models so I cannot share the files, but I may sell pre printed parts in the future
Está exelente
Gracias 🙂
Cute :3😺
Umbratundra pls make a Pikachu or shiny eevee
OMG 🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰 he is so cute I love him 🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡🧡
OMG
Dragonite my boy😭
So it's a doll not exactly a plush ok it's still absolutely amazing because you really need to be passionate well done
Make Lopunny And Lucario And Porygon Z OK😉
Also Pachirisu And Spiritomb Please
Take my credit card already
Hola
so chunky!
The level of your sewing and suturing would make some surgeons look like novices.
On the flip side, if Umbra wanted to be a surgeon these vids would be like a resume.
