this is super cool!!! i worked on chapter 3 as lead character artist while these guys were being made and worked a lot on the planning/rigging front, and it's so awesome to see a physical plush that hits all the notes of the 3D model! it's also a good lesson to me how certain elements of the plush are actually way harder to do than i would've previously thought (like the head shape or the arm articulation). i love how the seams of the fabric match the UV seams of the 3D model, and how the paint on the eyes and neck piece look very 1:1!
Thank you so much! I have seen your reel and it is really inspiring to see how things work behind the scenes. Haha yes, there are certainly areas that do not work in real life as they do in the digital space like the indented mouth and it was really fun to try figure out a way to get around those. One thing I didn't mention in the video was the foot, as you can see it's not round enough because it differs from how a plush would usually work, where it should be circular base so that it can hold the roundness. Other than that, I really owe it to the UV map as it is the basis for the pattern generation and all I had to do was to hand sew them together!
Came out so cool! Btw, if you have one armature link stuck in the foot/hand pieces, you can heat up a single free piece with a heatgun or hair dryer. This will make it soft. Then put the free piece facing up on a table, grab the hand piece, line the hole up, and smash down. It will usually pop in without any issues.
Wow, it's amazing! I love the final result, it is 100% realistic! and the tool to create the patterns of the stuffed animal seems super useful and has also saved you a lot of work time.
If you're down to make them for your collection, I'd watch you making each of the characters like this! It looks so well done and the posability isn't something that I've seen often in plushies
It is awesome seeing how much your sewing skills have improved across projects!!! 🔥🔥 The tag detail is so cute and the shapes of Catnap turned out perfect 🎉
All I can say is WOW. This is an insane amount of work, and I can't believe you just recently learned how to sew! This video better get the love it deserves
Haha fingers crossed! I was lucky the 2 lessons I took in person actually went through every basic thing I needed to know to make my own plushie, so there wasn't much struggle.
For a beginner, you did amazing! I've been doing plush-making as a hobby for a few years now and this is way better than most of my newer projects. You've got a real knack for this!
I can't belive it you really made my idea! Your perfectionism did the job and it turned out amazing ❤ We can now appreciate the full glory of Cat Nap plushie Thank you!! (And I'm happy that you kind enjoy it the proces of making it)
Referring to using clay forms to make your patterns first, made me laugh a little bit as a plush/fibre artist; that in and of itself is a game changer that's only been well known throughout the greater plush/fursuit community for a few years (5 years minimum I'd say; which seems like a lot, but nkt in the grand scheme of things). When I was first starting, the going method was to literally sketch a pattern based off of your 2D drawings you had, plus extreme trial and error. It's amazing how much has changed, and become so much more accessible for everyone, not just beginners. Loved this!!
Also! I totally feel that pain of minky slipping around while sewing; stretchy and fluffy fabrics are so incredibly slippery, they're a nightmare to work with until you get used to them. The trick I've found is to pin like crazy, more pins than you could imagine. You want that piece you're sewing to be RIGID there's so many pins. I've also found that sewing on one side over the other is very helpful, but that takes trial and error with figuring out your machine. A lot of people also swear by clips instead of pins when working with slippery fabrics, but I have yet to use any myself. If nothing else works, then a simple trick is to note which side tends to drift off of your guide lines (the top or bottom piece), and preemptively pin them so that your guidelines are misaligned; that way when you sew, both proper parts are getting sewn together. That can also take some trial and error though. Lots of practice on scraps will be your friend! Wonderful work as always ❤
Haha yeah I wouldn't have even touched on plush making if these tools weren't available to us. Sketching the pattern sounds like an absolute nightmare!! Ah yes clips, I should really try that one out. I find myself still using the manual knob on the side to sew things slowly and my forearm hurts like hell after that lol, that's why I swapped to hand sewing in the end. Do you think it's still worth it to machine sew when there's so many pins in the way or will it be faster with hand sewing? I would love to do whatever's faster.
@@zedabyu It can be kind of fun if you have some idea of what you’re doing, but yeah if you’re starting completely from scratch with 0 knowledge, it gets a little rough! Plus it’s a big resource pit, which isn’t great when you’ve not got much money, If you do ever get clips and try them out, I’d love to know what you think of them. As for your question; in my opinion at least, it absolutely is worth it. It takes some practice to get right (minky and faux fur are incredibly finicky fabrics to sew!) I would highly recommend practicing on fabric scraps, it’ll not only give you a better feel for working with the fabric, it’ll build your confidence on the machine. Pinning the crap out of fabric is a tip I learned years ago from MLP plush artists, for tackling the hooves; which are just one big circle. It gives the fabric less chance to move and slip, by holding it more firmly in place. And by having the pins pointing outward off of the fabric, it makes it easy to pull them out as you go. You will want to take your time, which is where practice will help you, bc you’ll not want to use the knob for that (which you’ve already figured out, isn’t fun). Another tip for sewing I’ve seen is to stick your pieces together with a basting stitch, then tackling it with pins. Once sewn, it’s easy to remove. What I personally like to do is stick a pin in to corners/end pieces, and work inwards pinning straight through across then line; I use these just as marker placement to make it easier for me to actually pin, which I also do going from both ends inward, adjusting the fabric and “marker pins” as needed. I realize it sounds kind of complicated, but it works for me. I’d recommend testing different methods, mix and match what you like best, what works for you. If in the end you still find that you’re not comfortable on the machine, it’s totally fine to do full hand sewing!
That's amazing! I am glad you did your research after watching my video and managed to work things out. Too many people asking for shortcuts and waiting to be spoon fed nowadays. You will go far in life
This is absolutely incredible. This should be the actual plushie for the game! It’s beautiful. I also loved how you showed every step of the process. It was really cool to see it all come together! Thank goodness for tech to help out with projects like these 😅
I love love love that you respected the indentation of his mouth it really makes it so much more accurate. Also thanks you for always mentioning the creators you take inspiration from, not a lot of people do it these days so thanks you!
i respect every creators who take the time to create content to give back the community and share their knowledge. that is the way we should learn and grow together
Im glad you're working on your machine sewing but your hand sewing! Mwah!! 👏👏👏 i make plushies as a hobby and it took me forever to perfect my hand sewing, but i still use a machine more than anything
I am still nervous about using a machine to sew lol. In the end I still use the knob on the side to manually sew instead of the paddle, so I think it kinda defeats the purpose haha. It's just so hard to get them lined up right!
Watching this video now inspires me to want to make my own CatNap plush! Do you by chance have the files to the patterns and CatNap model you used and material/supplies links you also used for CatNap?? Even the sizing measurements for CatNap to 3D print it the same size you did!^^
Thank you! It's a double-edged sword for sure lol I already found errors that I had to force myself to ignore otherwise I'll have to remake the entire thing from scratch
This is one of the best things I've ever seen! I would totally buy Smiling Critters plushies that are one to one from the game like this one is. (I'd imagine that they'd be prertty dang expensive though)

Adding the Playtime Co. tag was such a good detail most people wouldn’t add, this is the best plushie I’ve ever seen someone make🙌🏻

HOW CAN I GET THIS
i could possibly make a sweet sheep plushie 🤔
Hey Mr married to poppy playtime 2
@@zedabyu you should do it
@@zedabyu plz do a sweet sheep
@@zedabyu I’ve never seen an actual sweet sheep plushy considered he’s a rejected toy from Poppy playtime so please do it. I’m begging you.

i think that's how my resin print broke in the first place haha. i think it works okay without any printed limbs since they don't need feet to stand.
Wow, it's amazing! I love the final result, it is 100% realistic! and the tool to create the patterns of the stuffed animal seems super useful and has also saved you a lot of work time.
yes, plushify is amazing!
Are you gonna make the rest of the smiling critters?. It would be really sick!
I would love to! If the views are acceptable, I'll keep making them until we complete the collection.
Yeeeessss!!!
Do dog day next
Can you make copy’s of the catnap plush and sell them?
@@zedabyuthat would be so awesome. The catnap looks really good so imagine what the others would look like. PERFECTION

The collector in me is screaming at me to do more lol.
The best looking Critter plush ever.
Phenomenal. This os what Mob Entertainment should be selling!!!

So amazing. Just like in the game. I wish they would sell these on the market.

thanks!!
Ikr this is wayyyy more accurate than the officials. 😃
True
You're so talented
it was incredible!

this is genuinely so adorable. how you got the indentations to work was super cool too!! i love his little crescent charm 😭
Glad you liked it!!

How come the cat nap plush that you made is more realistic than the official one made by mob used for the game. And by that I mean the one in the VHS
because boira plushies had to make their head from scratch with clay and didn't use the official models

How can I get this too 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍😃👍

Ok this is officially the BEST CatNap plush ever made it’s SOO game accurate OMG I NEED ONEE 🥺
Hi lightnings I am your fan
hehe im glad u approve
Im glad you're working on your machine sewing but your hand sewing! Mwah!! 👏👏👏 i make plushies as a hobby and it took me forever to perfect my hand sewing, but i still use a machine more than anything
I am still nervous about using a machine to sew lol. In the end I still use the knob on the side to manually sew instead of the paddle, so I think it kinda defeats the purpose haha. It's just so hard to get them lined up right!
How you achieve the arms flopping to the sides is make the arms a separate piece, so the end off and then sew it back on the body
And another thing, where did you find the model? I really need it. And if you could put the link that would be great.
Watching this video now inspires me to want to make my own CatNap plush! Do you by chance have the files to the patterns and CatNap model you used and material/supplies links you also used for CatNap?? Even the sizing measurements for CatNap to 3D print it the same size you did!^^
It was wonderful! Identical to the game. Seriously, man, I would love it if you did the other Smiling Critters, especially the one from DogDay. ❤
Whooooooooooa that looks really coool 🦧🐸
