Stitches and button eyes

[secondlina]

I am forceful in my attribution of love.

Yeah. I didn't actually try to make a Toothless plushy yet. For those of you who don't know, Toothless is the main dragon in "How to Train your Dragon". He's designed by Chris Sanders, creator of Lilo and Stitch, so he's made of pure cute.

I found a really good tutorial on Deviant art. So i'm willing to try. I'm pretty sure my toothless isn't going to be a Franken-Toothless (i'm not a talented seamstress, but I don't think i,m bad to a point of offending creation). Though I like the comic so much I might actually try to make a Franken-Toothless after I get the "real" one right.



I kinda wish I was a multi-talented person. Yeah, I know you can gain skills through practice, but the fact that I draw all the time kinda seems to have pushed the development of my other skills out the window. I also seem to have trouble imagining things in 3D.  Drawing has rendered my creativity to a flat medium? Perhaps. I guess when you get really good at something and love it, you kinda overlook other types of artistic expression. You should not, but it kinda happens anyways. If only we got days off from work dedicated to trying or learning new things. That would be fun!

At least I know how Lilo felt when she made "Scrump".

Also, this XKCD comic fitted this post too much not to insert it in. Enjoy!

Franken-toothless! XD Too dang cute! :P He needs his own comic LOL! And that link is the bomb digity! I am all thumbs when it comes to stuff like sewing, but I'd like to learn. As for different creative outlets, I agree with you, practice meets perfection, and the more you do anything the better you can become. I love anything creative and am willing to try most things, but like you have certain focus and limited time :/ I divide most of my time between art and writing more writing these days since my mind has ample time to wander at work and I'm driving making art no chance of competing :/ I do like writing though, so no complaining there ;)

Yeah, the focus is a problem too. I don't have a lot of focus for things that aren't drawing. I,m not sure why. I've always had a short attention spawn.
