midwest plushform show 2008


Hi All,
I dont know if many of you have heard about the first Annual Mid West Plushform show at Shoparooni in Cleverland. Well thanks to top uk customizer James Yeah? we along with several other UK artist's were invited to contribute. Its a great honour to be asked along with UK peeps such as Okkle, Lex and Sneaky Raccoon!!
Unfortunetly Jon didnt manage to get his finished in time due to other projects. And mine only just got there in time, I tell you it was a tense day on the saturday I sent it!! haha.
The Plushform I did is based on the Monkey Loves Oranges Gocco print I made a little while ago. I added arms and a tail to make the little cheeky monkey shape. After a little bit of a tricky start (its such a different type of material to vinyl or resin to paint) I really got into it and enjoyed painting the little fella! You can see bigger images of him by clicking the image at the top of this post.
Thankfully he got there safe and sound and is sitting in-between (what looks like a 100 or so) all the other amazing entries! phew. Check out the auction page to see them all. Its amazing to see how different people see ideas for the same shape.
Anyhoo, Check out the Plushies and if your into any of them, bid. The whole show is for a great cause. :) toys for tots
Catch you all later.
Porl''
