I've gone through with Crasher's face replacement!! I was quite nervous about doing this, but I'm glad I ultimately did because she looks so much more like herself now ^v^

Like I mentioned in one of my previous posts, I also replaced her chestplate-like piece to make it a more accurate shape (I also included 2 extra face pics since it's not that clear in the main before and after image)

If you're curious, there are progress photos under the cut:

I decided to replace the stuffing in my Fitor and Cy-Kill plushies

Their polyfill was getting kinda matted and lumpy, plus I'd understuffed them a little to begin with (mostly because the polyfill I'd used for them wasn't nearly as good as the stuff I have now) so I figured it might be time to freshen them up a little

(Fitor does not get a Before picture unfortunately because it didn't occur to me to take one until I was halfway through the process TvT)

Bonus progress pics below the cut if you're interested:

Recently got inspired to recreate @galaxyforu's take on the "me my boyfriend and his $500 4 foot tall mareep" meme

Said take on that meme features under the cut of this post (Yeah yeah, I know that post is like a year and a half old... sometimes the brain worms get a little wigglier than normal and I feel compelled to look through a bunch of old GoBots stuff -- IS THAT SO WRONG??? /silly)

Also, there be bonuses under the cut:

I've been considering changing the face on my Crasher plush (new face mock-up on the left, original face on the right)

I'll be honest... I was never 100% satisfied with the final face I made, I just kinda rolled with it bc it was the best I could do at the time ^^" This new face design is a lot closer to the vision I initially had and feels more "Crasher" than the face I ended up giving her

I think my plan (whenever I actually start this) is to make an entirely new face separately and see if I like it before I commit to actually taking her apart - It'd probably be more material efficient to just replace her eyes since that's pretty much all I'm changing, but I wanna make damn well sure I'm happy with my work before I've got a halfway taken apart Crasher sitting in my room

Scorp plush progress: I've done a bit of prototyping over the last few weeks/months, and tonight I finally got a start on doing the patterns for the final product! (as shown in the second picture, Cy-Kill is here to assist with scale management)
