FULL VIEW FOR DETAIL, PLEASE? <3

Axel was a little bit...too...persistant...when it came to trying to get Vexen into the Christmas spirit. After running around him and poking him for a while, Vexen finally got fed up and decided to not only give a shocking display of spirit, but also make a rather lovely snowman.

Axel really didn't mind - he was VERY warm-blooded and could keep his hands nice and warm - but it wasn't as fun when Xigbar kicked him over.

XD I loved making this. This was done for a plushie exchange Secret Santa-type deal on a plush board I frequent, for . I had a list of characters to pick from, but once I thought up Axel the Snowman, he INSISTED on me making him. XD <3

His head is attached by Velcro, so that it can be removed - just like a real snowman. His hands are sewn in a fiery-looking fabric to suggest that he's keeping himself toasty warm in there.

Those carrots were a labor of love, I'm telling you. XD They took a long while to do!

The scarf was knitted by ace knitter , and is also removable. <333

Overall, I LOVE the end result.

(Sorry about the sloppy collage, I'm not known for my graphic design skills. XD''''''')

Materials

Fleece (orange and white), Velcro, chain, polyester/cotton blend black, cotton towel-stuff (name evading me at the moment XD), acrylic yarns for the scarf, and an iron-on transfer for the face. <3

Axel is (c) Square-Enix. This is a FANMADE FANART plush.
Pattern is mine, as is the facial art. <3

^^ Thanks much. <333 I was pleased with the way it came out, too. <333 His eye color was tricky to get just right, though - that bright green....

I thought I had posted about him before but I guess not. XD He's insanley cute! I adore the carrot hair and his detachable head. lol Everytime I look at this pic it makes me laugh. Heheheh You did such a wonderful job with the shape and proportions. ^^ Especially on the hair. I bet that was extremley hard to do! Kudos to you.~ Great job.~

<333 Thanks for the kind words!

The carrots were tricky, but not so much hard as they were time-consuming. XD'''' This was my first plush for someone else, though, so I wanted to do a nice job on it. ^^

You... did... marvelously. I absolutely adore him, and feel like making a lifesize one in my yard now. XD

I do not have the patience to make plushies, and I admire those who do.
