oh it is a real skull in there..that makes it about eighty times more awesome.

Yep, it is. Ironically, the fake cast ones you can get at art supply stores cost about three times as much as buying a real one off some guy in Texas.

I am fascinated by this horrific creature, especially his glowing mouth.
I love that your gallery has such a wide variety of art in it (and most of it scares the crap out of me).

i have so much weird shit in my head that every night i look with relief on that thing and think "well at least there's one that i got out into the world and don't have to worry about anymore" because the rest are pinging phantom-like off the walls.

Amazing. One of my favorite things about it is the title; the name King Coyote sells it for me.

You, my friend, are a master of the plush world! Oh, I do love to see bones incorporated into sculpture. Soft sculpture makes it even better. And the light in the mouth is a wonderful touch.

This reminds me of what starts the random doll-painting competitions between random pop-artists in portland.

he's got a steel frame, but aside from that and the skull, just regular muslin and fiberfill. oh, and the lights. he's got some internal wiring. he can run for a week on a D battery.

That is really cool looking though my curiocity must question.
What fabric did you use and what kind of stuffing? It looks like you used a lightweight fabric and regular fiberfill. And is this hand stitched or machine stitched? looks hand stitched but with tiny stitches...
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
He's just regular old unbleached muslin and fiberfill, yeah. Hand-stitched also, since I had to sew around the frame. It took a slow eternity.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
thats what I kinda figured ^_^ Though I think you probably should have torn you're fiberfill a wee bit smaller because it looks a wee bit lumpy in the arms... but other than that it looks super kewls. And I imagine it did take a long time... hand stitching properly takes lots of time and then to have to work around the frame would take even longer.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
yeah, i had to re-stuff his arms a few times due to my being a dumbass, and the fiberfill pilled a bit. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
might not bee a bad idea... or if you want to use stuffing may I suggest trying to put a layer of quilter's batting? it should help to smooth out any lumps that fiberfill makes and since it's a sheet you can just cut it to the shape you want and stick it in first or layer it over the form.
Course I don't know how you do this so It's unlikely that my suggestion will work because I really don't know what you've done in the first place ^_^ but yea... the only reason I noticed the lumps was because I sew myself ^_^
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
it's too late for this particular one i think, but that's a really good suggestion. i'm fairly new to sewing so i appreciate all tips and tricks.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
^_^ I kinda figured that it was a bit late >.<
And I'm happy to help whenever I can... anyway... even if you're new to sewing you're really good ^_^

Looks kinda hungry 0.o

So okay, I'm trying to figure this one out:
That snout it actually a skull protruding, and there is actually a light source inside? (At first glance I thought it was that sham-glam gold material)
The whole body reminds me of a huggable, sloth-like beast, which is oddly welcoming.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, the snout is a skull. There are a few LEDs anchored in his mouth that connect to a switch in his .. uh .. underside.
He is oddly huggable. The cat sleeps between his paws. I should post a picture of that.
