Any way you could post a simplified pattern for this guy? I've looked everywhere, & I can't find a sewing pattern for Golbat, just crochet patterns... I'm doing a Team Rocket Grunt costume for MegaCon, & I wanted to "evolve" my Zubat plushie from last year, since it was such a hit.

I actually free-handed the pattern right onto the fabric instead of paper, but his body is basically the same as a sphere pattern (which can be found anywhere!) except elongated (lengthwise not width-wise). The ears are triangular shaped and the wings/feet are straight forward since you would just need to draw out the actual shape. If you have any other questions, let me know. I hope I can see this happen at Megacon!!

Oh wow, thank you. Most artists are stingy & secretive with their patterns, so I didn't figure you'd share yours — I'm pleasantly surprised! Question: do you think I could do a Golbat out of Foamies instead of cloth? I'm trying to make it as lightweight as possible, so it'll "fly" behind me on a shoulder harness rig like my Zubat. Was thinking I'd stuff it with minimal batting, or packing peanuts. So, do you think this is viable, & if so, where would I want all the seams? I imagine I'll have to hot-glue the foam instead of sewing it.

Argh, he's perfect!! I love the shot of him being all shy with his wings <3
But seriously, awesome job on the pattern! I'm sure your commissioner is thrilled. I really like how the embroidered eyes seem to indent a bit.
lol, I know exactly what you mean about the PPL screech xD I always used to play as Team Rocket.
Also, super surprised I'm not watching you already! (this showed up in my Group messages) I love your plushies!

Thank you, I am going to try and find the time to sew, save up for a sewing machine and the materials and get working.
