Making A 4 Foot Long Plush of Aki the Dragon Pandeena 

Aki is an original character belonging to my client and designed by Madshy Arts. He is a dragon pandeena, which is a noodle dragon/panda/hyena mix! I developed a new floppy quadruped pattern for him, and I'm so pleased with how he came out. At 4 feet long, he's the biggest plush I've ever made!
There was no light grey minky in existence, so I had to dye it myself. He also comes with a little koi fish friend, which he can hold with magnets!
The fish pattern was made by neon-juma on DA!

Curious about the little cat plush? That's my mascot, Shifty! This tiny plush was made with a modified version of teacuplion's corgi ITH pattern:
