I honestly expected like. 4 votes on the RoF discord server poll. not almost 30
I currently archived all drawings, made short character descriptions, have a worldbuilding masterdoc in progress and most importantly:
I have emojis to offer. 10 for now, more to come.
CAN YOU DRAW CAPOCHIN!!! For GGG requests...If not, Click Clack or King. Thank yew

Would you draw...... Cobigail perchance?
looove a silly girl, corn girl corn girl corn girl
love your huzzlemug plush- do you have a pattern? or did you wing it?
50/50!
Patternswise, this is all I got:
Used this guy to estimate how big Huzzle would turn out (this was cut out from an A4 paper sheet) and to cut out the fabric for the head + body underneath with ease. Looking back, I should have made the body a bit different to fit the bell-shape it has in the game. I had to scrunch-up the overlaying "poncho" and sew on the legs higher up on the sides to save it and give it a better shape in the end :-(
And here's the plan!
I think the most important thing is how the head was made and it's pretty clear on the drawing - I used two leaf-shaped long fabric strips to give it volume. These were placed in the mouth (with pink felt) and at the back of the head (with the same yellow minky).
When making the "poncho" I first made a paper mock-up (that I lost after cleaning my desk) and still struggled with making it even (The Struggle Mug, one might say).
Legs were made from two rectangles sewn to a tube shape. Hands were made from 2 pieces of fabric each though (rectangle + a circle-esque part at the end to resemble a palm od a hand) and the fingers are basically flat felt triangles bwahaha
Also, it doesn't have feet. The shoes are empty on the inside and were hot gued directly on the legs' end. Hot glued because I chose a thicker type of felt to give them a sturdy feel. They were also a bit tougher to sew on, but I think it would be doable if one had the time. Each shoe was made just from 2x the side's shape + a rectangle and a triangle for the soles to give them more volume.
The little hair-adjacent thing on the back of it's head were also two pieces of fabric in the shape of the little curl, sewn together flat without any filling inside.
Stripes on the legs, nose, blush and eyes (cut out from a thicker piece of felt and glues on, too) were painted on with posca pens + acrylics. Those were smaller details I wanted to have more control over that I couldn't really get with the limited fabrics I had at the moment!
So to answer the question; I can't provide patterns because they don't really exist, it was more of an improv but I hope a run through the process might help or answer the question.
Also this is how the WIP of the diva looked like, a bald chicken.
howdy, got some questions about the designs themselves [maybe also as a break from the tangle of existential cycles among cycles inside cycles]. Why does Upturned have four arms? Is it related to him being an anomaly? Also who do you think takes the longest to get dressed? And on the same subject, does Fallen's tongue ever dry out from dangling out of her mask from day to day stuff for so long?
Thank you, that is a needed break (*sounds of bleeding out onto the pages of the masterdoc* /j)
Honestly when designing Upturned I didn't even have an AU in mind. The figure on the left of the violence karma mural appeared to have a decorative, second pair of arms, so I thought hey, who else deserves weird four arms out of nowhere if not her. I'll probably leave it as it because it just signals that something about this guy is not exactly how a standard Slugcat should be. From the story standpoint (and to not get in too deep into the timey wimey branches-timelines-cycles) I see Upturned as somewhat of an antithesis of Dancing.
Dancing is a careful watcher working outside the cycle and all the madness of different, convoluted paths, while having the potential to have most impact on them, while Upturned would be an oxymoron of someone who's "whole when shattered", always inside the system and under its rule, but with the aspiration to experience and adore it all as is (funnily enough being on two ends of the RoF anomaly spectrum leads them to getting along better rather than somehow making them antagonistic), NOT being in constant torment, but being rather fine with ascension or reincarnation, by choice, not really being on the table for him. In the context of that role - the four arms are a visual representation of that nature of wanting to interact with everything. Origin story wise? I don't think I want to tackle where Upturned would even come from exactly, that'd take away from her being a bit of a cryptid. Maybe I'll change my mind, for now she's vague as a treat.
To answer the second question - probably Upturned because she's a diva. All Slugcats that doomed themselves with using bandages and ribbons tied around them as clothing are also victims of a long morning routine though.
And for the last one - probably doesn't because it isn't always out, she's a cultured being. On a tangent it made me wonder if Sliver of Straw, as that's her maker in this AU, would bless her with not having taste or doom her with having to taste rusted metal and moss when actually using it as a grappling hook. Also she probably looks super funny when doing that. Thankfully, we're talking about a fanfiction and not a platformer game, so tongue-grapple-hook can be limited to a last resort option/useful tool to get all the fruit growing high above down without much struggle.
Obligatory wip to not just leave a wall of text there. Thank you for the ask!
I swear I'm cooking up something evil for this au but for now it's shitpost hours enjoy Saint-Arti shenanigans AU discord here
(reupload bc I was bothered by the format + forgor about some tags)
very fun challenge!! love the scugs
Made an oc maker challenge for rw community! Inspired by @shimmeringembers & @thenalanita-art ♡
Have fun!
You guys need to know. those are my first slugcat desgins/doodles I have ever made (from like?? a year ago?). I need to archive them
I am fully aware that Rivulet looks like his bootleg toy on the last one
And a more advanced line-up. but. What even is this Enot
I am super happy with what they are now and how much they grew on me though... sobs
