Today I want to show you some felt commission I had not shown yet here.  I apologize in advance for some of the pictures, I  had another camera and as you can see, neither it was a very good one nor was I a skilled photographer.


A Patrick Star brooch :




And a Squidward Tentacles keychain:



 



Buttercup from Powerpuff Girls (sorry! I don't know why this pics look so dark!) :








A chibi Cthulhu... so cruel and so cute at the same time!

Look behind you! A three-headed monkey!

This is my geeky amigurumi of the week. Maybe you recognized him: This is Guybrush Threepwood, the protagonists of the Monkey Island video game saga .



When I started to show people the kind of dolls I made,  guys (I can mention here Dani, Alb, Edu...) told me " you should do a Guybrush, you should do a Guybrush"".  Well, done. In this case is for my friend Dani, whom I owed a lemming since I don't know when. So instead of that I made this doll which I knew he'd like better.You know, to make it up for the lateness.

Here are some pics:



He has eyebrows and a prominent nose. The goatee and the forelock were tricky, but I think they ended up ok. I don't know which color  the pixelated eyes of  Guybrush are, so I decided blue suited him well..



I tried hard to make the body and clothes very detailed without using felt. Everything is crocheted or embroidered. I'm really happy with the results. I made him in the Monkey Island II outfit since it was Dani's favorite. Here are some pics of the original for reference:

















Sorry if it sounds wrong, but I think is one of my best works to date.

I hope you like it and that you tell me what you think of him!



PS: Maybe in the future I will crochet something like this three headed monkey, so freaky and cute:
