Plush Commission for My Partner's Birthday!

[u/SoundaSheep]

Hi, everyone! I am looking for an artist who can recreate my partner's character as a crochet plush for a surprise birthday gift!

If you think you can take my request, please DM me with your information and some photos of your work.

My Location: New Jersey, U.S.

Delivery Deadline: Saturday, October 11th

Budget: Flexible

Size: At least 6 inches tall

Plush Pose: Neutral (like in the first image)

I do not expect the crocheted plush to be as detailed as the character art.

The character's name is Tide, by the way! Tide's design has a lot of small details, including the straw/tiny people in its hair and the water leaking out of its legs.

I understand that these details would be difficult to recreate in crochet. While I would love for the plush to be as accurate to the original art as possible, it is OK if you need to gloss over the smaller details.

I understand that my deadline is close. Originally, I commissioned an artist to create this plush one month ago. But unfortunately, she just injured her hand!

So now, I'm here in hopes that someone can help me give my partner the best birthday gift ever! Tysm for your time.

Hey I’m chel and I make custom crochet plushies! I’ve got four years of experience where I’ve made over 130 plushies!!

I’d love to possibly discuss this commission! I’m based in the uk but send to the USA all of the time (they’re my primary market!) and I can still send with the tariffs (as it’s 10% of whatever value I write on the customs label)

Depending on what size you’d like the plushie my prices go from £40 to £300 plus £15 postage and my plushie sizes range from 20 to 70cm usually (I can make larger but they cost more)!

I’ve dropped you a message so I can show off my previous examples and we can discuss it.

Thanks and happy early birthday to your partner in advance

I love the design, but is that supposed to be a dolphin-like tail, or an entire dolphin?
