I am a big fan of animator Adam Philips work. Aspecially the animation shorts he has done for his Brackenwood series. When watching 'Little Foot' I fell in love with the small orange monster straight away.
Heres a link to the animation I am talking about.

Though the designing of the Little Foot is very simple. This took me hours to sew together! You wouldnt think so, but it took me 3 days to finally finish off, spending about 5 hours a day.
The Eyes were the trickiest part in making him. As they were so small and I was sewing a silk material for the lighter red shade in his eyes. That unraveled very easily so i had to sew over it alot with the sewing machine. The white highlights are little pieces of white cotton. I had to sew these onto the red eyes and then onto a piece of rough paper so that I could handle each piece, without me getting my fingers caught in the machine.
Any comments or feedback would be appreciated.
Thank you!
