All throughout his production I snapped photos documenting the various stages of development and I want to share those with you today along with info about how he was assembled. The payoff in making him was all the knowledge I acquired along the way and seeing people’s delighted reactions when he was completed. This is a strictly one-of-a-kind creation and I would never attempt reproducing him to sell. Now, it is worth noting that this was a project of insanity and love, AKA – not for profit. As a doll-maker myself, I fully appreciate the time and skill it takes to create even a small reproduction, but my love of a challenge drove me to step forward and suggest I could make something much, MUCH bigger for less than the price of the small one.
One of my best friends, Beckie, shared a picture of an art-doll of Falkor from the Never-Ending Story and asked if anyone she knew had the skills to make her one like it. But what could have possibly possessed me to tackle such a gigantic project? Well, it all started last year on Facebook… Measuring a whopping 13 feet long from nose to tail-tip and comprising several yards of fleece, fur, foam, and a full 10lb box of fiber fill stuffing, he is my largest custom build to date.
