#furby customization

[salems-toybox]

okay it took FOREVER and was way more difficult than i had anticipated but here’s customized and plushyified(sp?) Cool Ranch!! he isn’t done, he has earrings coming in the mail, but…for my first custom it could be worse i guess? my greatest struggle was the acrylic paint markers. i’ve never worked with acrylics and you can tell 😭😭 any advice on how to maybe fix some of his paint would be appreciated! the beak especially i feel like looks pretty bad :( the eyechips are from foolclowns on Tumblr, i will link the post in the replies

i'm making a zine about furby fashion!

inspired by the stylish furby (jpn) (eng) magazine that was released by tomy in 1999, but this time featuring the energy of what the modern furby fandom has become in 2025 (anarchic/queer/DIY/subversive/surreal/filtered through several layers of internet brain).

you can let me know if you're interested in contributing here! i'll do my best to reply to everyone ASAP, deadline for this volume is March 1st, but if there's enough interest i may publish more in the future?

also i do most of my Furbyposting on my instagram if you wanna follow me there.

please note that this is for artists 18 & over, just because i want to be wary of different legislation around collecting & sharing folks' information - but you can always make your own zine!

I have a bit of a conundrum- I want to decorate/customize Yuri (right) but I don't want her to look too much like Yaoi (left). If anyone has any suggestions for an aesthetic I can use for Yuri I'd love some ideas!! :3

Snow photoshoot with Lait Fraise (featuring me and my dog Dexter)! Might do one with other furbs later!

My custom furbys

Wormigear is the only one not in the the wings+horns club!

I couldn't make a steampunk furby without a top hat that would be wrong

My friend Ia asked me how I would furby-ify these shoes and ngl I am in love with this concept. Watch out for me entering my journey of becoming an actual costum furby artist for my friends because this would be so fun to create

POTENTIALLY UNPOPULAR OPINION

(IM SORRY BUT I JUST HAVE TO GET THIS OFF MY CHEST!!)

People who customize Furbies purely to sell them make me a little sad, but truly I don't take much issue with it as long as they are skilled and have put in a lot of time, effort, and thought. (And just to be clear I don't take as much issue with commissions because they are made for someone to love and idk it's just not as sad to me...)

BUT, when someone who doesn't care about the outcome, or is maybe not experienced really at all, or kind of just didn't do a good job of customizing does it for the sole purpose of selling (just to be extra clear, you can do a bad job and be extremely inexperienced with Furby customization, and keep the Furby. I don't have an issue with that at all!! It's when they're poorly made and meant to be sold that I take a bit of issue with,,) then I get a little irked...

Like I'm happy you're being creative and doing something that makes you happy, BUT, maybe just wait to sell the things you create until you are more experienced??

TLDR: PUT DOWN THE HOT GLUE GUN & RIT DYE AND STEP AWAY FROM THE FURBY!!! D;
