Giant Microbes does not have haloarchaea, so I must take matters into my own hands.
This is my first attempt but I’m not the happiest with it because it prioritizes look over tactile feel. It is overstuffed so it’s not very squishy, and the tail is posable but the archaellum wire isn’t fun to cuddle.
Here’s attempt 2, going for something softer, less detailed, and cuter. Soft minky, not overstuffed, and it’s weighed down with plastic beans. Wanted to make it extra cute and added a lil tag to write my signature.
What do you think? Do you prefer my first attempt more?
I might make a tiny keychain version of one of these soon. I also want to make a bunch of these for my lab members but I need to collect more materials beforehand, both plushes were made with scraps.
