Hey lads and ladies of my favorite forum!
I have been waiting to make this thread for about a year
I'm pretty much exploding from excitement and have been near tears all day
Over a year ago, i was approached by Valve to do freelance work for them, most of you know that already, cause I did those Christmas cards and stuff, but this is the first and main project I did for them. I've been working on this for months, doing revisions and working with the company that does their plushes for them.
I designed plush toys for L4D characters
They're being released one after the other, starting with the boomer.
I can't even begin to tell you how proud I am of it
I received two in the mail today, and I literally almost cried
It's incredible to hold something in your hands that you drew, I can't even begin to tell you how cool that feels.
also he makes barf noises when you press his hand (which is sort of a funny story, I had to listen to like 50 barf tracks one day to find the 10 I liked, I almost threw up myself just listening to them)
so here he is! I'm just so beyond excited about it, and munkus said I could make a thread, so here it is!

Edit: Woah, woah, wait. What? 50 bucks? That is not within my price bracket at all.
but $50 is a lot of money

I want it.
(this is cool beavo, you're cool, boomers are cool)
did you make prototypes or does the plush company work entirely off of drawings?
i have no idea how to sew

Seriously, mad congratulations, Beavo.
I wish I didn't share everyone else's opinion on the price point... i just don't have the kind of money I would like to have for something like this. I hope you sell tons of these though
bombs: he's 15inches tall.
this had taken us almost a year of revising and such
i got paid enough don't worry
On a side note I should try out L4D one or two.
