Had no work to do today so I made a little wooden frog with some scrap wood. I think I’ll make some more, probably a bit bigger, and sell them on my Etsy store.

And I only cut myself twice!

Back at it

Well it’s been a while, I hope everyone is doing alright in this crazy, covid world we now live in.

Anyway, a quick frog.

I have a shop!

So in my last post I showed a soft toy frog and talked about selling them on Etsy. Well I have worked on the design over the last couple of weeks and now my store is live! https://www.etsy.com/au/shop/MyFrogCrafts

25% of all sales will go towards helping the Australian Corroboree Frog. These distinct yellow and black frogs are dying off at an alarming rate largely due to the Chytrid fungus. It is thought that numbers in the wild are now as low as 50 although with the recent bushfire crisis it could now be even lower.
Sydney’s Toronga Zoo currently has a breeding program for these little guys and this is where the donation will be going, if you would like to make an additional donation follow this link – https://zooshop.taronga.org.au/appeal/corroboree-frog-appeal-1

Soft frog

So I have been thinking about creating an Etsy store lately and selling some frog related things I create on there. This is the first stage of planning for a plushy/stuffed toy that I am designing. It’s not quite there yet, I have some issues with the legs and overall time it took to put together (also ignore the rough stitching, once I get the design sorted out it will all look much cleaner).

His name is Ribbert
On a side note, I actually quite liked the more simple version before I added the eyes.

Hello my baby

Here is a little animation I have been working on during my train rides to work. It is based off the old Warner Brothers Merrie Melodies animtion, One Froggy Evening.

This is still a work in progress, I need to add in face controls to get in some facial animation but I though I might as well show where it is at now.

I’m back (maybe)

It’s been a while since I last posted, been working on some other stuff and just relaxing a bit more, posting every day was starting to get a bit stressful.

So yeah, I’m going to start posting again but not every day, I’m going to aim for 2-3 times a week.

Here is a Lemur tree frog.
