This is Granite, my (only) authentic HAS. She's got a tiny beauty spot!! She came with a tiny painted dot on her upper lip to the side of her nose. I hope it never wears off because it's just so cuuuuuuuuuuuute and I love it!!
She helps me out at work a lot.
I ordered the entire set as fufus from DHgate and I'm still exceptionally pleased with the quality. The 6 I got included Duoduo so I had to order Sisi separately. Here they all are! The 2nd photo Granite (my only authentic HAS) wanted to be included. She's a bit smaller than the fufus.
I did something different here. I've modified the pattern to have holes on the sides of the body to attach the arms and tried to do wire like in the authentic Pop Mart versions. The results were mixed. The wire I used isn't actually strong enough to do much even though I used a lot of it twisted together. I still like the modification though.
I also tried to use safety eyes with a felt back. That worked okay but I tried a different brand of fabric glue and it flat out didn't work. Speed-sew is the brand that actually holds felt to crochet really nicely and it's still flexible.
The grey is a bit lighter than the grey used for Kuromi but it's what I had.
Next I need to make the ribbon for the keychain and I'm working on the hood with the Kuromi details. 😁
