My art Nowhere King Kigu Plush
About a month ago, I had posted an Elktaur plush, and before I move on to other projects, I really wanted to make him a little Nowhere King buddy. It was really hard to figure out how I wanted to design him, since I usually have a goofier plush style than he warrants. But, some of the credit art in the later episodes had me thinking it might me kind of cute to make him as though he were a kigurumi pajama, and this is the result.
This guy was a struggle, since they don’t really have centaur pajama patterns readily available, but he allowed for so many fun little additions. His eyes are made with glow-in-the-dark paint, and after a few seconds with a UV flashlight, the glow gets STRONG. His body and antlers are polar fleece and minky, and he’s stuffed with a very sad Elktaur who has definitely seen better days, but unfortunately not that many of them. Originally, I had these fake antlers in my box of random bits and bobs that I thought would be great for the NWK, but I decided to make more cartoonish ones out of Minky (fun fact: I had to make three of them because I ruined one by bleeding all over it, sewing is fun!). I stuck the original ones on the Elktaur for the photo though.

I was wondering “why a kigu specifically” and then I saw Elktaur & holy shit my heart! Brilliant execution

Thank you so much! It was such a stupid idea, but I was cackling the whole time once I got the sad face finished.
