Description

Data~~ <3
Tribute to my favorite character on Star Trek: TNG
and the amazing actor who portray him, Mr. Brent Spiner.


Took me couple weeks because I was working on it off and on, so basically working for a day then slacking off for a week.
The hair took forever, I think almost as long as everything else combined. I was trying to make it look like his actual hairstyle, turn out kind of meh, but I'm too exhausted to work on it more.

A patch on the head open up and you can see a part of Data's interior positronic brain =)
If you close the light, it GLOWS!
Too bad I can't find any other color glow in the dark thread to use so it's only this eerie green.

The badge was some gold foil and glitter (which Data have some sprinkled on his face to simulate his metallic artificial skin, which you can't really tell from the picture).

I sewed the rank on the collar. I decided to go with the post 2nd season but pre-movie Generation uniform because it's the one we see Data wear the most often.
The uniform was fun to make, the back is a little different just like in the TV show.

I drew the facial features in Photoshop and printed on the iron transfer paper. Then they are cut out with scalpel then iron on, so they should be waterproof and washable (though it can’t be tossed in the washer due to the other components, but I wouldn’t wash it anyways, it’s going to be on some shrine or something LOL)

I’m still thinking whether I should make a utility belt and give him a phaser or tricoder, but if I do then it’ll be for another day.

overall size: 7~8" or around 19cm

Material:
- Felt: black, gold, ivory, dark brown
- various color treads including glow in the dark thread
- iron on transfer paper
- computer+printer
- glitter
- sculpey(shoes)
- scissors/scalpel

This is my second plushie, first one is Taemin made for a friend’s birthday present.
