Giftart for Adalanne!

Title: Huff Puff
Gift for: [livejournal.com profile] adalanne
Artist: [livejournal.com profile] djinnj
Rating:: R
Fandom: The 10th Kingdom
Characters: Wolf
Warnings: Nudity, silliness
Artist notes: I hadn't even thought of The 10th Kingdom before getting the assignment but the moment I saw 'Wolf' I went "must do!" I had hoped to provide more of his costume (boots and a coat) but this season is kicking my ass. Which reminds me that many, many heartfelt thanks go to the very-patient-indeed mods. This is a combination of knitting with a bit of crochet, embroidery and needle felting. It's worked up in wool yarn, mohair yarn, cotton embroidery thread, leather cord, metal findings, and permanent marker. The belly of the wolf joins with the back of the man. Stuff the body of one into the body of the other, hook up the seam, for your own werewolf transformation whenever you like. Just mind the shepherdesses. (And I may have shorted Wolf, but it was very cold when I took the pictures.) I'd be happy to send [livejournal.com profile] adalanne the doll after reveals are up. :)

MOD NOTE- A series of six photos depict the transformation. Image heavy.

How cute!

(Though, I can't get over that it's *cough* anatomically correct. Wow, lol. XD)

Hee, thanks! (I still feel guilty for shorting him, too. XD)

That is the coolest thing ever! Seriously amazing!

I don't know the fandom, but a werewolf doll that you can turn inside out for the transformation is awesome.

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee, thanks! It would be easy to change him for the fandom, too. A werewolf is a werewolf is a werewolf, after all. Although not all are as dapper as Wolf. :)

[identity profile] tylercat.livejournal.com 2008-12-28 11:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow I am amazed that it transforms! That is so cool

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
:D Thanks! It was one of those ideas that begged to be done.

Oh my God this is amazing. :O You are very talented.

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee! Thanks, I'm glad you like it!

OMG this is adorable and I love everything about it. :D

hee, I just had to share that I love your icon, especially because I am wearing a sweatshirt with that on it right now ^_^

YOU. ARE. OMG. AMAZING.

that is the most incredible thing I've ever seen. YOU WIN THE EARTH.

i especially love the second 'extra' picture where the tail is coming out... WOW!!!!

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 08:56 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee! Glad you like him. :D I had to make his tail work when he's in man form. It was too important an aspect to leave out. ;)

Thanks! :D

[identity profile] froggie.livejournal.com 2008-12-29 03:41 am (UTC)(link)
Holy wow. That's brilliant! Really innovative idea, great handiwork, and aslkfds so cute.

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee, thanks! I'm disappointed that I didn't manage to make him boots, but his little bare feet crack me up. :D

[identity profile] sae.livejournal.com 2008-12-29 06:14 am (UTC)(link)
!!

I am in awe at the intensity of your knitting skills. That looks so professional!

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 08:58 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks! :D He was a lot of work, but a lot of fun, too :)

[identity profile] unithien-rerith.livejournal.com 2008-12-29 06:50 am (UTC)(link)
I can't even imagine how difficult this was to do. You are AMAZING.

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 08:59 pm (UTC)(link)
:D Thanks! There was a lot of trial and error involved, but I was cracking up for most of it. ;) Glad you like him!

OMG! That is seriously amazing. It must have taken you forever.

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 09:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks! It took longer than I expected, but that's just because I'm not as good at visualizing in 3d as I think I am. ;) Glad you like him!

[identity profile] kilted.livejournal.com 2008-12-29 10:42 am (UTC)(link)
That is one of the most awesome things I have EVER seen.

:D Thanks!

[identity profile] gardendoor.livejournal.com 2008-12-29 01:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow! What a creative use of knitting! You really managed to surprise me, and I like both the details of the individual pieces and how you chose to shoot the transformation sequence. Nicely done!

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 09:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks! Wolf is a surprising fellow. ;) Glad you like it! :D

[identity profile] kaiserkuchen.livejournal.com 2008-12-29 01:12 pm (UTC)(link)
CRAZY AWESOMESAUCE holyyyyy shit *_*bb Crafty things like this are so great ♥

ext_872: eye with red flower petals as eyelashes (i'm all girly and curvy)

[identity profile] bossymarmalade.livejournal.com 2008-12-29 05:28 pm (UTC)(link)
That is just BRILLIANT! Even down to how you photographed it next to a shoebrush hedgehog!! And I cannot believe I am only the second person to comment on the awesome crazy that is his WOOL PENIS. The design is sheer crafty genius, the execution is flawless, and the whole thing is eighteen pounds of fun stuffed into a five-pound wolf skin. You are astounding!!

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee! It's a shoebrush frog, which I thought was even funnier. :D And yeah, I think the wool penis sort of defies comment for a lot of people. XD Thanks! I think Wolf would enjoy that description of himself, too. XD

[identity profile] thistle-chaser.livejournal.com 2008-12-29 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow, so cool! This must have taken you forever to make!

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 09:08 pm (UTC)(link)
Heh, not forever but longer than expected. Thanks! Glad you like him. :)

[identity profile] dun.livejournal.com 2008-12-29 08:21 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow! This is so ingenious -- *picks jaw from floor'. I can't believe all the details you've managed to incorporate and such a clever construction for the transformation between wolf and man.

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 09:10 pm (UTC)(link)
Thanks! I had a lot of fun plotting out how to make him and figuring out how to fit it all together. I'm just glad it all worked in the end! XD

[identity profile] 22by7.livejournal.com 2008-12-29 09:44 pm (UTC)(link)
this is fvcking incredible! you win at life, art and the internet. how long did this take?

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 09:11 pm (UTC)(link)
Hee! Thanks! Hm, hard to say, maybe 2 weeks of solid knitting? It took a lot longer because I kept starting and stopping, but altogether I think it added up to 2 weeks spread out over more like 6.

[identity profile] adalanne.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 08:19 am (UTC)(link)
Oh. My. God. The sheer awesomeness of this is beyond words. Seriously. OMG, he can even have the tail as a human! XD So fantastic!

And honestly, you have no idea how appropriate this is. I love knitted dolls from my fandoms (not that I have the skills to make them, but I know such brilliant people ^_^). I've got a Luna Lovegood and Death of Rats, and while I hesitate to take something so absolutely amazing from its creator, I would love having this after reveals.

I am in such awe of your skills and cleverness.

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 08:50 pm (UTC)(link)
I'm ridiculously behind schedule in responding to everyone, but I had to drop in and say YAY, you like it! :D And if you send me a mailing address I can pop him in the mail. :) djinnj(at)gmail(dot)com.

I've added a couple more eyes to the hooks and eyes on his back, so he hooks up more neatly as a man. It makes his chest a little sleeker, too. :)

I am so amazed by your skill. It looks fantastic and seamless and very much like the original!

[identity profile] djinnj.livejournal.com 2009-01-10 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
:D Thanks! I'm very proud of the seamless part, actually. XD There are only 2 seams on him, one to close up the wolf's hind leg holes, and the one to join the man to the wolf. Glad you like him!

[identity profile] rasetsunyo.livejournal.com 2008-12-30 01:43 pm (UTC)(link)
That is like the SINGLE MOST AMAZING THING I've seen all year. It's brilliant, you're brilliant, this is awesome and so well made!!
