Can my $400 DIY beat 2 OFFICIAL Scooby-Doo plushies!? | Buy vs DIY!

[@A2ryn]

Don't mind me I'm just watching your video at 3 a.m. to calm down from panic attack, but your work is lovely

[@sewmicah]

Aw, Thank you so much! I hope it helped!🥺💛

[@Scytherwolf]

That pattern you made is so impressive! And I like the puppydog eyes haha. all the plushies seem awesome so I'm not surprised a tie happened

[@sewmicah]

Aw, thank you so much!!! Ties are inevitable but I’m honored to have tied with such a cutie this time around!💛

[@sgprincess415]

Omg your Scooby plush is so freakin adorable! I’m obsessed!

[@sewmicah]

Awww! Thank you so much!!! You’re absolutely too sweet!😭🥺💛💛💛

[@asiamurdock7319]

You are 100% a man I can trust with my drink. Also my dream home has like at least 2 rooms dedicated to plushies. I love them so much

[@sewmicah]

Awwww, thank you so much!!! Plushies are my absolute LIFE BLOOD lol! So two rooms dedicated to them sounds like a dream lol!!!

[@retro6069]

u didnt let urself win omg u are such a saint

[@loopsiedaisy]

What an adorable Scooby 🥺💖

[@sewmicah]

Awww! Thank you so much!💛💛💛

[@DJSpinat]

Your work is absolutely amazing, Micah! I love how much detail and creativity you put into your projects-it’s inspiring to see such talent. I was wondering, could you make a custom plushie of Rob U. Blynd from Watershed Records? It would be incredible to see your take on such a unique character!

[@sewmicah]

Awwwweee!!!! Thank you so much! You’re the absolute sweetest!🧁💛 Unfortunately I do not take requests, but I appreciate so much how much you like my work and how you phrased your request! I see SO many people just demand that I make something and it really makes me lose faith in humanity at times.😅 So thank you so much for your interest in my work and for being so kind on top of that!!!🥺💛💛💛

[@bsignsstudios]

I am overwhelmed with childhood nostalgia in a good way

[@sewmicah]

Awwww! Thank you so much!!! Honestly, that’s one of the best comments I could get on this video! 🥺💛

[@bsignsstudios]

@@sewmicah Np, I'm currently working on a plush of Gremile Hotshot from StrawberryOctii's indie game, Kings of Hell

[@sewmicah]

Neat!!!

[@bsignsstudios]

@sewmicah Speaking of plushies, I'm making that cute cowboy imp character named Gremile from an indie game called Kings of Heck (not everyone is comfortable with the other word)

[@moda78z]

Your Scooby is the best looking one, no doubt! If you only went by looks, he is 100/10 😍👍 And I’m always amazed by how you’re even able to construct your patterns! How long did that take you? And don’t bother adding the cost of your sewing machine etc. You’re not trying to show us how much it would cost for anyone to make him. It’s the cost for YOU making him. Big hugs from Sweden! ❤️

[@sewmicah]

Awww! Thank you so much! You’re too sweet!!!🥺💛💛💛 I don’t think I timed the actual pattern making and prototyping but if I had to estimate I’d say it probably took something like 5-7 hours for the prototype and 8-10 hours for the pattern? (Maybe more? I worked on Scooby’s pattern on and off for a good long while.😅) I just know that people can get really frustrated when creators don’t mention the cost of equipment in things like this so to (hopefully) avoid a hoard of comments telling me I’m lying about how much the plushie costs to make, it may be in my best interest to keep giving 2 prices in my buy vs DIY videos.😅 (I can get overwhelmed with tons of comments like that so I try my best to cover all my bases!) It is so awesome to hear I have viewers in Sweden though!!! My sister actually went to school there so that’s really neat!😁💛 But thank you so much again! I’m so glad you enjoyed the video!!!💛

[@moda78z]

@@sewmicahcreating the pattern itself must be the most difficult part. And you’re right, better to just up both prices 👍👍 And how fun that your sister ended up going to school here!

[@sewmicah]

Sometime it is! But sometimes the pattern can actually come along super easily! (Especially if I’ve already made one like it before lol!) this was… not one of those times lol! She definitely liked it there so I’m sure it’s lovely!!!

[@brianahawkins8124]

So cute! I love scooby Doo when I was a little girl.

[@sewmicah]

Awww! Thank you so much! Scooby doo has really been a huge part of SO many people’s childhoods, I’m so glad I could finally make some proper fanart for him!🥺💛

[@sophiagee4458]

Me too, I like animated Scooby doo better

[@TeddyAtTheCreativeNook]

*runs in from work to watch* Aaah, he looks fantastic & I love that you included his jowls on yours!! - not a detail you often see in plushies💙 Now, I'm going to have to get the BaB one (at some point) he's really cute!

[@sewmicah]

Ah! Thank you so much!!! You’re so sweet!!! Honestly, it’s such an easy way to upgrade the look of a plushie without having to use any embroidery! Animals are 3D shapes and making their 3D details 2D can really cheapen their look! It’s obviously easier to figure out an embroidery file, but it’s cheaper to make these 3D shapes with fabric than to have to buy digitizing software!😂 And YES! You should DEFINITELY get the build a bear one at some point! He really is super nice! I just wish they hadn’t used the cheap fabric on his details! (Especially the nose! How am I supposed to boop THAT!?)

[@TeddyAtTheCreativeNook]

@@sewmicah Not me only just realising I never replied here 🤦‍♀ honestly, it does make him look soooo good! Haha, I will! Especially as I collect the Loveable Legends, it kinda makes sense to have him anyways, ya know, as he hunts 'monsters' 😆(btw, did you manage to get the Mothman?)

[@Seth_Arts]

Your Scooby looks ADORABLE!!! Awesome job!

[@sewmicah]

Ah! Thank you so much! You’re too sweet!!!🥺💛💛💛

[@ritaandrunt5767]

All three of these Scooby's are equally wholesome as they are adorable in my perspective especially the home-made one He reminds me of Scooby's puppy design Specifically the design of him from a pup named Scooby-Doo With a bit of a muppet / puppet look to him but that makes him all the more adorable also I own that excat same Scooby that you have I first saw him at box lunch and then later on I was able to eventually get him and he's been well loved and used he's always watching over and guarding my bed And at night and when I go to sleep he's right by my side watching over me while I sleep he came out in 2019 and I've had mine for about almost as long I ether ended up getting him in 2019 or 2020 but whatever year that I ended up getting him in He's still being well loved and used just not as much or as frequently as he was when I first got him but he's still adorable no matter what same with those other two Scooby plushies

[@davidaamaya1]

Better then, velma it also looks like the jim henson puppet for the scooby doo movie it's really great

[@sewmicah]

Aw! Thank you! I actually had no idea Jim Henson made a Scooby puppet! I watched those live action movies NON STOP as a kid!😅💛💛💛

[@davidaamaya1]

@sewmicah the movie was supposed to have a puppet but then decided to use cgi and keep up the good work

[@sewmicah]

I heard! I googled it as soon as I saw your comment! It’s super interesting! And thank you so much again!

[@sophiagee4458]

Hi, SewMicah, Can You Do Al Pup From PAW Patrol: Big Truck Pups DIY Plush In The Future, Please? Because Al Pup Was A Toy Figure. Can You Do That In Next Month, Please?

[@sewmicah]

Sorry! I don’t take requests, but I’m glad you like my work enough to ask, especially so kindly!😁💛

[@sophiagee4458]

Okay, Maybe Next Year In 2025?

[@sewmicah]

@@sophiagee4458 sorry, like I said, I don’t take requests and that won’t be changing in the foreseeable future.😅

[@nichdiemama1394]

It makes me anxious seeing this needles so near to your face please dont poke yourself😅 but you do a fantastic job !

[@sewmicah]

lol! Thank you so much! And don’t worry! My face is never in danger of being poked! My HANDS however have seen their fare share of pokes, scratches, and even a SNIP! (Note: don’t cut fabric sitting on the palm of your hand lol! 😂)
