Mini Plushie Present, Will the Ranger

~Done for my beloved cousin Jesse Augustus for his birthday, at his request ~

The last time my younger cousins dropped by for a quick visit, about a month ago now, I had brought my Senbonzakura along to show off, since I’d finished him the night before. Both of them were impressed by the sword (figures ) and didn’t believe that’s what I was working on now.

Getting excited about it, the older of the two started telling me all about this book he was reading, and the character he liked in it. I started making notes about Will from The Ranger’s Apprentice, and was asked if I could make a plushie of him for his birthday this year.

Checking around google, I found a few references to boot, and put him together not only in time for his birthday in two weeks, but for our County Fair as well!! Of course, I didn’t submit him with the recurve bow and his quiver of arrows; things like that get lost too easily. But, he’ll be going out complete at the end of the week to make it in time.

…Now I just have to dig out some wrapping paper that doesn’t have snowmen or penguins on them!!
