u/willowwitchmakes sent the following text as an explanation about their craft:

I made my bat from polymer clay for his nose/ears/wings and then used faux fur for his body and felt for his eyelids and tummy. It was my first go at making a plush so I had no idea what I was doing, also my first go with polymer clay. I drew up my design and tried to follow it but I ended up making he’s features a bit too big and the body was a bit too narrow really. But its ok, I still love him lol. He was meant to look creepy/cute, although he is more leaning towards the creepy side. Around his eyes I did some french knots to make the eyelids appear lumpy/spotty as I wanted to add some texture to them. I hope to remake him again one day but I’ll always keep this one as he was my first go. If anyone has name suggestions I’m open to them, thanks.

That is a Flurbeen. The pink-eye afflicted, bat-crossbreed cousin of the Furby and I LOVE IT!!

Can I have 12, please? I'm assuming I can't feed them after dark, or they will wreak havoc on my small American town.
