Happy #PortfolioDay !
I'm Avanii, a plush and convention artist from the Netherlands! I design and handmake plush animals in realistic and toony styles. I also draw and paint animals, fantasy creatures, and semi-realistic Pokemon! Currently obsessed with volcanoes 🌋

Working on a new line of mini plush! They can stand thanks to their tail, and with the loop and ring you can also attach them to a bag, lanyard etc. They are little travel buddies 🥰 I started with mustelids, but what other animals should I make? #handmadeplush #ferret #weasel #avanii

*This* is what the people of Pompeii, and Herculaneum, and many other hapless souls saw—this is what a pyroclastic density current looks coming RIGHT at you.

Stunning footage from earlier today, when the new Kilauea eruption covered the USGS Webcam 3, which is situated in the Halemaʻumaʻu crater near the southern rim of the much larger Kilauea caldera.

This *isn't* what the people of Pompeii saw.

But it's not very far off.

European badgers are very social and as such, I have to make a buddy for this lass as soon as possible 😂 She’s not even finished yet but here we go! It’ll be a classic grey one this time. #handmadeplush

Working on a new plush pattern: big laying #badger! I’m so pleased with this prototype so far 🥰 The colours are based on erythristic badgers, I’ll also make a classic grey one later! Photos show various stages of the plush making process. I did tons of thread sculpting on the paws! #handmadeplush

So I really like making plush Typhlosions 🥰 Here’s all the different types I’ve made: from ‘’comfy friends’, to jointed vintage toy style, beanies, and big & realistic. And #Quilava 😂 A couple will be up for adoption at Dutch Comic Con this weekend!#handmadeplush #typhlosion #pokemonart #pokemon

Aw yeah it's almost HDCC time, my last convention of the year! Find me, Avanii, in the DEALER HALL at booth H14. Working hard to get the last few plushies and patches done before the weekend starts. Will I see you there? :D

When you go to buy from an individual creator this season please remember the price at checkout (in person or online) is not what they will see reflected in their account

Fees, immediate taxes, and future taxes cut what they would make often in half

We price for that, so please be understanding!

Back at it with the #typhlosion plushies! They will be up for adoption at my Dutch Comic Con booth next week. But first, the hisuian needed a manicure (sculpting paws) 🤭 It’s gonna be hard to say goodbye, these plush are so soft! Inspired by the Comfy Friends/Fuwa line #handmadeplush #pokemonart

As the sun was setting over the ruins, Vesuvio's unrest grew rapidly. It was time to leave this place...

Pahoe’s volcanic adventures: Vulcano island! Such a beautiful (and slightly smelly) place. I love how the plush’ colours match this volcano 🌋🥰 #volcano #vulcano #handmadeplush

Kīlauea episode 35 has arrived. The double fountain shot is from one of the HVO interns, Christina. All are taken from the public viewing areas.

Arrived in Italy for a tour of its volcanoes, first stop: Naples! Vesuvius’ presence is visible all over, from the actual mountain to logos and name references all around. But its lesser known, larger cousin, Campi Flegrei, announced itself too: I felt a quake originating from there just now 😮
