Amazing work, Catsby! I LOVE Soanne, but I think I'd prefer her in medium form - this is just precious I'm sooo tempted to commission you for some of these. There are a lot of big Zelfs I like but I'd rather have them a little more compact haha. Cute stuff! |

Many thanks Twinkle! , I'd love to see more people doing customs, so many choices and designs you could do!?!?! If you need any advice on having a go, you know where I am! Lol. Yeah, the larges take up a bit of room don't they? Much prefer the mediums, and the lil's don't have enough detail on them I find! Mediums are perfect!! Here's a list of things I generally use, for making customs - paints or even better paint pens of various colours, sharpie pens, a small screwdriver for removing the hair for swapping, scissors, pearly paints, craft foam pieces, pipe cleaners, extra fine glitter, craft glue, paintbrushes - well I'm sure you get the idea!!! |

I've made other custom toys in the past, so it's something I could certainly have a go at Perhaps you could write up a tutorial some time if you wanted, as I'm sure others would be interested in seeing it too? In the meantime, please do keep sharing your amazing work - they're always so nice to see! |

They're great! Love your take on the characters, especially the Cheshire Cat - not seen a green version before The Mad Hatter is darling too, with his little harlequin pants! |

Thanks twinklestah, yeah they're kind of my own interpretations of characters! A green Cheshire Cat?!? Why not? Haha. I kinda think my Mad Hatter looks a little Willy Wonka-ish too, don't you think??? Many thanks too cutiepie, you're too kind! |

Yes, Catsby a Wonka-inspired Zelf would be pretty fun! Specifically the Gene Wilder version |

it's really awesome! did moose get inspiration out if this? with the new dog zelf and the giraffe zelf? who knows Ha! I like to think so!!! In Series 4, three of my customs got made into Zelfs, and this time another two!!! I totally didn't even think about my doggy Zelf and Ditty Dot either!?! And I know I had suggested a couple of others in the speculation thread that got made also, so it can't just be coincidental. Can it??? If anyone from Moose Company is reading this, I have tons of ideas for future Zelfs and am happy to share them! If you like them, then use them for ideas!!!! Squeeeeeeee!!!!!! *-* |

That's awesome! ^^ Maybe they actually do watch the forum. ^^ Which three in series 4 did they make into Zelfs, Starkle?
You know Starkle, I was curious. Do you do custom commissions of Zelfs?

It was my Galaxy, Monkey and Water Dragon Zelfs (though they did much better jobs than I did!) Ziraous! I don't really have much time at the moment to do commissions Zira, maybe in a few months time ask me again!!! |

Hi Cutiepieclover, I usually get a bundle/batch of them cheap (if I can) off Ebay. I just use whatever ones I have and fit the theme I'm working on. I just keep an eye out for bargains, and have used different ones from S1/S2/S3 in the ones I've made! Good luck with it, and can't wait to see what you come up with though!!! XD

Wow, these are so cool! I love the idea of customizing Zelfs. I think my favorites are the Alice in Wonderland ones-- the green Cheshire Cat rocks! |

Awww thankyou Iristigress! Its good fun making up your own Zelfs, though some do take time to do! Haha. My philosophy is keep them simple! Ah, I'm glad you like the Wonderland Zelfs, especially Cheshire Cat!!!! He was good fun to make! |

AHHH it is SUCH an amazing concept for Zelfs, fairy Tale (or in this case, opiate-induced-fantasty) themed Zelfs! I love it They're incredible and so are you! <3 you really must show off pics of all of your amazing customs in a group shot one day I'm sure my eyes would roll out of my head!! Stunning work, darlin'~ |

So, I've been pretty busy these last few months, and not had any time to do new Custom Zelfs, but hopefully September might be a little quieter for me, so I wanna get back to making some new Zelfs! Do you Zelfies, have any ideas on new Zelfs you would like to see???
