The original character concept was translated into a practical plush construction while materials were selected to match the intended yellow and brown color directions. The first physical samples established the basic proportions, structure and assembly approach for further review.
For this Japanese-market project, the final facial direction was determined by combining preferred details from different sample rounds. The outer muzzle panel proportion followed the third sample, while the nose and mouth embroidery used the size and positioning of the second sample, creating the final approved facial balance.
