Shapes Series - 1) Circular Series

I’m super excited to unveil my latest series of tutorials, and it’s my very first attempt at video tutorials! Go check it out here or on YouTube and remember to pin the image above if you found it useful!

If you are wondering why I’m going through all these basic shapes, they are super crucial to figuring out how to design your own amigurumi!

First up, I’ll be going through the easiest and yet most essential shape series, consisting of circles, spheres and cylinders. Here’s the rough outline in the next few posts:

Circular series

How I used circles, spheres and bobbles in my Amigurumi

To illustrate my point, this is how I integrated those simple shapes into my Looney Tunes Amigurumi!

These 3 examples I have shown has these 3 basic 2D and 3D components in them and makes up a small section of the whole ami. Of course there are loads of other shapes, but that will be covered subsequently.

Do look out for more of my little Looney Tunes ami showcasing little 2D and 3D shapes!

I’m just test piloting to see if this is helpful and well received - there will be other shape-related tutorials after this and how they relate to making Amigurumi so do stay tuned!
