Work on the body details.

その時に筋肉を少し落とします。
Place head and see the balance.
Too much muscles, I think.
I will make him slender when his body will be
divided into 3 parts for body joints.

I really like its body line.
Too bad it will be gone after I put abdominal joint balls.
すっきりして見えます。

Material used: Japanese red pine wood, paulownia wood
and Japanese bigleaf magnolia wood.

The back also has similar structure to the one for humans.
底の直径に合わせ、
丸く布を裁断し、綿を入れます。
I made cushions which will be placed inside of these nekochigura.
Cut the fabric into circles in accordance with the size of the bottom
then stuff them with fillings.
クッションを猫の模様や猫が好きなものの柄の布で作るのも楽しいです。
手前は鯉の柄、奥は猫柄です。
2つの猫ちぐらは無事友達に貰われていきました。
It is fun to choose fabrics for these cushions:
like cat prints, patterns of the things cat likes.
The front is koi carp print, and the back is cat print.
These two Nekochiguras already found new owners Yay!
小さくするときは、底の直径を小さくします。
I made another nekochigura, which is one size smaller than the first one.
Adjust the size of nekochigura by the diameter of the bottom.

Left is the first one I made.
The diameter of the bottom is about 42cm.
Right is the second one.
