The Triquimoches - Vega Lyrae

I just stumbled upon this store, because she stumbled up on kriture first :)
So yes, hearting other people stores on etsy is a good thing, because you make yourself more visible, and hearting stores that are similar to your store is also a good thing, since both can love each other works, that is what just happened here.

 I love to see silly dumb animals that are colorful and make me laugh, I can wash away my negative toughs for seconds.



Vega Lyrae is from Spain, and has this really recent project named The Triquimoches. And she does a lovely job doing the plushies, she uses really nice fabrics, and they seem to be soft and warm almost like flannel! I looove that because you can stick them against your face and it's comforting and fluffy, I always sleep with these kind of sheets, pajamas and socks.

She has now on sale on her etsy store two kind of Triquimoches, Furry colored man dressed in colorful fabrics, and ... animal monster alike silly cuties :D

I love the way she nailed it, I used to sew furniture for my dolls, and I think she did a good job capturing volumetric forms on her monsters, principally the Carcolitos that are fluffy colorful snail monsters. They are perfect for decorating a room, they have a nice size, and are available on different colors.

Fugjub

Name: Fugjub
What I do: Stay in a high place
Task: Watch out for predators
Likes: To pretend that he's going to eat other kritures
Body: light brown, warm, strong teeth
Ability: His ears help him feel sound
Food: Cleptoparasitism


Fugjub is not a bad kriture, he just likes to annoy other kritures. He can feel low sound vibrations and pretend that he's stronger than he actually is, that is how he scares kritures to steal their food, since he doesn't like to search for it.

Falling Objects

As we were finishing our journey across the new world full of new mountains,

                    Furzz feels something weird, a funny noise coming from above.

Random objects started to fall from the sky. It was literaly raining objects!!!
The girl who lives outside the box must be proud of her imagination, she just found a new way to kill us!!! I don't mind if she make kritures fall into our box, but heavy objects?!


We imediately started to run, and found a place to hide.

As we were trying to avoid a painful death, we saw this weird new kriture named Formit passing by. He was carrying stuff on his back to some place.

             We gained some courage, and called him.

"Psst, green stuff? Can you please help us? What is going on??"








"Sure dude! Don't be afraid, I can help you. But first, I need to get to a friend, we are building something and he's waiting for me!"

We were afraid, because he seems to have more legs than usual, and antennas, maybe it could read our brains, or something. So I asked the others if we could trust him for a while, after all he is also one of us, and I should keep an eye on everything and everyone new around here.

He seemed too nice in the first place, and answered promptly as if he knew something we didn't!
So we decided to follow him, but always keeping an eye on him...









 
And so we did. We found out that he's perfect 
for bringing junk with us in our journey! He seems to be very strong and confident. Well, a little too much confident. So, just in case, I'm always checking if anything weird happens with him around.

He brought some really big leaves that we have never seen before, and told us to get wrapped inside them.
At first I was like "no way" but he insisted, and said that it would protect us from cold, bugs and some stuff that could fall again from the sky.












I tottaly knew that all he wanted was to eat us up, I mean really? "Wrap yourself up in these leaves, and go to sleep?" He must think I dont know what a Mc Donald's wrapper is.





Tonight we are sleeping all together, and I will hit him with my mighty scepter as soon as he starts to get funny with us. Because I can, and oh I WILL kick ass.
He got this weird fancy hut to sleep, he must think he's so smart or something. I'll punch him in the face! Anyhow, instead of using the leaf, Dodo just started to eat it. God, I need some new friends...

First Encounter

Our journey is getting very long and we are very tired, but we have already found Glanell, he has been providing us some food. He can find some delicious berries since he really loves sweet stuff.

We have been camping here and there, trying to bring everything we can with us, but it's getting heavy.

When Furzz was jumping around from gap to gap, he found a strange purple creature between the cracks. He tried to see what was that without being cought but this creature spotted him and started to scream! And we were like "AAAAA" , but then we were like "eeeeeeeew" because he was eating dirt! What a nasty thing to eat! He was disgusting!

For a moment we stared at each other and tried to stay calm. Hummo was his name, he's a pacific kriture, a little too disgusting for some of us, but he told us he could make the air clearer by eating soil. So, I don't care if he eats dirt, we need eco friendly mates in our crew!
