  • TEMPLATE: www.flickr.com/photos/83280654... uses a better foot design than I show in the video. If you want to make it even better you could add an oval-shaped base for the feet, in light brown or orange felt, but I didn't do this here because it wasn't covered in the tutorial. Enjoy! (added on 19/8/13)
    Ever wanted to make you own goomba plush? There was a popular suggestion that I should make a tutorial showing how to do it all - and here it is! I've given some measurements here, but if you want a different-sized goomba, you could multiply all the lengths by some number. (Be warned though that a goomba double this size will take much longer to make, and would take 8 times as much stuffing!)
    If you make a goomba from this tutorial, you could make a short video showing the finished product, and I'll accept it as a video response :)
    GETTING FELT: You can find felt in most arts and crafts stores.
    REQUESTS: If you have a request for a future plush tutorial, please leave a comment and I probably won't reply, but I WILL make a note of your request.
    A surprising number of people have written asking for me to send a goomba to them - needless to say, this video exists simply to give people the instructions to make their own goomba, and so I will not be giving away or selling any which I have made.

    Partly yes, but it's more because the name makes a goomba sound threatening - and no goomba stands a chance of being threatening!

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +5

    It's just me making this particular video, but for the plush videos I also have my sister helping. We usually put the camera on a stand. We will be making more videos - the mushroom tutorial should be ready this weekend and then there will be more in July. And the spelling 'color' is American - I'm British which is why I spell it 'colour' :)

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 11 lety +8

    No, they were prizes on a stall at a theme park, but I recommend searching eBay for similar ones.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 11 lety +8

    They're from a site called mfgg - there's a link to this site in the descriptions of all the plush videos.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +2

    They're from a site which is mentioned in the description of all my videos except these sewing tutorials. (I can't post links in comments).

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +6

    Yes, I'm going to make the mushroom tutorial! I don't know when it'll be ready (at least two weeks from now, probably more), but I'll be working on it whenever I have a spare moment.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +5

    Filming is under way for the next video, so it should be ready in about a week, hopefully! The mushroom tutorial will be out a few weeks after that.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +2

    Sure, I'm accepting video responses on any home-made Mario plushes, so feel free to post it if you'd like to.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 11 lety +2

    Just do exactly this but halve all the measurements. That'll give you one the size of my small one.

  • @FrostMonolith
    @FrostMonolith Před 10 lety +17

    7:02 "be generous with him after stuffing"
    Just like you :)

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    I know, I've made a note of it. I don't usually reply to requests because it would take a lot of time, but I haven't ignored you, don't worry :)

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +2

    @TheBlackoppsfan Early next month. We're hoping to make a plush video in early April, and then also the mushroom tutorial later in the month.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 11 lety +4

    Probably August, because I'm planning to release a plush adventure first.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +3

    I've filmed and I'm currently arranging the video clips, but I haven't recorded any audio yet. Exams are getting in the way now, so I'm not sure when I'll be finished. For me, making these tutorials takes a lot less time than making a plush video anyway!

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    @supermario10033 Press the (CC) button and you can translate the subtitles into any language - very useful!

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    Of course - if you wanted one a little bigger, just multiply all the lengths by a certain amount. This goomba would be about 13-14 cm in height, so to get 20cm you can multiply all the lengths by about 1.5. So the first head measurement would be 15cm not 10cm. Also, it'll need about 3 times more stuffing.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 11 lety +1

    I don't have templates for the goomba, mushroom or star, but I've given instructions on how to make the shapes yourself anyway. I'm thinking of compiling a mushroom template soon due to popular demand, and afterwards I might go on to the others.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +4

    I will be making the mushroom one at some point, and Toad is very similar.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 11 lety +1

    You're welcome - that's the reason why I make subtitles!

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +2

    Just so everyone knows: if you make a nice goomba from this tutorial, you could make a short video showing it (just a few seconds will do, enough to see the whole finished goomba) and I'll accept it as a video response so people can see what you made.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 11 lety +2

    I made the design myself using my big goomba to help with the template.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +2

    @SuperAwesomeLocoLPS Yes, I will - a lot of people have said they'd like to see it. I will be making it for early April. I know it's a couple of months away but I'm being realistic :)

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +2

    Keep at it!

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 11 lety +2

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +2

    @eejay30 I had an hour of film footage, plus about another hour or two of work I did off-camera, so it took maybe three hours in total. I can sew fairly quickly, so perhaps add another hour or two on if you haven't sewn much before and it that's just four or five hours, if you don't get distracted. It's not too long really. I'm not making them to sell; they're instructions so people can make one themselves.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 11 lety +1

    If you want a goomba then you'll be willing to spend the fabric for it! :) but if you're finding it difficult you could try my star tutorial- that's an easier one designed for beginners.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    Eventually, but Whacka will be done first (tomorrow) and Yoshi soon too, because I've been saying I'd do a Yoshi tutorial for a couple of months now.

  • @professorbrainstorminmemef4779

    I love your tutorials. I made a Bone Goomba and a Jack O' Goomba from your tutorials (for jack o goomba, I used your mushroom tutorial) and many more!

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    That's not a bad idea... I might try that one eventually!

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +3

    You have a lot of home-made plushes - really colourful too! I particularly like that goomba beneath Luigi, and the lumas. And that lakitu is really well-made for something so complicated! Did you use any instructions when you made it or did you do all of that yourself?

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    Not intentionally, it's just that I didn't have any light brown felt! And orange isn't too bad a colour choice.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    I could, but I wouldn't be able to make it for a while. I'd recommend searching on CZcams for e.g. "blanket stitch" or "ladder stitch" to see if there are any good tutorials. (I've had a quick search and I noticed that my blanket stitch seems to be done in a quicker way than other videos show, but with the same outcome). I might mention stitches in with the mushroom tutorial, but for now it'd be best to see if there are already some good guides out there.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 11 lety +1

    It's any size you like- you can resize it as you wish and print it off!

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    I'm making it right now, but it probably won't be ready for another couple of days. Perhaps Monday. We'll see!

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 11 lety +1

    My star tutorial isn't a bad place to start learning - I go through the basic stitches there :)

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 11 lety +1

    You should be able to find all the materials in an arts and crafts shop, but if you don't know any nearby you could search online through Google or Amazon.

    Goomzilla, I must say that I love your plush tutorials.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 11 lety +1

    If you want, but it can be difficult to fix those on and they probably won't look as good as felt would.

  • @huddlessss
    @huddlessss Před 8 lety +5

    If you use a red body instead of cream, change an expression, add a belt to the body, and boom! Gaijin Goombah!

  • @goomzilla

    That's not a bad idea; maybe I'll try that some time.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    Compared to a goomba, it would be very difficult to sew - not impossible, but I'd rather release some easier tutorials first. I don't plan to make a Yoshi any time soon, if ever.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 11 lety +1

    I didn't make it, but if you want one that size you could multiply all the measurements by about 1.5

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    @culinario0 I made it up. When I was making the small one, I just looked at my big goomba to see all the pieces it was made up of, then cut out some felt and it worked out fine. A bit of past experience in making stuffed toys also helped - for example, in sewing on one side and then turning it inside out. And what do you mean by the paper being "plushy"?

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    8 hours isn't bad really - you can do that in a day. How long did it take you to make this goomba? Plus I'd be interested to see that Lakitu you made - would you like to post a video response showing it?

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    @lobo1999x Any stuffing should be fine. I recommend softer stuffing if you have a choice, because the finished plush feels better that way.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    @goomba771 I haven't tried it before, so I don't really know. Sewing's not difficult anyway, so I'd recommend sewing if you have a choice.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    I'm considering making a Yoshi one, but that won't be for at least a couple of months if I do make one.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    @sonicmariokirbylink They are pretty similar - just the mushroom is a bit rounder. After all, goombas are mushrooms!

  • @amariokart
    @amariokart Před 12 lety

    I made a Goomba Plush using your directions and instead of felt, I used colored paper and instead of using thread, I used tape. I have to say it turned out pretty good.

  • @evagil2167

  • @goomzilla

    Yeah, just cut out some wings and sew them onto the back at around 5:32 in the video.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    @culinario0 It's not paper, it's felt. You can get it from any art shop.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety

    Mine was from a store called Hobbycraft, but it's UK only as far as I know. Most arts and crafts shops should sell it.

  • @goomzilla
    @goomzilla  Před 12 lety +1

    @Trainmasters237 It might be easiest to buy a Bowser Jr rather than make one, because he's a bit bigger than a goomba and has lots of little parts like the spikes on his shell - those would take forever to sew on by hand.
