Nowadays, more and more people like to design their own unique image to produce various finished products, such as plush dolls, plastic toys, keychains, pillows, etc. No matter what kind of product, a good product must have a design soul. Designers design based on market research, market trends, and elements represented by a company or individual, in order to grasp the psychology of consumers, The design of plush toys is also a combination of doll cutting, cartoon art, and plastic art. The steps for designing plush toy dolls are basically divided into the following aspects:
Identify creativity and ideas
Based on one's initial thoughts on plush toys, draw a prototype and a rough outline, collect personalized styling samples based on this appearance, and make plans. Then, measure various factors from different perspectives based on various indicators to determine the final plan from various plans.
Design rendering
Draw the specific appearance characteristics of the plush toy from the front, back, and side. Only by doing so can students achieve the best teaching effect of enterprise design with our ideas.
Determine the size and proportion of the sample based on the design renderings
Determine the proportion of the artwork based on the design renderings, and determine the proportion of each part of the physical sample based on the sample size. The pattern of the toy should start from the overall design, starting from the large version, usually starting from the body, so it is easy to expand and modify other versions.
3D cutting diagram
This is the most effective and simplest method, mainly to turn the design rendering into a three-dimensional shape, and according to the determined proportion, turn the produced parts into a three-dimensional cross-section. We will crop and sew the formed lines to display them.
Material cutting diagram
The cutting of plush toys is similar to that of clothing, but the cutting of clothing is more regular, while the cutting of plush toys is ever-changing. Each set of cutting determines a three-dimensional animal shape, determines the quality of the design appearance, and is also the most important and complex design.
Trial production of design samples
By using the actual plush toys of the enterprise for material design, the cutting pieces can be repeatedly made and modified to achieve the closest design effect.
Determine cutting
After trying to achieve the best effect, we will determine and pull it down, including material, color, yarn direction, etc.
After these processes, it was not until the final determination of the cutting piece that the design came to an end. Every plush toy production enterprise must go through this complex and tedious process before a new product flows into the market, which is also a crucial process.
