Of all the things I’ve made on my channel to date, this one has turned out the closest to what I had in my imagination when I first thought of the idea.

I’ve made many different projects for my channel, and most have turned out pretty ok; Some better than others. But the Chewbacca Domo had just the right amount of Chewbacca and the right amount of Domo for me. I even impressed myself, which is harder to do than you might think.

Enough about how good it is, and onto how I made it. I had a look around a real fabric store, and as soon as I saw the material, I knew immediately that it was the right one to use. From there I found a couple of packs of silver beads, and a ribbon for the sash. All totalled, it came to about $35 not including the cardboard, felt or assembly materials (thread, glue etc)

For those who want to see the entire process (sped up to run 5 mins long), check this video out:

Of all the things I’ve made on this channel so far, this is the only one that turned out the way I pictured it in my brain. Editing’s going to take awhile. I’ve got about 6 hours of footage to go through, and I want the video to turn out as well as the end product.I’ve got a couple thoughts in my head as to how I’m going to make it both watchable, and useful if you want to make your own. Look for a video near the end of the month, or early next month.

We got our first suggestion! After 12 videos, we finally had enough of a following to get someone to engage with us! Not only 1, but 2 actual suggestions! I’ve had many more since then (mostly involving stuff to make), but the validation involved with getting a complete stranger interested enough to want to see more was pretty darn cool.

Because I like bacon and because I like reddit, I decided to make a bacon narwhal. All in all, I think it turned out pretty ok. Not the best thing I’ve ever made, but it turned out pretty tasty.

At the beginning of the video it says “That’s PS Drinking Game! Take a drink every time I say Bacon”. I count 21 bacons. If you took a drink every time I said bacon, you should be drunk by now.

There’s 2 pretty obvious homages to some YouTubers in this video. The entire video is shot ala Hanna Heart from My Drunk Kitchen (not to mention the beer being drunk during the cooking) and at the very end, I use FPS Russia’s tagline “Have nice day”.

Only a few of my videos have allowed me to both make something, and then consume it later. Bacon bacon bacon was great for that too, but I didn’t get the chance to share that with friends the way I did with this.

As often happens, this video took a bit longer than I expected it to, couple of hours over 2 days, but the results were completely worth it. The vodka turned out fantastic. We mixed a half jar (about 3oz) of vodka and a bottle of sparkling water for a super delicious drink.

I would recommend all of the flavours, but I found the green and the purple were my personal favourites. You definitely want to stay away from making a “mixed” flavour. I tried putting all of the different flavours into a single jar, and it looked gross, and wasn’t particularly fine on the pallet.
