Tota Yeti

Cartoonist and illustrator Allesandro Tota has a pink yeti character in his comic.





All the character ever says is "gnü".

This is Italian, yes? Anyone know if "gnü" means anything? Or is it just a cute thing for this Ablobinable Snowman to say?

Not Yeti Friday - Bryan's beautifully-strange creatures

UK artist Jennifer Bryan of Creaturekebab is a self-professed Monster Maker.

Her monsters are pretty cool. They have a kind of Asian/Native American vibe to 'em.

Here's a few to give you an idea:



These plushes she creates known as "Mischiefs" look the most yeti-ish of what she makes:



To see more of her creations, visit her deviantart portfolio and her flickr page.

Yeti Wedding

Artist Jeff McMillan sent me these photos from his wedding, and I think the awesomeness speaks for itself:








It looks like the guests tipped the yeti, and by the end of the night, he made out like a bandit.

McMillan built the 9 foot yeti himself for the nuptial occasion.

He explained that the yeti appears in a couple of his paintings. Here are little snips from two different ones...

Yeti Playground

Lemon Cadet (whose Yeti Loves Seamonster was previously blogged about and who previously alerted me to the Frosted Friends Collection) directed me to this site with the image below and posed the following question:

Wouldn't this make a lovely yeti playground?



T'would.

Scallywog Yeti

Sorry I've been as elusive as the yeti. I have a new job that requires me to travel and it makes it harder at times to share all the yeti love that's out there.

From Plastic and Plush blog:

"The Scallywogs' studio is a collaboration between two best friends that fell in love and married some twenty years ago. All started when David's love of plushies and Susan's many years of sewing experience came together to create something fun for their four children. David is the inspiration behind the character design and Susan brings the characters to life. These handcrafted adventurous little creations soon took on a like of their own demanding to be set free upon the rest of the world."

All of the Scallywogs are great. But one of them is of note: a yeti(!) named Betti:



From the site:

"Betti loves catching snowflakes with her tongue, but doesn't like running on carpets much, makes her hair stand straight out."

May Yeti

These are some examples of yeti that artist Mark May has made. He builds monsters, robots, and aliens from found objects.



These are seriously great. If I had to pick, I'd choose the yeti up there at the top of the heap.

Enraged Yeti

This is the "Enraged Yeti" card from the Planetstorm card game.
