Notes:
– I always do my crochet works using continuous rounds;
– Everytime I will do a crochet work, the first thing I do is take a look in the entirely pattern before start doing it, so, I can have an idea of how the pattern works. Well, I recommend you to do the same;
– For sewing the pieces together you will use the tapestry needle;
– To make the eyes you will use the felt and the fabric paint;
– To make the fire in his tail you will use yarn and a hair-brush;

Assembly:
1. The first step is sewing the head to the body. Although, first we have to cut some wire to insert in Charizard’s body, which will give his neck some support:
I. Cut some wire in the size of twice his full body (if the head was already sewn to his body);
II. Then, bend the wire, which should be at the same size of his full body (if the head was already sewn to his body);
III. Bend the tips of the wire and wrap them with adhesive tape:
IV. Now, insert it inside his body already stuffed with fiberfill;
V. Finally, stick the end of the wire in his head end sew it to his body.
(The step below has a photo tutorial that it is similar and will help you in this first step too)
2. In the second step we are going to sew the tail to the body. First, stuff the tail and then you are going to put some wire in his tail, which will make it poseable:
I. Cut some wire and bend it in the same size as his tail:
II. Bend the tips:
III. Wrap the tips with adhesive tape:
IV. Put the wire in his tail:
V. Sew the tail to his body and sew the horns of his tail to it.
3. In the third step it is time to sew his arms to the body.
I. Before that, stuff the arms and then sew them to the body. After that cut some wire and insert it in his arms. Insert from one arm to another as shown in the photo bellow. Cut the extra wire, bend the tips and hide them.
II. Then sew the fingers to each arm.
III. At the end sew the little wings to the arms.
4. In the fourth step you are going to sew his wings:
I. Pick up one orange wing and one teal wing and sew the bottom of them together with a 0.25mm nylon.
II. Use a thicker wire into the wings. I used a number 14 galvanized wire. Cut some wire in the shape bellow, which is the wing’s shape. Moreover, it is necessary to leave a long wire coming out of the extremity which will be sewn to the body (take a look in the photos bellow). This long wire it will works as a support for the wing and it needs to be long, because it is going to penetrate his body and reach his legs (Soon, I will explain this better):
III. Now position the wire between the two sides of the wings and make a line of sc joining the two sides with the wire between them:
IV. Sew the wing’s horn to the wing;
V. Wrap the tip of the wire with orange yarn. Use some glue to fix the yarn into it:
VI. When you finish, it should look like this:
VI. After that, it is time to put the two wings in the body. First, stick the long double wire near his neck in the middle of his back until it reaches his legs in the same way as the photos bellow. This is necessary to give support to his wings.
V. Then, sew the wings to his body.
5. Sew the underbelly to the body and tail;
6. Sew the legs to the body;
7. Sew the feet to the legs;
8. Sew the toes;
9. Sew his cream jaw to the head. However, don’t sew his “cheeks” to the head. Just sew until the end of the his snout.
10. Before sewing his cheeks we will sew the snout to the head in the same places as shown in the photos bellow:
I. These photos are showing the places where the snout should be sewn.
