Animal Crossing: New Horizons Fan Makes Rug Based on Raymond

gamerant.com:

While there are certain personality archetypes that each Animal Crossing: New Horizons villager falls under, fans definitely have their favorites. Whether it's based on character design, personality quirks, or even their catchphrase, island villagers are often either welcomed with open arms or despised until they're booted off the player's island.

One of the most popular villagers to premiere with Animal Crossing: New Horizons is Raymond. The smug cat villager topped the list of newcomers shortly after New Horizons' release, and its popularity has remained high in the years since.

One fan of Raymond went so far as to painstakingly create a real-world rug based off the villager's appearance. Redditor abitofabibliophile shared an image of the rug, noting that it was made by the user's sister. Raymond's countenance is recreated perfectly, with his usual half-bored expression, heterochromatic eyes, glasses, and pale swirl of fur at the center of his forehead.

Unfortunately, abitofabibliophile hasn't shared any further information on the rug, so it's unknown how long this production took to create or what methods were used. It's a remarkable piece of artwork, though, and yet another example of creativity coming from the massive Animal Crossing fanbase. Players have worked hard to create amazing things both based on Animal Crossing or made within the game itself. The game's focus on building and customizing one's island while making friends with the locals seems to encourage players to create impressive fanart.

Of course, the Raymond rug is likely intended to be a decorative piece, rather than one used as an actual floor covering.
