Re: 3d Anime Mouse Pads: How are they made?
As for those clever and sexy mousepads, I don't know exactly how they're made... but I did notice they do it for butt cheeks too.

1. The rubber base.
2. The shaped gel wrist rest.
3. The fabric surface (where the character is printed).
The gel is glued to the base and then the fabric is pressed on top and secured with some kind of adhesive.

If you are planning on making your own, I would recommend getting your gel shaped first, then gluing it to the base. Then you could spray aerosol upholstery adhesive all over the top surface and hand-spread your fabric across it, aligning the important bits first. Then it would just be a matter of smoothing wrinkles and trimming excess material from the edges.
Looking at my own gel pad, it seems like they used some kind of rigid gel adhesive layer around the edges where the fabric meets the rubber to clean up that edge. You would have to improvise that part if you made your own.

OK, first done is a printed cloth top.
It is a semi-stretchy fabric that takes inks well.
It is either printed on a inkjet printer (small batches) or an offset printer (large batches)
Then the cloth is adhered to a foam layer.
Then both are heat pressed into the lumpy form.
Then the gel is glued to that.
None of these items are sold at your local hobby shop.
