Well, I hope this is ok as I'm not going to be selling Malibu online: he's going straight to an artshop in my home town to be slavishly admired :)

"Malibu dreams of golden sands and rock pools, sunshine and silly drinks with little umbrellas in them. Will he ever achieve his dreams?"

...I really hope so! I'm considering not selling my avatar bear and Malibu's 'pattern twin', Pina Colada, as I've become pretty attached to him whilst I've been improving him... I can't keep them all though! He's another 'weasel bear', as my friends are calling them...

two shades of short sparse mohair
Ultrasuede pads
plastic brown eyes
steel ball and polyester filling
cotter pin joints

He's pictured with my new fish, Carrot, Jasper and Harold, who came to be with me after my beautiful Moor, Bogglet, passed away about a month ago.... it was so sad....

Any suggestions?

Thank you Ilze and Amelia :)

I was just looking for general sduggestions on improvements etc XD His arms seemed a little low for me, but I'm not sure on the best placement for him, as he is quite a slochy bear anyway!

Yep, perhaps you could move the arms up a bit.....what about using glass eyes opposed to plastic....that's just a thought      But he is still lovely!!

Yeah, they are a little slouchy... It's so hard to judge!

I had to use plastic eyes because i ran out of glass ones XD I have a few glass blacks now, but I quite like the pupiled look for these guys...
