Teddy Talk: Creating, Collecting, Connecting

I LOVE THE BIG PUMPKINS and the critters

Aww poor Cooper. Give him big hugs when he gets home, he willl appreciate it.

well if the lady is very understanding I would explain to her that you can not make the claim until the 31st, see if she is willing to wait until then... refund after a claim has been settled.
The last thing you want to do is refund the money and the package show up and then you cannot make a claim or get the money back

what a beautiful tiger.

CONGRATS 

Good luck, it looks great.

I wish we had a Thanks Giving type of event. I would be thankful for Turkey. 
Christmas here is more about ham then Turkey, which is a shame.

Save me some turkey please he he

I'm glad you all like him,
I'll make some more and hopefully improved versions. Thank you for all your kind replies but don't feel bad about pointing out any bad qualities.
I can only go up.

WOW how would there been long mole fur made? I have this image of a mole farm in my head, being shorn ever day lol.  :crackup:

Poor Moles

I'm sure there is someone out there that belives the stories though and is out there some where trying to catch a mole to make a teddy out of.

I wonder how the writer did not question it... Common sense. I could understand people saying wool and all that but Mole?

what a beautiful little boy. 

  OMG I love it. I want one he he 

Hello

I have finished a pattern made 100% by me, I'm hoping you all like but I would appreciate some criticism(good and bad), he is only a prototype at the moment, all future ones will vary slightly until he is perfected.
As I am only starting out anything and everything is welcome so please let me know. 

He is approx 8inches, with white mohair and brown glass eyes. I have done some facial needle sculpting and colouring, not my best work I must admit but I am still experimenting with techniques and supplies. I have only sewn him together, but he will be jointed in the future. His nose is sewn but I think I would prefer a sculpted nose and will try that on my next one.

My partner thinks he looks a little like an Ewok. he he

Thank you all

what a beautiful addition. He looks like he will be able to entertain the rest of your bears while you are out of the house

Too true lol. Maybe I should invest and try it out. I don't think my boyfriend or my friends will mind being guinea pigs *mwaaa ha ha ha* (that was my evil laugh)

Thank you all. I think I will invest in getting a good one becuase I would also like to do some air brushing projects. I like anything and everything creative. I would tattoo if I thought I was good enough lol. 

I think a compressor might be the best option. I don't even know where I could get some compressed air anyway lol.

I have noticed that the copic markers leave a icky residue on the fur aswell and I hope that other paints don't do that.

With the Paasche is dilutted accrylics best?

what a beautiful boy.  :clap:

Hello

I'm thinking about buying an airbrush but i'm not too sure if I should buy a proper air brush kir, with compressor or buying the copic attachment?

The copic attachment do the pens last long or will I always be replacing them?

I'm not too worried about costs at this stage but I would find it a real inconvenience if I was  forever having to buy new markers or new compressor cans.

Cheers

That is really horrid Karon. I hope he misses those bears!!!
Some people are just so insensitive and careless.

I have uploaded some pictures of Trumpet in the showcase with the permission of Jenny Lee from Jenny Loves Benny.

This is another design by Jenny Loves Benny that I made for my cousins Birthday.
She is made of pink sparse mohair and has a pretty little hat to match.

Hello I wanted to show everyone the finished product of the trumpet designed by Jenny loves Benny (JLB) before my brothers dog got a hold of poor Trumpet. :(

He was made of green sparse mohair. he has a green felt hat and scarf. Hopefully the new one will look just as good.

Can I cash in and get $10 worth of hugs? 

He is wonderful, hope he sells soon.

I really appreciate all your kindness. You have all made me feel alot better, someone else that understands its not just a teddy.

He seems to be ready for halloween  so gorgeous.
