AlmostBearshello all!
i decided to try somthing differant yesterday and thought id show him to you
hes a minature mohair bear about 3 inches sitting and i thought the pattern turned out well....tho this actual bear leaves a lot to be desired :crackup: ive never tried to make somthing look old before and im not real keen on the job ive done...so im off to try again(boy are bears addictive - especially when they wont do as their told 
) ive used prisma pencils...well actually i only own 1 black one 
but i used it to shade and acidently pushed too hard so he ended up with one very black line on one side...so ofcourse i then had to put one on the other side, now he looks angry
Does anyone have any tips about aging mini bears?? cause i sure could use some
anyhoo, here he is...feel free to tell me exactly where ive gone wrong or what i could of done better 
thanks muchly and enjoy!

Cleathero CreationsDo you have a blender pen? That can help mask any errors you may do.
I have also tried disguising mistakes by using different colours to diffuse the colour.
But other then that he looks fine. So he is a cranky pants that just gives him personality. Love the head shape by the way.
Real Deal BearsWell, I think he is really cute, in fact I really love him. Though I see what you mean about the angry look, but overall he is wonderfull :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap:
Cat Gabriel CraftsI think he's great Natasha! I didn't notice he was a grumpy bum until you pointed out his angry lines :)
I don't have any pointers for you regarding aging bears, I've never done it myself but would interested to hear others suggestions.
Our Blue IguanaHe looks good to me.. still cute and i love your style to give him an aged look and the few thread on the ears and on the tummy, nice touches... hmmm maybe on my next bear i will do just that...
im just wondering, if u shade it and the bear gets dirty one day, won't the shading wear off? do you apply those copic pen directly to the bear? won't the colors appear too dark?
