Hi there all! Just finished my second bear after some time waiting on the joints. He's far from perfect, and he's a little rough around the edges, but I feel he's got some cute personality. His name is Booker - the fur itself is faux, not mohair. The paws are suede. He's got hand-shading around his eyes and muzzle, and the paw-pads are hand-drawn. I have a third bear waiting to be jointed that I designed myself from scratch, and a fourth in the works. Jointing is hard! (I'm using the plastic safety joints though...)
Edit: He's about 9" high. He fits into my Boyd's bears clothes!
It sounds as though you definately have the bug
He is great and he does have bags of personality, as to jointing thats what hubbies are for :crackup: isn't it???
Booker looks great! I can't wait to see more of your bears.

Thank you very much to you both! I super appreciate the feedback and I'm very excited he's gotten a warm reception. I've definitely got the bug, Fen! Number two is coming soon...just need to joint him. (If I had a husband, I expect he'd come in handy for it, haha!)
