Please say hi to my latest semi-realistic panda, Petey. He is 16" tall with bent legs and arms with my usual realistic arms and legs with black leather paw pads. He is made from Schulte Alpaca and stuffed with polyfil and plastic beads. His eyes are black glass and his nose is sculpted from epoxy resin.
Oh my gosh Sue, what a cute face!!! I love the way you have his face sculpted and his fur trimmed to give him that smile. So Adorable. Do you have him posted somewhere with more pictures?

Found him on your website. You have done a great job on his body shape, they have that fat neck goes into the body shape. Wonderful
One more thing; I really like your website, the soft colors you have used, and the way you have it laid out, it is understated and elegant. When you are ready with your links page, I would love to swap links with you.
Hi Joanne
Many thanks for your great comments. Re: the website: I've only recently revamped the colours, fonts etc. It needs loads of work and updating. The problem is that I'd rather spend my time designing and making new bears. You will be the first link I add and I would love it if you would do the same. I also really need to learn to take decent photos... If only there were enough hours in the day...
A wonderful Panda, and I agree the smile is great! Hugs, Susan.
What a sweet little panda!!
He's beautiful, really soulful looking, lovely!! x
Awwwww! He is so cute! I love this expression on his face
Hes gorgeous Sue & I agree your website has a warm welcoming feel I know what you mean I would rather be creating than doing my website too xxx
outstanding, i adore your bears, such personality Hugs Lynne xx
Thank you so much for all your kind comments. My significant other told me my prototype panda, Pandy, looked like ET, but that he feels Petey is more panda-like. Bear making is certainly a journey...
Hugs

Petey has such a sweet face! I agree with you... bear making is a journey - we get better with each step!
Thanks Melisa. I hope you are right about getting better with each bear. I just hope I don't run out of ideas and inspiration (or die of old age)before I become as good as I want to be!
He is simply adorable!
