teddychallenge-copy.jpgHi all!

This fellow was created for the Classic Challenge that's going on right now.  I've always made mini bears, only ever a few larger.  This is my first traditional bear, Truman.  He was created to follow the guides for the challenge and even though I was dying to try some shading I'm glad he's without.  He's 12 inches sitting and has a lovely tilt to his head for posing.  Truman will live with my youngest sister, she picked out his Mohair..... and I like to keep the first or prototypes close by bear_wub

He is wonderful, Chrissi!!! Perfectly proportioned and such a great face! You definitely need to make some more larger bears!

He's a really lovely bear. He really looks like a boy as well. I hope mine turns out just as well. It is sooo hard to stay my fingers when it comes to embellishing bear_grin
