i am in the middle of a miniature bear and i was wondering how you shape the face so it looks more like a bears face.
i am making one from a pattern at the moment but im planing on designing my own next.
thanks.
Chris.

When I shape mine I stitch and pull where the eyes are to go.

Once the eyes are in place I then needle-sculpture between the eyes with tiny stitches..hope that helps..

I agree with Denise. Needle sculpt like you do with a bigger bear. Also if you mini has a little pile to it, trimming it in key places ie: the mouth and eye area to give it definition.
