Clarebear Jan 13, 2009

Here is my first effort for the year.  He is made out of an amazingly soft, tactile and great to work with synthetic.  He stands around 5 inches but fits perfectly in your hand.  I am a bit worried about the pile length but am re-creating him in a short pile synthetic as well as a mohair.  The photo isn't great and the clour not true but I have been busting to get him 'out there' as he is one of my first creations that I am totally happy with.  His eyes look really high on his face but he has a large snout and in real life that's not the impression you get.  I got a digital SLR last year and really need to learn how to use it - this was just taken with a 'point and shoot'.

Heeeey   I remember that first bear excitement    I'm so glad to see you've posted!!!  I've been waiting for piccies    He is cute!  I can't imagine him being so tiny, he looks like a big boy in the photo    will love to see him in shorter pile too.  Way to go in getting a SLR, have fun with it, you're definitely braver than me, SLR's have me baffled lol

I love him!     He looks very cuddly.  I've had an SLR camera for about 2 years now and still don't know how to use it properly!!  I really have tried to learn and have read a lot about it, bought a better lens etc...but I still tend to shoot most things in auto mode

Clare, he is such a cuddly fellow...

.when I use my digital camera I have the setting on Portrait, the focus on micro and generally try to take the piccies first thing in the morning..most times I am happy with the result.
Mind you I take about 20 piccies of the little bear in all sorts of positions...
