My First Bear

I've been wanting to make artist bears for a while now. well, yesterday I was called off from work so I spent 6 hours making my first bear! His name is Branson. He's certainly not a complicated bear, but he's stinking cute and I'm quite proud of how he turned out (especially since he is my first ever bear and I'm completely self-taught!).

He is five way cotter pin jointed, and is 6 inches tall sitting (alas he cannot stand by himself). He's made out of faux fur.

On a side note, you all know I'm on the Etsy Owls Street Team. Well, out team is having a huge BLACK FRIDAY AND CYBER MONDAY SALE!!!!
