Paddington's Progress



I finished Paddington! I've finished the bear himself, that is. He still needs his coat and hat, and I have plans for more items from the stories to put into his suitcase (Scrapbook, jar of marmalade, picture of Aunt Lucy, centavos, etc.). I found his suitcase at Michael's.It might be a little big for him to carry, but I wanted to display him sitting on it most of the time. So far,I have made him a scrapbook, but it doesn't have anything in it yet. The Paddington Bears will be sort of an ongoing project for Brendan and me, but I have to set it aside for now, as I've got lots of bear orders to work on (and dolls too)! Yay!

Here is a picture of him before I used my airbrush. It shows the size comparison to my next largest bear, Figaro.

Wow!!! I've been following along quietly in the shadows...HA!! Paddington is just adorable Tami. Like Laura I can't wait to see him all dressed up in his finery. You just do such an amazing job putting your ideas into real life. I so admire your talents...can I come play in your studio for a day or so? :o)

Hugs,

He's positively gorgeous, Tami. I'm slack jawed. You've outdone yourself on this guy. Perfect!
