After around 3 days and burning out my dehumidifier the bears dry :)
Onto sewing the ears; instead of cutting the ears at all to fit the size I wanted I sort of folded the bottom edge of the ear inside to shorten it
Pinned on the right and untouched on the left
I noticed that Tiger(the bear) has curved ears, the front going forward and not just straight across like the bear I have so I put some stitches in to curve the ears
Had a little difficulty with the left ear, the fabric seems a little thicker or maybe I folded it a little different
Ordered the apoxie sculpt for the nose and an assorted pack of safety eyes-- will update again once those arrive
In the meantime I made a heart for the bear, stuffed with the original stuffing
That's all for now
Any suggestions would be appreciated and thank you all for the positive reception on the first update :)
bought the cheapest close looking 1950s bear I could find, has a couple holes and missing the eyes (ideal for my purposes) its a bit smaller than I wanted but I'm not picky
Find back stitch and remove the stuffing
There's enough stuffing in this darn thing for 3 bears (i found it interesting that the head and torso had mainly lighter stuffing and the arms and legs brown stuffing)
Wash the bear for good measure (water was yellow)
Patiently wait for bear to dry-- set in front of dehumidifier to help speed up
once he's dry ill be shortening the ears and searching for an eye replacement
I'm still trying to think of how to reshape the nose/muzzle because I first thought maybe apoxie sculpt, but the nose is too squishy for that to not just fall off unless I can harden the nose. (maybe pouring resin or something similar into the back) Perhaps silicone?
NOTE: In this series, "closing shots" means "the cleanest full shot right before the fade to black effect happens," OR "the cleanest full shot right before the freeze frame." It's a pain in the ass to try to find it frame by frame... backwards. Why did I decide to do this?!?!?!

I just know the 8063rd gossips about the 4077th. Dr Yamato returns like "wow do you know that Hawkeye guy? What a freak!" and everyone who was there during the Hawkeye Margaret break-up speed run is like "yeah"
Alan Alda directed “Dear Mildred.” He told Richard Lee Sung, who played Cho Man Chin, to forget using an Asian accent, to simply be a well-educated businessman lost in the war. It was the first time that Sung had been directed to not use such an accent and it made an enormous impression on him on how caring Alda was.
