Hey makers, help me figure out a thing…

So I convinced Doodle to get rid of this old teddy bear I once made her because it didn’t come out great and she never really formed a connection with it. But I realized this was my chance to fix it up before sending it forward to destiny.

Here’s the original bear:

Okay at best and was never very cuddly. I didn’t choose the best fabrics back then. He has since been washed, brushed, and partially dismantled. His fure now looks like this:

Feels a bit coarse but no longer matted. I want to replace his snout with contrasting material but nothing too soft since he isn’t that soft, and nothing too bright because it wouldn’t suit him. I have these options in my faux suede fabric stash:

So it could just be his snout, but also fronts of ears and soles of feet, if I wanna put in the work. Then I think black plastic nose and lighter doll eyes to make his face visible.

I considered white or grey but I want to use what I already have on hand. Any thoughts on which fabric might make a nice snout? They’re all suitably understated. I fixed up his scarf but it was never that great and I may make him a brighter one.

I care. I care deeply. I care so much I may make plushies or the Orthoceras.

Orthoceras meal. If you even care...

I want to improve my art skills, but I feel as though I’m getting nowhere improvement wise. Only backtracking (┳Д┳)

So here at last is something I’ve been gradually working at since last summer. One of those “I wonder if I can pull it off” projects. The last curly witchy hat I made was heavy and bulky so now my sand witch will be sporting a “straw” hat courtesy of 3 Halloween placemats.

In @mitchleeuwe 's Animal Lessons, he talks about using the CSI method and applied this principle (among other animals) on owls. Because I thought this was some interesting knowledge and because I’m kinda fond of these birds, I decided to give it a try. WooHoo!

How I draw 2 different mushrooms, in 5 steps or less. The 5th step is adding the "spots" or "bumps".
