ReplyDeleteThe teddy bear looks fuzzy. Did you do something special to give it that appearance?
ReplyDeleteThanks guys! Tom, I used the same technique on the bear and the fur trim on the coat. I use a small #11 u gouge to take little divots out from a lot of different angles and then I use a 3m Scotchbrite bristle sander to knock off all the edges, until it has a real "soft" appearance. I keep at it until it looks fuzzy or like sheep skin or wool. You can see the same effect on the girl's hair above.
ReplyDeleteGreat job!
