  • Spring has sprung here in Australia! Isn’t it just glorious when the flowers start blooming and the days start getting warmer.

  • Miwak wanted to show off his 2 new vests. Both vests are completely reversible to allow for 4 different style! (doll & vest pattern by @homemadehorrors)

  • Miwak’s bodysuit has arrived! Great job by EasternDragonStudios, the tail port is perfect! Just have to do some tweaks on the tacked in tail zip to ensure a good fit with the tail, but that’s a school holiday job. Can’t wait to finish Miwak up & take them out on the town!

  • I’m determined to actually finish this costume piece! It’s now officially in the ugly stage after getting a super thin layer of foam clay to join all the main forms together. Once dry all the lumps will be sanded smooth.

  • Throwback! Miwaks’ bonetail weighs in at 2kg but thanks to the lumbar belt feels relatively light and has a lovely bounce.

  • Thread sculpted feet and paws for the truffle bear. This took literal hours and thread pulling hurt my hands, but the end result is so satisfying. These still need colour shading before being attached to the body (& I’m terrified of doing it! What if I stuff them up?!).

  • Stuffed all the parts, ready for detailing. Also made the weight bag for the body, ready to be inserted when the limbs/head are installed.

  • More work on the large truffle teddy. I’ve basted then machine stitched everything, clipped the curves, and inserted the joints.

  • 48 pieces of a faux mohair/real mohair truffle themed personal teddy bear. This all took about 5 solid hours to mark, cut, and prep.

  • Meet ‘Otto’, a 14” bear made using Furaddiction’s lyric pattern. His fur has guard hairs and he features brown glass eyes and suede paw pads shaded with derwent inktense blocks & pencils. He wears a quadruple bow with a natural seashell ornament. Not for sale. This bear already has a home.
