Wanted to draw 10… ended up with just 2. Oh well, at least the second one shows some improvements!

I like the ribbon studies. And the bears are really cute. The brown bear is kinda lopsided but I think that gives him personality. Also great work on the fur texture.

@Christy - Hey thanks for the comments. Yeah I learned a lot from those ribbon studies. They were important for the next phase which was the bear. His lopsided look was intentional… but I didn’t fully figure that out. Was having too much fun rendering fur!

Day 3 - Growl Studies

#6

I like how you’re doing real bear studies to influence your teddy bear. That’s a creative idea.

Day 4 - “Chimney”

#8

Lovely teddy bear! Great fur texture you made. Amazing realistic.

#9

@POSE - Glad ya like it! I definitely prefer realism.

Day 5 - Winter (spirit)

#11

Day 6 - Blizzard

#12

Fantasy is also good, like your day 5 :slight_smile:
I believe that realism is good but we also need some fantasy. Ehehe

#13

Nice ribbons :slight_smile:
I liked the first bear better. Reminds me of my moms old stuffed bear :p. The second one is maybe a little more modern though.

Day 7 - Blizzard (continued)

#15

I absolutely love that you did a winter spirit! I thought about doing something similar, but I’m glad someone else had the idea and got to execute it :slight_smile: The blizzard image is definitely spooky to me. I would not like to be stuck in my car during one.

#16

@M.S. - hehe… I appreciate that!

Day 8 - Presents

#18

Ehehe! So what kind of presents are this?!.. is presents for the humans of alien technology and specimens to study :slight_smile:
Nice work

#19

Well the presents were mushrooms at first… but then I made them into aliens. Still basically the same thing. Ehehehee
