I've made so many Otis bears over the years, as well as other favourites from the Explore.org bear cams, so it was an interesting challenge when I was asked if I could make a different bear. This is bear 634 Popeye, in real life a huge boar with a large shoulder hump and piercing eyes. Not so easy to achieve in fabric and plastic!
However, considering this was an experiment and the first time I have made him, I am very pleased with how he has turned out. Now to find out of the recipient is as happy as I am!
