Well sir, you did a real fine job on your little bear on the log, I really don't recall seeing a bear that color but that's secondary, he looks very realistic given his present situation, I think you did very well.

Nice scene you set up there Feb. Your in the "bear carving" mode now I see. You should put a fish in there somewhere's with all the work you put into putting water in your scene.

Patrick, Iwas going to put another bear on the ground with a fish but changed my mind.

Tucker 1931, I can't tell colors the bear is a thinned out black a friend helped with the colors of the ground and water. Thanks for looking.
