Nice! I agree the finish looks ivory. How did you do that? Is it a finish or the type of wood?

It is sanded basswood, and sanded and sanded lol..........and I hate sanding!! painted it with sanding sealer and sanded somemore...then painted with white acrylic and painted and painted...geez, didn't want to cover! "we don need no more stinkin polar bears!"

No rocks, big brother, only compliments! Your bear looks great, actually looks like it would feel cool to the touch, nice smooth finish, definitely ivory looking! Thanks for sharing him with us! Deborah

Neat! Thanks for the info. I did a base in black kind of like that one time, sanding endlessly, painting sanding, sealing, sanding. You're right, that sanding can get old. Makes a nice looking finish though.
