HughiamGetting ready to go out the door
Here's a pic of a bear we just finished out for a client. The bear was 585lbs and the form was altered not only to fit, but also to change the pose.

Every morning the Zebra wakes up knowing it must outrun the fastest Lion if it wants to stay alive. Every morning the Lion wakes up knowing it must outrun the slowest Zebra or it will starve. It makes no difference if you are a Zebra or a Lion; when the Sun comes up in Africa, you must wake up running......

Mary Hilliard-KruegerHugh,
That bruin is a HOG! Where was he taken?
Great job on your form alteration, nice pose! I am sure that was no easy undertaking.
Kind regards,

HughiamThnaks!
It was northern Wisconsin and was 585lbs. Tons of alternations. Started with a lifesize slight left turn. Ended up with about 10 different pieces of bear parts and then pasting them back together.
