ya its going good! Ill try to post some more pics in a bit... havent got a ton of pics of my own as the instructors are taking them that they will give us on a disc at the end. I will downsize some and post them up! Spending too much time on the river after class to mess with the pics too much  :chuckle:

Lifesize bear im working on. I almost had a heart attack when some of his hair started falling out but its under control now  :chuckle: This form had to be modified quite a bit to fit... i think i cut like 3 inches of length out and like all the legs were WAY to big. Im glad i got to learn how to make it work though.
