Zane is a little zombie bear, my first zombie bear.
Zane is approximately 8 " tall (measured standing), and is made from green mohair.
Zane is five way cotter-pin jointed, with a wobble-neck joint.
He is filled with heavy weight polyester fibre and has some steel shot in his tummy for a little extra weight.
Zane has hand-painted red glass eyes and a black embroidered nose and carefully needle-sculpted to give a little more definition to his muzzle.
Zane has been hand painted with red and has needle felted wounds to make him
Zane is one of a kind and currently available from my website.
Hope you like him.
LincolnshireHope you don't think I'm criticising as your bear is very well made but I just wondered , is the zombie theme something that is popular at the moment? I have seen quite a few bears and dolls on e bay that look like crash victims and I actually find them quite distressing to look at. It's probably just me and my old fashioned ideas as to what a bear should look like ( cuddly and cute) so hope you don't mind me asking. 
I don't mind you asking at all. I have had a look at the ones that you are talking about, and I don't like those either. I was going for the cute but dead sort of look (I hope it worked).
I'm not sure if they are popular at the moment, I didn't look into it, I just decided to make him.
My favourite festival is Samhain (Halloween) so I had to make at least one halloween themed bear.
Also, I have exhibited at GYTBE in Sheffield since it started, and there is one particular guy that asks me for a zombie bear every year.
Zane has already found a new home (he's been adopted by a friend), but I'm looking forward to finding out what the guy at the show thinks of him 
LincolnshirePleased to see he has been adopted and he is very cute but I would have wanted to sew him up and put bandages on his wounds if he'd have come to live with me. Im a bit daft I know.
Good luck with your future shows and I'm sure the guy who asks will love him, thanks too for your reply, I'm so pleased I didn't offend you by being so nosy.
