The two bear models are coming along nicely. The front one is almost complete save for a few small details while the other still needs another hour or so of work. Peter will finish them off on Monday and then Becke will work her painting magic to bring them to life. The models measure about 18” tall and are one sixth scale of the full sized final piece. These maquettes are hand sculpted with a two part sculpting epoxy over a Precision Board armature. The full sized piece will be fibreglass reinforced concrete over a welded steel frame. Guests who wish to interact with this photo op will be able to go between the arms and get the ultimate bear hug selfie. The space will be large enough for a family of six or even more if they like each other. :)
