Grizzly in the Salmon stream

Almost there.
Some distortion develped in the body of the grizzly itself so I added a second layer of batting behind 'himself'. I'm hand stitching around the body of the bear to anchor the extra backing in place and to fill the 'wow'.

The fish is a study right now. He needs to look wet.
So far netting doesn't help and organza is too opaque. I painted a small piece of needled wool with a 'pearl' paint to see it adds the effect I want.
I may have to hand stitch over this small item with silver thread to get there.

But the 'bear' is essentially done.
