Based on Francesco’s excellent version of Mr. Alaya’s “Hardboild Polar Bear” I showed it to Yokoyama Sensei for his input. A few slashes with the stylus and I had some ideas ready for some customization. The basic design is very cool but we wanted to put a little more visual weight and curvature to the front and give it a little more direction but keep as much of the interest from the original.

This is the “dry version” before adding it to groundwork.

Next up, the groundwork for the 2 Polar Bears!
