Dale Power leads you step-by-step through the process of carving a robust and realistic polar bear. Complete, concise instruction and detailed color photographs make the carving of this bear an enjoyable task for the novice and advanced carver alike. Dale approaches the carving with a combination of hand and power tools, giving good advice in both techniques. Once carved, Dale illustrates techniques to burn and paint the details that give your bear a very natural look. Four original patterns for polar bears, grizzlies and brown bears are included as well. The gallery photographs provide detailed and instructive perspective on these bears from different regions of the world. The character and personality of each bear comes through in these photos.
I got the book to gain access to some of the features to the polar bear and grizzly. More on the polar bear than the grizzly but still helpful to me and one of my carving projects.
