Man am I proud of this one. It's my first prop ever. Ive done others, but i started this one first. It just took a while to work on. I was inspired by John Carpenters 'The Thing' and my baby boy. The story behind it is, is one night I was putting Cooper to bed and he let out this horrible scream that made me think of the Thing when it would mutate. So I imagined his teddy bear next to him changing shape. Hence my creature bursting out of the teddy bear. I worked hard on this guy, hope you guys enjoy it.
