Looking for an bear model that stands upright

[maddoghoek100]

I am looking for bear model that stands upright to go with a model of Stephan Weber's Bull (Bull and Bear).

Quentin Trollip's bears are fantastic, has anything comparable been published.

For diagrammed bears in an explicitly upright or sitting position, I can only think of Seiji Nishikawa's stylised model, which was published in Origami Tanteidan 9th Convention.

Though that may be too simple for your requirements if it's to fit in with the style of Stefan Weber's Bull, and you wanted something like Quentin Trollip's excellent Grizzly Bear

I think these days most people would modify a bear that was diagrammed on all fours, like Stephen Weiss' from Origami Zoo et al. (I'd need the diagrams though)

Thanks for the great response. I may end up having to modify a Montroll bear, but Quentin's is so perfect I was hoping there might be something more similar that had been published. I suppose I can always keep my fingers crossed and hope he drops the CP on us in the future.

I haven't seen Quentin posting much, recently. Don't know if he's busy with family or with publishing.

In any case, it might be worthwhile to send him a personal email. He might tell you where he is planning to publish a Bear diagram.

Hi, yes we've been moving and had to change my email provider with it, so I havent really had much time or communication origami-wise.

The good news is that the bear is diagrammed and will appear in my upcoming book, which will hopefully be published in the next couple of months.
Greetings
Quentin

You can count me among the pre-orders as well. Thanks for the response

In that case, it might be time to set up a Book topic, like Nicholas Terry did, to answer all the obvious questions and do some book promotion.

But, don't make any promises about the release, because 2 months can turn into 6 mos in the publishing industry, even if you've approved the proofs.
