Will send my feedback and proper photos tomorrow, but I really wanted to make another one with sinker eyes so here it is!
Beautiful pattern with wonderful instructions and photographs. As a pattern designer, it's aspirational to have such a straightforward and well thought out design; as a maker, it's a delight- works up quickly and results in an adorable plush!

Not me in the parking lot decompression crocheting the tusk for this little guy after some rather hectic driving.
Sans tusk
What a cute little friend! Just need to do the fins and tusk
Going smoothly so far! Using 5.5mm hook with double stranded bulky yarn (big twist baby bear).
