Latest addition to the Floozarium (Patreon)

Doodles postponed for a day because THIS is finally done and I've got to show it off.
I'm definitely slowing down. This one took more than a year to complete (but there were long stretches when I didn't work on her at all.) The past month I've been in fevered push-to-finish mode because the end was finally in sight.
Now, I'm not building these things because I particularly want or need another one. Each one embodies new design ideas, and the only way to see if they work is by making it and finding out. So what particular innovations are we seeing here?
She has much more lateral hip movement than any Yarn Floozy thus far. It's still not as much as I would have liked, but this is a serious breakthrough. Also I managed to get slightly more than 90 degrees knee movement without too terrible deformation. I'll take it! I built her feet specifically to fit in those shoes; kinda cool, but I don't think I would do it again because without the shoes the feet look a little weird. Also I think I'm done with the internal skeletons. I thought it would enable me to pose them - and with this one it's almost starting to deliver on that potential - but ultimately the skeleton is just a pain to deal with. It's a lot of extra work for very little reward. The boneless ones are more cuddly, and that is arguably the most valuable feature of a Yarn Floozy.
She is NOT intended to be a rendition of a certain pizzeria bear. She's my own curvy teddy-bear who happens to be dressed sorta like the famous pizza bear. Call it a cosplay if you wish.
