Mike,Jonas Brothers has two sitting black bear forms.3-152357 4 1/2"x53"x38 1/2" and 3-152349 4 1/8"x54"x39".A little altering of one of these would be easier than starting with some other pose.

Thank you for the help. I did not have that catalog, but got on there website. I think the 3-152357 new form will work with some alterations. this will be a little more alterations then i have done before. So i will order the form and get the saw out and get to work. thanks again for the help!
Your welcome.Just take your time with the alterations.Try the skin on first to see if you need any size adjustments.When you move legs,mark the joints,cut and pivot on those points.It is a good idea to temporarily tack these pieces in place(I use 6" drywall type screws) and then try the skin again.Sometimes the fit changes when you move something,especially if you don't pivot a leg exactly on the joint.This way you can adjust if you need to and it won't be set in stone.For sure check the fit before adding any kind of reinforcing rods.It is a step that can save you time in the long run.Good luck with it.
