Painting my teddy bear clock

This weekend I painted my teddy clock. It was quite messy and hard but enjoyable. This was because some of the hairs from the paintbrush I was using came out and stuck to the paint and it was hard to paint smoothly without having brush marks which you could see through. I first painted the nose of my teddy black as that was my highest layer and it was the easiest to do. I then painted the ears pink and mouth red. When I was painting the ears pink it was quite hard as when I tried to mix the red with white it wouldn't mix properly so there were little chunks of white in the paint. I then made a small black dot in the eyes and once that had dried I painted the eyes brown. I painted the feet brown as well. I left that to dry overnight. The next day I painted the rest of my teddy a honey-gold making the paint thin. I then painted it again so it had more than 1 layer of paint. I think my clock looks really good and I can't wait to put in the clock mechanism and the ticking hands.
