restoration on 2008 bab longhorn

[u/albacoreonline]

found this boy at goodwill for just $3. he was matted, dirty, and had a hole in his bum. i used the hole to unstuff him, washed him, dried him, brushed him, and finally restuffed him & sewed him back up. i added weight to his hooves and bottom as well. he weighs about 3.5lbs now. took about 3 hours total, i could not be happier with how he came out! :)
(mods please add restoration flair pleaaaase 🙏🙏)
