What a fantastic silhouette he has. And adorable too.

Love it!
-
-
I don't have any suggestions - I think he's brilliant and I love the way his ears glow
-
I love your fur rendering, I think he's looking great.
-
@Gary-Wilkinson could we see what he'd look like with his mouth under his nose, not smiling but nervous?
Weird request
-
@Gary-Wilkinson Really cool character. I love the ear, pointy, loud, full of energy.
I love the twist of having a tie in the contrast of portraying a rebellious character. I wonder if the rebellious feel would be better described if he is wearing the tie in slightly wrong way. -
@Gary-Wilkinson So cute! Best ears
-
Super cute design!! I really love the way you painted him. The texture and the brush work adds a lot to his personality.

I'm thinking to move the character more towards a regular fox than a fennec as I think the change in ear color will give it a bit more color variety. Also I made the tie a bit longer and the head slightly bigger, but im on the fence about the tie.
What do you think?
Black or without?
Long or short tie? -
Love the glowing ears! I like the colour change on the ears and the bigger head but I think I prefer the shorter tie...
-
@Gary-Wilkinson I think longer tie works a little bit better as it emphasises the character's small size. You've done a really nice job of pushing the cute proportions, I really love everything about this character design !
-
I like the darker colours but prefer the shorter tie. It’s framed nicely in his belly. It all gets a bit busy where it ends when it is longer.

Speaking for all of us who had to wear a tie for school—like, a real tie, not a clip on one, ALL the cool (rebellious) kids wore their tie as short as they could get away with. Somewhere, wrapped around their bodies, like a fabric snake, the rest of the tie was hidden.
I was not a cool or rebellious kid. I was a rule follower. My tie was regulation length.
I LOVE this character.
-
Darker colour and shorter tie gets my vote. Maybe even shorter for the tie? I agree with @janette about the rebelliousness Looking really good!
-
I vote for darker ears and shorter tie as well. Wonderful character.
-
@Rachel-Horne @brettb_draws @lizardillo @ruth @demotlj Great feedback on the tie and the black areas. I think a mixture of both wins the day.
@Janette I say the same thing as an adult!
Well i'm not going to have it done for the contest, but it's been great practice nonetheless and i'll try finish off the other poses to add to my portfolio.
