As I said on Flickr, I love that bird! As for the cat, I have a few suggestions. First, I would try making the belly a little less fat. Either making it less rounded or even curve in a little. Also, when the body is elongated as in your design, they are usually walking. However, in V. 6, the cat does not appear to be doing so. Try shaping the legs differently. Or, you could make it running, or even better- pouncing
. Maybe play around with the pose of the tail. And try adding paws and see if it shortens the legs too much. Structurally, I think it is fine, it just needs different shaping. Oh, and I think it would be cool to fold it from triple tissue to create "stripes" with the bleeding effect. Although that's up to you
.
