#now let's see if I can make the other one symmetrical 😅

x1 ear for 3.0!!

This method definitely gave the ears some nice depth (a tad hard to see in the picture but looks great irl), which is fantastic because the primary gripe I've had with my ears on past heads is they always look too shallow, almost flat, from the front (as you can see on 2.5 there), even if they're not from the side. I was a little worried that the front border would be too thick when I first started adding the fur, but once I had everything glued down tight and gave it another quick shaving pass, I think it turned out pretty alright!

I'm also a lot less worried about the head being too small for the body at this point. Between the big eyes and big ears, it looks just about the same overall size as 2.5 now, just with different proportions. Adding the hair poof and cheek tufts should help even more. It still might be a little smaller than ideal, but I no longer think it's gonna be outlandishly disproportionate or anything. So yay! Of course, we won't know for sure until it's done and ready to wear, so...we'll see 😅

Approximately one week remains on the clock. sivakoooooooo
