Here's a pix from a cartoon cat that I've been modeling in the vertex modeler. First a head shot.

Overall, I'm quite pleased with this model. It's a bit "seamy" because the models themselves are half-models and instances are mirrored. (Can't wait for Gemini to be updated for C3! September is so far away...) The eyes will be changed, as they are they're okay. I'm trying to adapt Litst's eye tutorial to C3 -- using one vertex object with multiple meshes and shading domains...and at that point C3Beta crashes on me. Reported it. The 'tude of the feline carried over from my sketch to the model (didn't use backdrop for it) pretty well. Interested in feedback or comments.

Looks pretty good. Great work on the face, ears, head. You might consider bulking up the humeral joints and moving the shoulders back a little.

Thanks Mateo! did that. Nice improvement, due to your comments. Definately getting more cat-like.
