Nice one I like how you handled the hair and the finished face is cute. How will you finish it?

[nicoleplum]

Thanks...well the project was already turned in, so that is it finished for now. We started on a new project, so i haven't had time to go back and refine the sea otter. But if i hade the time, i would clean up the ears and fix a couple of symmetry issues.
