More practice! Got a big set of thread colors (80) so I can actually make things more accurate, though learning what colors work better with others is also a learning curve. Thin lines definitely need darker colors to compensate. First vaporeon was done in normal colors, but I definitely should have gone with darker blues for the linework. Did better on the shiny variant but I don't like how the eye shapes turned out, and the frill lines still needed to be darker I think!

Once I get a better handle on this I'll be opening for commissions for embroidered badges/fursuit bandannas/stuff
