its really coming together! i'm really happy how nifty it looks. This one in particular looks too much like a wild dog. My friend took a look for me and suggested I add the hump and make the shoulders a big broader. So i'll be incorporating some more "padding" in those areas to give it more of a hyena shape.

but, the good news is that if i wanted to make wild dogs, I already got a pattern that works! :D I might make a head for it so I can offer variety
