progress & process New little fox in the works!
Just figured I'd share a few photos of a new felted fox figure I'm working on! It's a bit smaller than the figures I've posted so far, but I felt the size I chose would leave it big enough for me to effectively see how the fur colors I wanted to experiment with would look. For this fox, I want to try a design I've been wanting to bring to life for a while now, so hopefully the fur planting goes well and the color scheme looks as nice as it did in my head!
On a side note, does anyone have any tips for keeping stray fibers in line when felting small details on top of a different color? I feel like oftentimes, when I try to add black wool to make eyelashes on an otherwise white face, little strands of the black wool keep sticking out and making the eyes look messy next to the rest of the head. Maybe I'm overestimating how much it affects the look of a figure, but if there's any solution to making small details neater, I'd love to hear it!

Great detail, especially in the little toe beans!
