So as some of you may know from my recent posts I'm working on a Boston Terrier suit in a toony style. This is the progress I've made so far.

Overall? I'm pretty happy with what I have going. I still need to glue stuff down and blend my shapes together a little better. I'm going to have a pretty busy weekend and as much as I'd love to work on it -- this will force me to let it sit a couple of days --- so I thought it'd be good to have other people look at it as well and get some feedback if I could!
I feel like I'm getting closer to the right "look" however I'd be thrilled to make it look even more like a Boston Terrier -- and make any general improvements possible. If anyone would be kind enough to offer critique/redlines (or let me know I'm headed in the right direction) would be awesome!
Thanks! :)
Also -- if making a breed of animal with thinner ears (like a boston terrier) what would be a good insert material? I feel even half inch foam will be too thick. Maybe foamies? Or plastic mesh? I was considering plastic mesh with like this "fancy stiff felt" I found at Michael's over it for additional support. I'd like something that will stand up but be able to bounce back from a little squishing if need be.
