I took the pictures on two different days, and Gideon has to make do with low afternoon sun.

Riff climbed on Gideon’s shoulders (A thing my cat loves to do, especially when I am working, which effectively stops me from doing so).

Not quite happy with the result yet, but very happy with all the things I learned in the process of felting this little bugger. And that’s why I show the kitty anyway despite the flaws.

I was too impatient to wait for the smaller eyes I ordered and used some I already had. They are too large, which makes for a rather nose-heavy result. They are safety-eyes, and although it makes them easier to put in it means you can’t really poke into the head to change the form. Next time I will use smaller eyes. And next time I will use thinner wire for the armature and improve the overall anatomy.

But this kitty will fit nicely in my next diorama.
