Hi everyone, This is my first post on this cool site. I am currently make a small game for android phone taking place on an iceberg. Here is one of the character: a polar bear.  All your comments/tips/etc on how to improve it are welcome. Regards, Thom |

It is looking good, but I think it resembles a dog rather than a bear. I believe it could use: 1) Rounder face. Their mouth and snout come almost straight off of the face, not such a sharp triangle. I think this may be the most import to define its identity 2) Taller back. Polar bears tend to walk with their back curved; head at about ribs level. Otherwise, it is looking great. :) Welcome to PJ |

Hi, thanks for your feedbacks. Indeed, my bear looks like a dog (but much less than the first versions ;-) ) It might be good also to give it a more yellowish color. I hope to have some time to work on the pic this week. Here is the first version of the other character of the game:  |
