Description Someone mentioned I should take a picture of the head with both ears up and both ears back. Me, I'm lazy tonight, so I just mirrored each side. I can't decide between the two.

This buddies with this submission: [link]

the main description of my dilemma is on that page. The forehead markings are more like the one on the left. Thick, not thin.

Wait, did you make two heads for this? The facial shape is really different between them.

They're not poseable. I was just moving them around when they weren't sewn.

Yeah, I'd still go with ears back. It's cute and although it does make it look a little more aggressive, I think that's what I like about it. It's not the typical, happy, alert, fursuit face you see. And when wearing this mask you don't have to act all bouncy and happy to fit the character's expression. It gives you a whole new character to be. ^.^

Lol, mirrored. I think I still say back for this character. The markings just BEG to be shown off like that.

BUUUUUT yeah, as others have said it still makes him look more aggressive...but I don't think he really looks all that playful/friendly with them forward either. His face doesn't seem to scream out happy-go-lucky-friendly-guy, lol. Forward I think makes him just look more serious, but back seems to be more of an unsure look....that's how it seems to me, anyhow.

I like the ears back! It displays the awesome coloring on the backs! Also, he looks more majestic, not necessarily aggressive. Also, the forward ears make him look like a cat, especially because of the angle they are on the head.

Definitely back.

Works for me!

By the way,how erect can you make ears? For my ear set I either want them stuck out or standing at tall as possible. I'll figure it out one day...

Still no word on the bookmark thing...SIGH

Sharpe19 In reply to Draikairion [2010-04-05 21:37:54 +0000 UTC]

I can make them a erect or as floppy as needed.

Draikairion In reply to Sharpe19 [2010-04-06 02:47:30 +0000 UTC]

Cool! But how far up on the head can you make them stand (like a real, alert wolf's ears)? Or, would that look silly on a human head? I'm just curious

Sharpe19 In reply to Draikairion [2010-04-06 03:12:57 +0000 UTC]

I can either have them on an elastic strap or on a headband. Elastic will be more above yer own ears, same with the head band. I can place them anywhere on the head. (with some limits)

I love the ears pointing forward, as mentioned, when I see the ears back I imagine that he's agressive.

I'd vote back. Makes it look cute and coy.
Either way, nice work. ^^

Squishypops [2010-04-05 11:19:33 +0000 UTC]

Ears back definitely c:

It gives it more character, you can see the markings better, they have a nicer shape and I don't think it makes it look aggressive, if anything a little submissive or sad.

lamelobo [2010-04-05 06:09:45 +0000 UTC]

i like the image with the ears back..they are a bit more aggresive look, but the eyes, and face are just awesome, but i also like the ears forward...(but with the expression on this mask..i love the ears back.) that is my fav. thank you kindly.
this look awesome friend!

VenHybrid [2010-04-05 05:17:41 +0000 UTC]

I like the ears pointing forward. It makes the character look friendly and alert whereas the ears pulled back make him look more aggressive and may not be suitable for public areas where there are small children. If you have ears pointing forward, it makes it look happy and playful and children will want to interact with the character.

Or if it still boggles you, you can offer the option when it's for sale to the buyer to choose how they want the ears are positioned.
