Great choice of animal. Definately think you have managed to capture some of its character. I especially like his stubby feet.

still playing, and learning about the fur.
is it posibel to apply two kinds of fur? Because the anteater has this black (kind of jacket, see black fur in refence pic)
and i gues the ugly lines in the fur are were the uv map splits.right?
