The face needs to be more symmetrical. I suggest ALWAYS using a reference, in fact multiple references from different angles will really help you. It's even better if when you're carving the foam, you have a fresh set of eyes look at it, so they can let you know of imperfections. Same goes for your stripes. They look...tilted (I guess is the right word) even when your head is straight. Stripes aren't exactly symmetrical on a real tiger, but they ARE patterned in a parallel fashion, meaning that if you continue the lines, they won't touch.
With airbrushing, less is more. Like the inner ear- that would look a lot better if you would have just put black fur in there. Same goes for a lot of places. I'm not saying to sew in the stripes, but in big areas, it's best to sew in black fur. It gives it a darker, more realistic look. Just get actual claws. Here it looks like you airbrushed them on. Again, less is more.
I don't say any of this to be mean. I say it to help you.
You say you will be switching to resin heads? Will you make the molds yourself, or just buy them? Buying them is fine, but you'll never be at your full potential if you don't practice, and learn, and make the molds yourself. I totally suggest carving/making them yourself. It's a good skill to have in the fur suiting world.
Your feet, hands, and tail look AWESOME. I'm not even kidding. The striping on them is good, the proportion is good, and the pads look nice.
Less. Whiskers. The same thing goes for this as the airbrushing; less is more. A real tiger may have tons of whiskers, but they look goofy on a suit if you over-do it.
I tried to get critiques on the formwork before on live journal, but no one answered so i assumed it was okay, i did get a critique from my friend on a part and ended up fixing that, guess ill be more persistent in the future.
umm.. tilted? not sure what you mean? explain maybe?
I try to give critiques in a nice, in depth way. Most of the time people just take it the wrong way though.
Ever need one, come to me. ^^ I can help.
I certainly will thank you again.
But i dont like the eyes... They are... i dont know :/
