Thanks, and will work a little harder on the fur.

I get greater satisfaction with do-it-yourself. I've not looked at
your IsoWood include yet. I did see your demo post and was impressed.
Must have a play with it when I get time.

The paws were pink like the tail, but they looked even more like hands
then. Kept mice myself as a kid. Made what seemed like lots of money

Ever had that situation trying to get all 4 legs of a table or chair
the same length? Increase one component and the others don't look
right then :-} Thanks for the advice though.

Thanks Peter. The original cartoon was around 3:1 aspect ratio. The
viewing angle was high enough to avoid any background, just floor
boards. I already had a mousetrap and helmet and thought the scene
would be easier. I was wrong :(
