Who is the guy on the right in the blue? I can't even tell what he is.

Oh wait nevermind I just saw the pics that were posted of him the other day. I must have missed them on the front page. I have one suggestion: Your Space Avenger doesn't seem to be very uh...what's the word I'm looking for...original, I guess. I think it would make him a better character if you created him in a way that made him different than the others. Give him some trait that would relate him to a cat, or something like that.

Well I'll see what I can up with. I was mainly wanting a character that could shoot rays out if his hands and fly kind of like a Space Ghost parody.

So it's basically that the cat has the same body type, right as the Bunny and the Eagle?

Yeah. There needs to be something that sets him apart from the others. I don't mean to be critical, I just think that it would be best for the character.

Funny thing was I was just playing around with the same poser figure I used for the bunny trying to make the space ghost kind of hero, and noticed it looked like a cat. Course it's bound to look a lot better than south park and look how popular that is. How in the world do they make money with those little stiff figure cartoons anyway.
Always good to hear criticism, that way I know when you say something good you mean it.
Like they always say, honesty is the best policy. I'll keep experimenting.

Personally I think a polar bear would fit better as a space ghost type of hero rather than a cat.

Some of it has to do with how hard it is for me to recreate the character every time too. Like the Eagle I use a Poser figure for his body, but I actually use a copy of a real Eagle's head for the face. I just cartoon it up. The rabbit is easiest. It's a full poser figure I was able to make by taking an existing figure and just expanded the ears, and changed the colors. A polar bear might take some thinking. I'm about ready to take a art course. Hate to, but it might actually be worth it. I just don't know.

My dad took an art course before. He's real good at art. I'm still working on my own artwork. I'm working on a superhero series, and I'd like to get good enough to make it into a comic book.

I was just looking at the Space Avenger again, and I thought that yeah, the face of a polar bear would fit perfectly there. So all that would need to change is the head.

I was thinking about putting a black mask on the cat or making his head look like sylvester the cat color wise.
