It is hard to think of anything more lovely and fluffy looking than an Artic fox in his winter finery  drunken
- well, unless you are a small bird or rodent, who lives as his neighbour, of course  Laughing

So it is a pleasure to present this beautyful model to y'all  Very Happy

First a couple of pictures of the whole of him :

The his tummy and paws.
Has he been walking in something grey and sticky  scratch  Laughing
It is a fine detail that the front paws are a little mors round and short than the hind paws  Applause

And now to something that I know will give some of us red spots !!! Glued-together marks  affraid

Worst case scenario : Here I have placed the light so it looks VERY clear. Seen in direct light it is not nearly so noticeable  Wink
No matter how much I like this fox, ther is no was to deny it : The model is hollow, and been glued together rather clumsily  Crying or Very sad  Rolling Eyes

Let's hurry on : He has the most charming mischievous, orange eyes  cheers

Something is not completely right about his profile .
The "stop" should be sharper, and the nose a little longer.
It is probably made to stress the look of a furry face with the pointed nose sticking out...or what do you think ?

The fluffy ears are perfect for a predator living in a cold place : Small enought to not freeze, and large enough for extremely good hearing Very Happy

Wonderful walk around! Very Happy I am very happy that Safari decided to introduce a fox in their Wildlife Wonders series and an Arctic fox is an adjusted choice. The figure is attractive in my opinion and results in a pleasant piece. You're right about your observations, the profile of the head is not completely correct. I jewel to be added in my collection! Very Happy
