Thanks, everyone! :D It's the first time I've attempted a big(ish) change to a design, so, considering my inexperience at such things I'm tolerably pleased. Everything else is as the designer did it, even the lop-sided whiskers - though I did add a few single-strand eyebrow whiskers, which look good in RL but you can't see 'em much on the photo.
Yes Will's reaction was great! Very sparkly-eyed and big grin!
