hi!
Maybe take a step back and reconsider the general proportions and construction. I recommend doing overpaints in a 2d application while checking out 3d references on sketchfab to see how other artists made the stylization and solved certain problems.
Push more stylization and planes, also work out shapes better - e.g. eyes are just wrapped to head
Posture: standing on ball of feet, slightly leaning forward, balancing with tail?
Good Luck!
Make the ears a little bit shorter and the base the widest part of the ears. Then you will got an instantly recognizable "cartoonish" cat
Thanks for tips,I got some great ideas from you.I really like the tapered body and the front siluette looks good with that head.I don't think i will make the planes on it that sharp tho,i aim for something cartoonish,like old Tom&Jerry cartoons.I will make some changes and call it done,still need to retopo,texture,animate...If you want me to post the progress,I will be more than happy.Thanks!
