I thought that all iterations were awesome, with the exception of the “aggressive” way that the fox “dominate” the earth.

I think its much better than it were on earlier iterations.
What if you guys turn the fox head (so it points to us)? On my mind it would free some of the earths surface and maybe even add an cuteness factor.

I think that the tail is looking a tad uniform and predictable. Stephen Horlander’s tail was more ‘roughed up’ and a little more messy, which is how I like it.

The lack of flames is good. The logo with the tail looking like a flame was ugly IMO. It doesn’t convey the message. Firefox on fire or whatever doesn’t seem to get through to me. The original icon had brighter hairs on the head and neck which draws more attention (better). Very bright lighting on top of this globe. Original globe lighting is easier on the eyes. However keep it glossy to preserve an ocean like appearance.

Globe map could look like Mozilla logo continent. Hence ‘Planet Mozilla’ would be part of the icon!

The tail shape looks good, but i have some suggestions: in general, it will be fantastic if you experiment whit –totally–different textures (surprise us!), in the planet mostly (glossy makes me tired). And the panda body, at least for me, should have a more realistic texture, like in the ‘Hicks concept render 2008 r4′.

I like that one.

Much better balance between right and left than the previous ones.

I like this one. The tail looks less feathery, yet still feels soft.

I just miss a bit more fur on the head; I don’t like it being so perfectly round on the top.

I can’t say anything but finish (tweak) the tail and jump onto the next task :)

I think the tail shapes are now just about right and they appear to the most significant changes for this iteration. I think that the way the planet shows through in between the tail furr on the outside is now more subtle, less chunky in it’s 3D effect.

Very good.

I look forward to seeing the ‘painted’ version, though I am not convinced there needs to be much more ‘painting’ done. What more painting is needed will hopefully be very delicate highlights here or there, nothing massive.

The globe is very good too. I like how foxy’s head casts a shadow as I think somebody previously suggested it should.
