Those are really cute Peter but I am curious about the long tail and brown color. I was thinking of the Chinese pandas but there may be other kinds. I love your forest settings, they are so peaceful.

I'd never heard of red pandas, let alone seen one, and at first I thought the ears didn't look very panda-like on the basis of the black and white pandas I had seen.  I googled "red panda" images and well, there you are, they look just like Peter's customs, so peetje does it again, another perfect custom.  Well done!   

 :wow:  :wow:  :wow: :wow:

The Red Panda, also called the Firefox or Lesser Panda (Latin name: Ailurus fulgens, "shining cat"), is a mostly herbivorous mammal, specialized as a bamboo feeder. It is slightly larger than a domestic cat.

The Red Panda is endemic to the Himalayas, ranging from Nepal in the west to China in the east. It is also found in northern India, Bhutan and northern Myanmar.[2] There is an estimated population of fewer than 2,500 mature individuals. Their population continues to decline due to habitat fragmentation.[3]
