Day 4

 I'm actually pretty pleased with this one.  I made myself sketch the complete shape before I started in, and the proportions look pretty decent overall, without major, obvious distortions. I also made some use of values, and I think it makes it a lot more lively, particularly around the eye.

The fur was super-hard to do, because the chipmunk has light and dark hairs together that form its pattern, and it was hard to figure out what overall value to use there without making it look like it was shaved.

Very nice. Even though they're pesky rodents (get off my lawn). Very cute.
