Commentary

I despaired of doing an adequate selection of the groundhog, so I decided to recreate his head from scratch. The bristling fur was created using a layer half black and half white and applying the wind filter, then changing from rectangular to polar coordinates. The nose, eyes, head and ears were all made with elliptical selections and bevels. I used the Eye Candy fur filter to add a little texture to some areas of the head and a sepia layer style to color the whole image.
