I created a 3/4 view of my character. Well I am also trying to create a side/profile view of him too. I got the body done (minus the arms) and I am trying to do the tail right now. This is causing me MAJOR problems. I can’t seem to get it too look right.

Can anybody give me any tips or help me out as to best way to create his tail for his side/profile view?

The files are in:

I’ve spent hours trying to do this tail (using lines, pen, circles, etc) but everything I do doesnt seem right for what the tail would look like from the side.

Thanks.
