Nowt wrong with them Danny, keep em coming.
As ST says, cut the jc down the centre and round of straight edge with scissors to match the outside curve and walla two good cheeks.

also you can cut the white bits to shape, leave it white for certain patterns
or colour with markers, holographic cut to shape is good.
also try biots
gerrys got some sunburst edge biots which are kind of jungle like.
nice georges mate lovely hackle on that sedge stimmy.
