Default Acceptable bibios?

Are my bibios acceptable? Still feeling my way through the stillwater minefield I'm afraid, so any feedback would be put to good use......

Nowt wrong with those

I like mine with a bit more bulk in the body and well brushed out with velcro but sometimes sparse is best, its good to have a few of each in your box!

Interesting. Would you say I've tied them on the sparse side then? That might be the river tyer in me coming out; try as I might I can't bring myself to dub on a sodding great fat sausage of hair/fur - it affronts my sensibilities you know!

The fur is well ragged out on these, but are you saying I should lay down a thicker body in the first place?

Thanks for the input guys,
Matt
