The necks look a little bit long to me and it's hard to tell from only one angle but it seems the bodies are wide enough from side to side, but not front to back. Do you get what I mean? Also I think you need to shape the tummy fur a bit better it doesn't really do it for me. :)

Good characters, Steve, but I would do something about the Leonardo poses... You could rig them and invent a scene conveying more of their personalities. Also, lose the lens flare - it just detracts from the characters. Keep posting, it will be cool to see how this develops...

Yes, steve, please lose the lens flares. Nothing screms newbie like the lens flare. Ok, maybe the checkered floor and the relfective ball is a step lower but lens flares are a very nice second.;)

Daddy bear has a seriously great face, I think mummy bear should move in that direction.

I really dislike the squared off belly fur sections, PLEASE round them off pronto!
