Yea, I've got to agree with Dead Fish that this reminds me of noface from some a Studio Ghibli movie who's name escapes me right now. Well, only the mask reminds me of him really, the rest of him is very plush and wholly. Interesting mix of Japanese mythology reference with your preference for animal themed work. They work very well in this one.
I should think he'd be scary when he opens that dainty little mouth too. Puts me in mind of the sphynx from Mirrormask withoug being anything like them
I'd love to see more - animated this would be awesome. I can imagine it moving.

wicked cool creature design. Personally I like the cel shading you decided to go with, I don't find it lazy.

Freaking awesome. I dunno He's scary enough as it is already, with his eyes closed, that is.
