I changed her design to find something cuter, calmer, more harmonious. But I couldn't find s candy red color that I felt was cute and soft. They all made her look a bit rough house.

I quit trying to make her monochrome (all reds) and went with a red yellow blue scheme, so I changed her hair to pink and was able to bring out her eyes with blue surrounded by gold. Copied on the collar.

There are even more color changes from the second image to the third, but they're less extreme.
