Nameless Red Panda Character

I got an idea for a fursuit recently that I would like to see as a real suit. If this first head I'm going to attempt at some point is any good I might try making this guy as well.

Also, proof that I can still draw things that are not ponies xD (And I've never draw a red panda before so I was pretty satisfied with this)

I'm not certain how I want his colors to look but I'll line and color him digitally at some point. His colors will be black, gray, orange and white, not sure exactly where each color will go though, and in what pattern. Here's what I'm thinking though:
Solid gray body, black arms, legs, ears, and tail stripes, orange tear streaks and tail tip, white muzzle, forehead dots and inner ears.
OR
Solid black body, cut off at just above shoulders to gray, the gray reaches down the chest so that he has a floofy gray chest, but that's where they gray cuts off, gray head and tail stripes, orange tear streaks, white muzzle, eye dots, ear floof and tail tip, and black outer ears.

Main differences between the two being that the first one has a solid gray body with just black arms, legs, tail stripes and ears, whereas the second one has solid black body with a gray head reaching down to his shoulders and a floofy gray chest, and the tail tip is white.

These aren't my only ideas, they're just the bigger ones that I'm leaning more towards. I'm also thinking of ways I could make it so that there's no white at all. Maybe if I made the muzzle gray as well, and inner ears orange or gray. Tail tip would be orange or gray if there was no white.

I dunno, I liked the idea though.

Only submitted this because I wanted to submit something today 'cause I felt like it but didn't like what I tried drawing tonight enough to submit it. I do have some doodles I'd like to submit, but I keep forgetting to take them out of my math folder at school and I never bring that home so...

I'm also trying to think of a name for this guy, but I'll focus more on that once he's colored.
