Mammuthus exilis the small Channel Islands mammoth subject to island dwarfism still lived in a cold environment and I think when drawing this mammoth one must consider that small cold adapted creatures must present a more ... spherical form to retain heat than larger cold adapted creatures.

Basically I'm saying that they should have puffy coats like a pallas cat and be essentially round. Consider the long tusks only emerging 2/3s of the way.

Just a thought for all you paleo artists out there.
