It's looking very good so far! However I have a few tips:

You've got quite a conehead going on there. I recommend either shaving the pointy tip of your noodle down some, or padding it up underneath the ears to give it a rounder shape.

Your ears are sticking out instead of up; partially to do with the conehead shape. If that's how you want your ears, that's fine, but a normal canine's are sticking up even before they flop over. This is alleviated if you choose to build up the head; removing the ears would be beneficial before you attempt this.

http://community.livejournal.com/fursuit/2718496.html Here is a great doodle of how the bottom of the ear is curved to give it that natural look Laughing out loud

Build up your eyeridges some more. Canines have some expressive brows. :3

Also, remember remember remember that fur adds an ENORMOUS amount of bulk to your head. Try to make the foamwork as small as possible, or you'll end up with a head that is too big for your body type (unless this is what you are going for, and are going to make an equally bulky body to go with it).

Here's an example with some WIPs of my gryph head:

I hope this helps!

Due to economic recession and budget cuts the light at the end of the tunnel has been turned off, we're sorry for the inconvenience.
