Well I'm no expert on heads, but if they will be like this, that in my option is a good head I'd say minimum 250 and max 375....

Thank you I appreciate it! I've been at such a loss for even a ballpark idea of what to start at XD

Hey this is an amazing head, is love to have one, but I don't have the money to spend

and I totally understand lol I never would be able to afford one commissioned so I was glad I was able to make a halfway descent one myself

Halfway decent? Uh this is WAY above halfway decent

Oh thank you! I tend to really nitpick stuff I do lol so I was thinking it was just like ehhhh okayish/ halfway decent >.< that makes me feel alot better about it though lol

Trust me one of the best heads I've seen in a while that wasn't made by a person who does full time commisions

yay lol

It's true! Maybe you should try making a partial, or a full suit... I'm sure you'd do great

Shes actually a fullsuit haha and it went okay lol needs alot more tailoring. Ended up overestimating and it was baggy in some places and too long XD

I've got to see!

Lol I'd send ya a link but I'm on my mobile. There's a couple in my gallery though

Okay

What kind of jawset did you use, ~

That one is a small k9 one I got from dream vision unpainted. That's one of the few things I haven't dabbled in attempting yet. That and the silicon pawpads & tongues. One day lol

I would same make some more before opening for commissions (or make some for friends or aomething). Making a suit for yourself and making one for a customer are very different.

As for the head itself, overall it is pretty good, the shaving is nice and neat and you have the fur in the right direction. There are a couple of things though. The eyes should have a bit more variation in colour (especially for a realistic head), if you have a look at these eyes there are flecks of different colours in them http://www.furaffinity.net/view/9884116/
The ears also splay out to the side alot, if you look at a dogs ears they sit upright alot more. I would also suggest shaving down the ears.

Thank you for the advice. The ears never did set well with me XD just haven't had a chance to play around with it yet. I appreciate any critiques. As for the making more suits, that's where I was stuck. I would like to make on for a friend or something, but I'm like the only furry in the area. Let alone a fursuiter. I don't have any furry friends/ family members lol.... So I'm kinda at a loss =/ the only thing I could think of were to take a couple from strangers over the winter and see. I don't know how else to get that kind of experience. Any ideas?

I agree with everything Toska said. If you don't have a friend to make a suit for I suggest you make a couple premades. Take measurements off of a family member and construct a head (and maybe parts) around those measurements. Once you've finished give the pieces to your family member to try on: you should be able to make a well fitting [partial]suit from measurements alone.

When making a couple premades, though, don't just make canines. Show your skills by making a cat and something out there (dragon, otter, and horse/pony are a couple ideas).

You'll also want to get a solid ToS in order to protect both you and your customers.

If you have any questions feel free to ask! Talkin shop is one of my favorite things to do.

I never thought of premades! Duh! lol and I will definitely do something other than just canines. That's a good idea on the whole getting measurements then having them try it on later. Thank you for the advice

Yep, premades are great, thats how I started out and I have been making suits for 3 years now.

Good luck with it :)

Awesome and thanks XD

I think it could use bottom eyelids. It looks a little O.O to me lol.

But other than that, it's pretty awesome. c:

lol yeah..... their there, so atleast that won't be a hard fix. Just pull them off and up a bit. I had never noticed that but looking at her now she does look a bit O.O XD

And thanks!

its so pretty

Hehe thank you so much! (and thanks for the favs by the way XD)

Omgsh your fursona is gorgeous ^^

You said this is your first head you've made? this is honestly really good! I'd commission you :)
