Having drawn https://www.furaffinity.net/view/20143966/ I thought to fit it to a badger silhouette, to help explain the difference between badgers and dogs.
I get disappointed when people draw badgers like dogs, or otherwise get their head shapes wrong beyond reasonable levels of 'interpretation'.
It's a smooth convex curve from nape to nose, with just a slight upturn where the skull bone turns into nose gristle (which is pretty mobile), and the muzzle and whiskers hide the chin, by and large.

Cheers. I've been curious about this myself for a while, but hadn't thought to crystallise it this way until I drew the skull the other night. There's a lot of nose beyond the skull - I suppose that makes for a mobile proboscis for rooting around, like coatis have (boy, do coatis have mobile noses!).
I was very pleased that the teeth fit together when I closed the jaw with the rotate/transpose tool. :)
