I had drawn light marks to indicate the head's size and position, and as I worked on facial features, and adjusted the outer limits of the head in relationship with nose, eyes, etc, I kept getting a bigger head than I intended. Not huge, but bigger than a normal cat.

The study you see here pretty accurately reflects the proportions in the photo, but there may be a bit of distortion because the photo was taken from too close in. I know that this is not the proper way to take a photo, but I don't have the right camera and lenses, so I have to make do. I may take some measurements of my own cats' heads, and make adjustments in the final piece.
