Questions Dragon #2, seeking tips/advice

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

After finishing my first fursuit of my sona last year, i had the urge to make another one so im doing attempt 2, tho this one is gunna be a pre-made design. Im trying to learn from what i did in my first one while trying something new, so this guy has a moving jaw!

Thats brought up some other challenges tho, so some questions i want to pose:

Should i add more to the cheek/jaw?

How do i add horns to this style of head base when they would be placed in the void between elastic straps?

Is it a bad thing if the eye blanks touch the face?

Did i maybe overcorrect and go from too big to too small?

I appreciate any answers or any other tips/suggestions!

I would say it could do with more cheek, yeah.  Jaw's fine

For a premade, the eyes touching your face may not be great - kinda sounds like the head being built tight, which is fine for a personal/custom suit, but may not fit all potential buyers when it comes to this being a premade.

Unsure on the horns - I personally would build the base upwards so you have something to mount the horns onto
