I'm trying to make a good dachshund - but I'm having a little problems with the head.. I haven't modeled in a very long time.. but do you think it'd be ok to start on the eyes before I tweak the head just right? (also any crits)

and the wire frame:

I don't know what to model after for the head.. I'm having trouble having it come out right.... I wanted to go for mostly photorealistic, but it looks slightly cartoony with the head... don't know the best way to model it..

ooh, thanks! My girlfriend has 2 of them, but I'm not going to be over to take pics until saturday :-/ If you have any other ones showing off the head, it would be very cool too - but what do you think of it so far?

here is the head reworked a bit... having trouble with lips and ears... and I may need to change shape of the head more to get the eyes to work.. :/
