I know, the head (like the rest of the body) is made with blobs, and I'm not
quite sure if I want to change the eyes or not, mainly because the cat won't
be featured prominently in the image, and something that looks close to a
cat is really sufficient. I might give the eyes another go this week, but
I'm closing in on the christmas deadline, and yet need to model a tree, a
bird's nest and a landscape (probably with some backdrop-tree-textures, a
fence etc). Once I've positioned the cat, I'll see if I really need to
adjust the eyes, or if it's okay the way it is. But thanks for the comment,
I'll keep it in mind.

Thanks, I just hope that they will be visible in the final image without
needing to resort to really high-antialiasing settings...

Regards,
Tim
