Yeah, other people have said that too. It looks a little strange to me too.
The thing is, when I modelled it I made sure to follow that guideline (it
was drilled into me in art class :))- here is a side view to show that the
eyes really are about halfway between the chin and the top of the head.
Perhaps I have the highest point too far back? Perhaps it's camera angle?
What do you think?
