I think I get what you mean. The corner of each eye should be more in line with each other, I'll fix it when I work on it next, cheers for replying.

Thanks yeah I see what you are saying, I tend to exaggerate angles quite often I find. I could put it over the top yeah, but i'm trying to train my eye to see the mistakes more so i'd rather try and work it out on my own.

I'll make it bigger yeah and see if that helps. I don't want to stick them right next to each other though and line everything up together because that's almost like using a grid i think. Unless using a grid is actually a good way to improve? I don't think I've ever heard anyone say it is though.
