I would like to try a 2 piece head, but the one I have drawn is no good - so any advice  links would be nice     bear_rolleyes

What is it that you don't like about it?  Have you tried to make it up and not liked the shape?  If so what part did you not like?

I think the head gets to high on top, but maybe I could try to make a bigger head and lower the forhead ?
Thats the only 2 piece head I have ever made.

Did you try using darts?  A dart on each side at the top of the head will round it out more, and make it less 'peaky' if that's the problem you're experiencing.  Darts in general will round things 'sideways' if you see what I mean
