Help with Charr head size
depends on the look you are going for but what I like is the thicker the body size, the smaller the head size to even it out. But that rule looks wierd on the extreme thick bodies. Also, the haed shape will make a big diffrence.
i.e.: The hyena Grindahl has a below midlevel head size. The bigger the head on him made him look too much like that lizard man from thundercats. All head and shoulders.
The black one Rhipclaw has almost the biggest head on the the thinnest body. Giving him kind of a rat look but since he’s also the tallest he is still imposing.
edit: your body size is pretty thick but your head shape looks like you could get away with halfway over mid level and still look good. it looks good a mid level too.

It depends on how you want the head to look in comparison to the body.
On my female charr, I wanted her to look as big and bulky as possible. I picked the largest body type (as you did) and one of the larger-boned heads (also, like you did).
Then I made her head smaller, so it was about halfway between midpoint and the left side of the slider. Since her head is smaller then average, it makes her body look even more bulky & muscular by comparison. (Pic example below—however keep in mind she’s going to look thinner in-game then she does in the character creator. So in that case, you might want to do as I did & downsize the head for maximum bulk appearance)
A word of caution, though. If you pick one of the small-boned heads, such as the cheetah, you may not want to downsize it 100% in comparison to a bulky body. It isn’t bad, but it starts looking unusual. (Although this applies more to males)
Also, be careful if you pick one of the large-boned heads and make it as big as possible on the most skinny body—then you have a bobblehead charr, and that can look off too. (Although this applies more to female charr. I’ve seen male charr, like the ones above, who look fine with a big head and thin body)

Found this guy in Lions Arch. He seems to have a pretty big head on a thin body but the roundness of the head gives him more of a human look than the elongated head of my rat beast thing. :P
A: they’re all proportionally correct. Just move the slider back and forth then let go when you like it.

Actually, to me, her head looks a bit smaller then average. And she’s got a more average body type, as femcharr go.
What on earth is that weird circular thing btw? Looks like it’s on a window or something. Has its texture not loaded or what?
Ya, i just logged in to take the pic real quick. prob didn’t have time.
