This is reference from a live gray fox, and the head is looking slightly off center, but the eyes are better then yours, you need pictures to use when mounting, instead of guessing. Use pictures,  use pictures, use pictures, use pictures, use pictures, use pictures, use pictures, use pictures, use pictures, use pictures, use pictures, use pictures, use pictures,.      Grin Grin Grin

As Mr. T has stated, you really need to use as much reference as possible
You can never have to many photos of live critters.
I see many other things wrong on that Fox besides the eye work too.
