Looking for some critique (for the face)

Hi, I just uploaded this drawing to the Proko July challenge. I really rushed it and finished it in aproximetely 1 1/2 hours at 3 am.
Im not really content with it. I find a lot of mistakes in the hands and in the head of the cat.I posted it because I was relatively content with the depiction of my girlfriend at the left of the picture.
However, when I showed her the result she apparently found all sorts of problems with the face
The thing is: I can't see those problems. Even with a mirror. Which scares me because I begin to question my judgement on how good my portraits are
What do you think about that face ?

Hey Nils,
I like your idea for the drawing, and in general, it's a good.
One of the things I noticed is that your portrait of your girlfriend is close, but the reason it lacks likeness, is because the angles and relationships of the features are off.
Having the features in the right place is not all there is to likeness, how they relate to each other is also real important. You will notice in my comparison that your features are all at different angles from each other. The nose is also crooked and too wide.
I hope this helps :)
