I started this female today since it was ages I modelled a human. The mesh is the same as an old male head I did some year ago. Still needs lot of work since I want her to look "hot".

hehe I've just started to work on modeling a female using the fantasy female tutorial here as a guide, since I don't know how to model people very well. I wish you luck and once I get some work done on mine I'll be starting a thread on it... will you be rendering this out in maxwell as well?

Turbo Dan: Yeah a hot looking human female is probably the hardest thing you can model...

Rhetoric Camel: Good luck to you too... I think I'll use the SSS shader in Mental Ray for this one and leave Maxwell out of it this time.

looks like you're getting there, I know that I have trouble telling if the model I'm making is up to par unless I make a bit of hair on a different layer to pop up when I want to see how she looks. I was never really a fan of bald women. Keep up the work, it's starting to shape out nicely.

Jay, yes I have lots of female heads in different angles. And I actually used those you sent me of Natalie Portman like 2.5 years ago as reference too...hehe.

Camel, yeah as I use to say...every woman looks better in long hair. Even if there's like 5 girls in the world that looks hot with a bald head they would look even hotter in long hair :p

The tweaking continues...

Made a render this time to see how it looks like with more realistic lighting.

Think you could do with a good tweek on the ears as they look kinda odd at the moment

Looking good Dj!

As said the ears definitely need re-evaluating, and you might want to make the Brow bone slightly more prominent, and also bring in the eyelid a bit at the top. At the moment she looks Asian. Which isn't a problem.... It just doesn't look anything like Natalie Portman user added image

Also maybe the Sterno Mastoids should be slightly more prominent.... But thats probably being too picky.

Anyway, nice work thus far!

Yeah, I haven't touched the ears yet I know they need some work.

I only used Natalie Portman as a reference in the beginning, now I use lots of different photos of different persons so I'm not going for a Natalie Portman look exactly... however I'm not going for an asian look either and I also noticed the eyes resemble asian eyes somewhat, will have a look at them. Haven't really touched the neck that much yet either.

Thanks for the crits, guys!
