In the first picture the hair is great, but interfere with the ears (it passing through)
The second one is moor cartoonish (did you borrowed the hair from little Gocu??? or something, one of your preceding work?)
Ah, enyway bougth of them are nice, but I like most the first one even the second is more cartoonish
Great job...

.. yea.. the second hair is from my goku model.. as i cant win, i just scrounged that up.. its the first thing i used from a previous project though, I think im going to try to do a new style altogether with a combo of transparency maps and textures . Anyways... back to the drawing board..

.. i probably would of added a lot more, but the geometry was hard to work with. ANyways, i have been playing around with proportions.. and this is what i have so far.. i think i may go for a different approach though, as its nothing like me.. heheheh. Anyways, i thought it looked funny. C&C welcome. BTW, thanks for the comments .DOH, i didnt smooth the head in that one, and i shut maya already for the night
. Anyways.. next render will be smoothed.

I really like the hair like that it matches the startled expression. Be great to put him in a scene where something scary had happened (like a PC crash before saving in Maya!).
Even if it doesn't look like you it is funny though. Nice.

... i tried to grasp that in a way.. i just took it along with the flow though.. saying.. hmm.. should i do this.. or that. It doesnt really look like a cartoon though atm.. so i am going to have to start rounding stuff off.. taking OFF definition.. lol, like the ear for example, and the sharp edges on the face .
