This is my first head modeled this way ( it is really headache ), just want to show you guys user added image

What do you mean?

B.T.W. I have saw one movie on the luxology site ( Modo ) , how you can change the distortion in the perspective viewport by changing the Open GL settings. Does anybody know if it is possible in Maya? ( hope you know what I mean )

to change the level of perspective, select the camera and change the angle of view in the attributes window or the channel editor. Lower angle=less perspective or try cranking it up for some truly vomit inducing perspective. user added image

There is also a box you can tick in the attribute window to make the camera orthographic which can be handy.

Yes man you are right! I think I did try this but not enough, it is the angle of view. Thanks very much!

Yes, I've just forgot to tell. It's good dvd but maybe the ******'s are better, cause sometimes he do something without telling you why.

that´s a nice patch head JCUBE! I tried to patchmodel me a head myself, but think I´ll give it up right now. I just don´t have the patience for cut, attach, cut,... and it get´s more and more far away from looking like a face/head.

so -> cool head u made here! cheers!
