Peltra: hehe.. I know that the knuckle lines aren't that far, I just was too tired to fix those before I got to bed. Thanks for the refs!

Rubberchicken: Thanks... but after wathing a thread at CG Talk originally started by Stahlberg I wonder if thats way too much geometry around the mouth. He showed a female head with lots less faces that looked real good rendered. He also uses 5-sides faces... and claiming that they are no problem if you put them at the right place.... hm.. .. to 5-sides or not to 5-sides, that's the question.

Jango: thanks for your input, very uselful as usual. You're right about the details, I actually shouldn't make it too detailed since I wasn't planning to do any real close-ups of the hands. If they look ok from distance I'm satisfied. I wanna start texturing and posing some day too :p
