My first try at a realistic character - Page 2

Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world

Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

YOu take a brake from your project as I take a brake from my Droideka Project...i started to model Piccolo s head.....completly accidentaly you decided also to model a head...what a coinincidence!!

you head looks really great to me...it seems only a bit of fat...or unlogical/false anatomy on the cheek area......

Yeah, that strange world project is getting to be a little much (hard to work with). So I need to do something else user added image

I'm not modeling just a haed but a whole body as realistic as possible.

I started over on the haed, using references this time around. But the old haed was ok, I was not happy with the edgeloops.

you sure are! my suggestion is to put the eyes some little more inside. if you have a look at other people´s face you will notice that the width of the head around the eyes is about 5 times length of the eye and the distance between the real eyes actually = 1 eye. so I´d push them a tiny bit to the inside.

everything starts and ends in the right place at the right time.
