Hi guys

Finished the model on the other Alien which is over at my site in the WiP section and have started this new mesh over the weekend. Just been tweaking the ear and lips this evening. Doing a whole batch of character models before texturing and rigging alternatley. Enjoy

Hey FubaR

Thanks man. As alway just trying to make the mesh better than the last one.

Here's the nose now, still wanna tweak it but wanna do the eyes today so see how I get on, then on to the neck area as theres a 'bit' going on there under the chin that you guys cant see right now:o

Enjoy the update

Regards to all
