hmm no crits?

[zachlantow]

Your edge loops look pretty good. Around the eyes looks a little funky but it might just be the view you gave us. I only have two real crits. The topology in his neck area looks sort of weird, like its all angling in toward one point in the chest. I think that it should follow the contour of the rest of his body instead of stopping there. Also, he dosent look like he has eyelids. If he does than please excuse this comment, but from these views it looks like he couldnt close his eyes if he wanted to! This really only took you a couple hours? Very good modeling for the time frame. Looks like saw a ghost!:p

zachlantow,
thanx for the crits. i wasnt happy with the face, there was something wrong about it and i think you did a great job hitting the nail on the head. i have adjusted it i have been tweaking the model for about 2 hours now. i am alot happier with it atm. but it could still improve.

heres the update,

Looks a lot better man, I'm lovin it! Keep it up and I'll post again once you get some more wips up. Good work man.

Are you using any references, if you are could you post them, its easier to critique, its looking pretty good though,

[lbzd210]

fissioneffect,

i am using refence of anatomy, i am not really using reference of an actual person. if you want i can post them later today. right now i have to go to work.

That looks nice man, I agree with others that it would be good to check out the reference you're using. One thing I noticed, however, is that if you intend to do facial animation with this model, you might want to rethink your edge loops around the mouth area. Try making them more circular around the mouth as to emulate the underlying muscle structure. This will give you more natural deformation when he's opening and closing his mouth. Looking forward to your progress!

Here is the start of the texturing there are problems but i wanted to get some feed back from you guys. I know there are seams but they are easy to fix. and i am getting funky artifacts in my displacement map. at like the ear.

hmm... I think the problem in the face is your proportions of the mouth and eyes. The corners of the mouth should be alinged with the center of the eyes, but your model doesnt look so. The eyes to me look large... wide meaning and maybe to tall? I'm not quite sure.. but its something with the eyes? Anyonee else got any input on that?
