I need some second opinion, I have been working and working and staring at her head for so long, I need a pair of fresh eyes.

Some background inform: I intend to make a 6th grade girl (9 to 10 yrs old), and the style will be cartoonish. So I do not want to make a realistic head in anyway. I hope to make her look cute and appealing in the end.

This is still a WIP, so the ear is still missing, and head mass is not done, nostril not there yet. And the eyeball is only temporary, I'll make new ones.

What I want from you is to get some feedback as to how the overall facial features are working. What you don't like, what can be improved, etc. Thanks.

Sorry to say, but she looks a bit too scray :eek:

Her eyes are a bit huge :hmm:

For a sec I thought she was abducted by aliens (no offense). As you know first impression lasts :rolleyes:

I like the cheeks, chin and mouth. The nose is a bit too pointy and narrow.

Sorry to notice again but hers eyes (eye socket) are way too big, change it to about 60 ~80 % of original size.

But I got to say good work on the lips.

And please add some hair :scream:

Hi man - good start, but to be honest, she looks kind of alien like, with the slitty eyes and the flat face....

Her face needs more definition.Look at pictures of when u were a kid, or sister/cousin.

Good luck :thumbsup:

I think, to make a face look younger, you have to round off the features, and make everything look softer.

Also, if you're going for a cartoony look, you might be able to pull off those eyes. But the fact that they're realisticly shaped, but unrealisticly large is sorta offputting.

Hope that helps.

Thanks Obraxis and Lucidium, I'll round off the face and get rid of the eye! :)
