Hello world.

First of all thanks for this fantastic site and your great work (sorry for my english).
This is my first post, and my first realistic head attempt...

This head is based on the MR2K Tuotorial. Thanks a lot MR2K.

So I need your help, C&C, ... Could you help me to find my errors, plz help me :bounce:
Render time : 10s (Scanline render, default light, LPM with mesh smooth...)

:bounce: I see Incredible artists here :hmm:, really amazing site ! :bounce:

Thanks again every body.

i dont know anything about the tutorial, but it looks pretty good...only a couple things i can see.

-the ears should be lowered slitly..normally the top of the ear lines up with the eye or brow area and ends at the bottom of the nose

-is it already seamed together? only reason i ask is because you can see the seam especially at the chin

but its definitely better than i can do, so great job :applause:

Any other suggestion, plz?
I think to have a lot of other proportions errors, but I don't really find them.

My maya teacher at art center had this advice for learning to model heads:

make a head. This first head will suck. Start over. The second head will also suck. Start over. After a few tries you will start to see where your work flow went wrong. (you should see my first head....arrrrrgh it was so awful) This one actually looks really good for a first try. I would still recommend scrapping the whole thing and starting from scratch. It will go faster the next time around and things will really start to look good. I am not familiar with the tutorial you are talking about, but start thinking of the form.

A harder way (but it will take you a lot of time, mind it): start a 1st head, it will be crappy, then work on it for 3 months, it will be a great satisfaction ;)
