My first attempt at a real human head, c&c please

[mlabrams]

good start so far, proportions look pretty good :)

[ray]

It's got a friendly smile!

on flaw I can spot, the cheekbone is too low. Together with the forhead "bone" it should form a round opening around the eye, look at this skull:

looks pretty good! yeah raise the cheekbone some that'll help. Maybe also lower it just a tad? I think you're at a good point to add some ears and maybe start thinkin about some facial wrinkles. make the chin more prominent too....

Anyways, good work!

Pretty good work - not easy. Work on the eyes, raise the cheekbones and eradicate the seam of course. The proportions are sound; it looks convincing :)

[Hexodam]

thanks everyone, will work on the cheekbones and the eyes next :)

[Hexodam]

small update, cheekbones a little higher and some eyes

I'm modellizing my first human face and I think your wireframe view could held me :D
I hope my face rendering will be fine than yours ... :p

Again :: GOOD JOB MAN :thumbsup:

[Hexodam]

thanks aldo :)

anyone else, realy need some crits

[Hexodam]

since everythinks the head is perfect:shrug:
I have now started on the body

http://notendur.centrum.is/~czar/3d/Char06/Test06-Body.jpg
porportions are somewhat wrong

[Hexodam]

right.. head is too big

[Koma]

eye are looking too catoonish ... corner of the lips lookin really weirds ,nose the part where the narine are look too flat ....chin and eyebrown still need refinement ....... its a good start .. some of your poly can cause problem because you have some 5 point poly ... im a fan of quad only modelling ... 3 or 5 and more can sometime make a feeling of strech .....before start the body i still think that you can focus on tweaking the head an try to make ears .

[Hexodam]

thanks Koma :buttrock:

What do you mean about the eyes look too cartoonish?

...Or the body is too small. :p It's fine if he's real short, but yeah another head-height of body on there and it might look better.

Coming along pretty darn well from where you've started-- you've fixed quite a few problems in the face. The nose still needs a fair amount of work, and I think maybe the eyes are a bit too large. Also, the top of his head isn't quite high enough-- the top of the skull should be the same distance from the eyes that the bottom of the chin is.

The proportions of the lower half of the face (length of nose, distance to chin) are accurate. The mouth will need some more work, but at least you've avoided the lip-corner problems that a lot of people get, all you'll have to do is make the area around the corners of the mouth poof out a bit so the corners are more like soft divots than cuts into his face.

There's something a bit odd going on with his chin-- the back part of his jaw is quite good, but the front part of his chin is too narrow. You should be able to see an angle a little less farther out than the corner of his mouth, rather than a little lump in the very middle. Hope that makes sense!

You've got the right general idea with the mesh-- check out the sticky topology thread (http://www.cgtalk.com/showthread.php?s=&threadid=38469) in the modeling section for some good examples of how head meshes work. :cool:

[Hexodam]

wow, thanks Gnarly, exactly the crit I was looking for :buttrock:
Koma had the right idea also :)
