Proportions and textures kick ass.

Something about the way the eyelids hit the eyes though seem almost composited... maybe could use a water edge for the tears???

Looks great!

Yea....its the eyes i still have the most problems with. I used some lights that just effect the eyes, so i could just tweak the specs. Their is there main spec, then a long weak one near the top...i think this this makes it look like the eyes r compped....i will take it out....cheers.

I post this on every good face I see here.

Amazing work in comparison to my own. I would be forever in your debt if you could write a good tutorial on how you achieved your facial texture.

Once again, it looks great!

SSS test. Alot of probs with sub surface scattering working with HDRI. So i was looking into way of comping them together. Also there is still no propper way of doing SSS in Mental Ray. This sss shader was actualy written by one of my tutors. Still in beta stage.

the modelling looks pretty good, the textures look good also, but the sss is hm not quite right. the eyes detract from the image, they dont seem as photoreal as most. also the bright lighting against the black background doesnt look good imo :surprised

OK...cheers for that. Have made your changes to the eyes. Iris smaller, played with the specs a little more. Better?
