Hi,

I've started modelling a lo poly head for the actress Kiera Kngihtley (she's the woman in Pirates of the caribean plus Bend it like Beckham).

here's my first draft - I think I'm getting there, but it's still not there - I've been staring at this thing for ages and I can't put my finger on whats wrong, so I thought I'd open it up to you guys....

heres a few shots of the head so far..

Looks cool, but her head is way too short, as in the distance between her eyes and the top of her head.

:hmm:

Show us multiple views please. She does appear to have a touch of the mongoloid (sp?) to her.

I suggest you make the lips just a bit fuller and remove some of that redness around the eyes.

One major problem that might be giving you problems when staring at it is the lack of the top of her head. I know you are not done, but because the top of her head is not there, her face is too short and her eyes are too high in her face and all these little things. Once you add the top of the head and hair and stuff, all those little things that are likely bugging you when you look at it should go away.

E.Z.Schwartz and Zytrex, yeah I know the forehead is too short, it's like Zytrex says, once I have the hairpiece on there, that's not too much of a problem.

Beholder, what do you mean mongoloid (sp?)?

Keep em coming guys.

OK I've been a bit busy the last few days (its been a bank holiday, which in England basically equates to a great excuse to spend all day in the pub!) so sorry about the lack of updates, but heres a quick rotation avi so you can see her from differewnt angles. Crits are welcome. Don't worry about the green bits in the hair - thats just the way we do transparencies in our engine here at work, so the final version wouldn't show that...Kieras Spinning head!

well i don't really know...but i think she would look more like the original if you make her cheeks somewhat 'more full':shrug:
