VERY First Face: Girl

[Shaykai]

Sweet model, my only critiques are i think the cheeks are too big. It looks like she came from the dentist and has huge cotton balls in them. Also i don't know if its the angle or what, but her eyes seem kinda far apart. Other than that its awesome!

Thanks a lot ;)
I will check out what you said. The thing with her cheeks already caught my eye but I was too tired to fix it now. Will give her some tweaking tomorrow. Some for the thing with the eyes. Thanks for helping me here :thumbsup:

[Shaykai]

No problem, i'm a fan of your work :)

[borchert]

Nice work !!
but the eyes is the thing that I thought was wrong, try creating a double egde where you want the actual form of the eye it will give her a better look !!
hope you can use the advice and sorry about my english !!

if you want to model a photorealistic head in stead of a cartoon you shouldn't have taken the refs from the joan of arc tut
(eyes are to big and should be higher in the skull )

but i think you could model a realistic head as easy

nice work

[Lordrych]

Just for another hint the eyes they are way to far back in the skull bring them forward.......................

Thanks for all the nice replies and tips. I tried to follow your guys guideline, rezized the eyes and moved them forward, worked on the mouth and cheeck area and a bit on the eyelids.

Did it improve? What else can be done?

Ok little update. Added ears and redefined again the proportions of the head, eyes and stuff. Also added a basic (quick and very basic) lightning. C&C appreciated...

I see this is coming along nicely! Showing good progress from the first image!

This time, I think the ears are too far back, but that may just be the camera angle... and there's still something wrong with her cheeks! Try using reference images from www.fineart.sk (http://www.fineart.sk), they have some really useful photos there!


Please keep posting updates!

[JonasNoell]

Thanks a lot! :thumbsup:
I think I will download some refs from there and try to adjust my the head towards the foto.

About the position of the ears, I just placed them right HERE (http://www.josh.ch/phpmywebmin/_uploads/cANt/Head8.jpg) Is this wrong?

I must agree, you are heading in the right direction. Keep working on it.
You may need to check your model against some anatomical references, even when you are going for a cartoonish look, because you need to know the rules before you are to bend them.
Here is my thinking about the neck/skull (it was too tall I think)
But then again, that's me!

[Darkmesh]

Well looks nice, I wish to be able to get the same results.

GO On ;)

[Shaykai]

its coming along nicely! I think the nose and eyes and lips are perfect, the only thing i would change are those cheek bones.

[L_4]

I really like your new model. It shows great improvement over the last one.:applause:

GREAT JOB!

[celezionka]

I agree with the above comments on the cheeks - they look a little fuller than they should. The cheekbones can be high if you want, but look just lateral to the corners of the mouth -- the cheeks shouldn't be so full there (unless you want a bejowled beauty).

I'd hit it two times. Once more if you raise her check a little (thou that is jsut my taste)

[Annuostivix]

haha, heiyuu, about your quote under your name... I used to link to my drive all the time :D Cant, your model is headed in the right direction, but the bone structure is lacking a lot of form that resembles a real humans face . In terms of photorealism, I assume that means your ending render looks like a photograph quality image, as if taken by a camera. it's easiest to achieve a photorealistic effect if the model resembles something that we can recognize easily, I believe. I might be wrong. And so, if you are to correct the cheek bones and maybe the forehead, it looks a little off to me, then you'd be on the perfect track. the lips and nose and stuff look really good. The eyes are maybe a little different from the usual, but I'm not going to complain. :)

Oh yeah, I'm a fan of your work :D Especially your 2d stuff.

[JonasNoell]

Woah lots of replies, thanks a lot :thumbsup:

I loaded some refs from fineart.sk and tried to adapt my model towards them so that the proportions will look more correct. I mainly resized the head moved the position of the ear and edited the whole head form. Also worked a bit on the nose and the position of the eyes, improved the cheecks and stuff.
I also made a short quicktime video that shows the whole head rotating, would be great if some of you could download it and say me what you think (~1.28 MB, Quicktime *.mov format), and if there are still proportion bugs.

maxmare: Tried to edid the neck according to your pic, but not that much as you did, but quite ;)
celezionka: Well I liked to give give her some cheeks and not that streched as they are normally so that she isn't too bony looking in her face. Anyway I redid them according to your critics and made them more inconspicuous.
Aerestis: Hehe right stuff! Will keep on working, thanks for the nice words anyway ;)
The rest: Thanks a lot, too.

Greetings, cANt
