Also... Add to my comments in the other thread. Look carefully at the lower lips blend into the face on the outside 3/4 of both sides. It should flow more gently into the face.

Shag Hair?

I dont know it, because Im not a max person, but thats all I know that max has.

[walee]

you should definitly aim for the shag hair solution .... I think it's the only way to achieve a realistic result like the one you want to have. or you can wait for Shave and Haircut for max (but since no release date as been set, i think you should rely on shag hair)

[ivo D]

shag hair hhm.. i tryd it once.. but do you know a good tut.. or can you wexplain it.. caus for one thing i came uppon was that i could ad a material to the hair.. just colour:(:(

[KurtBoutilier]

Looking great mate..... Looking forward to seeing it delvelope...

[eddy-3ddy]

Hair idea:

Make some "slagroom toefjes" and texture it with lines. Just an idea!:thumbsup:

[ivo D]

as you suggested..adjusted the mouth..let it flow into the face more.. in the corners..also adjusted the ears.. but those screens will come up soon

[eddy-3ddy]

U use max, why you don't use the new modifier symmetry?

[ivo D]

hehe .. :D dont know.. , i know its in..use it sometimes.. dont know just dont now.. lol.. :)

mee with my attitude:bounce: .. i would like to say oldschool men.. lol..but uh.. im maxin for little more than a year wmehehehe:surprised

[ivo D]

this is the whire till now.. no tri's involved..so a good clean mesh after all ;)

[eddy-3ddy]

Then I would say, not bad!!!:thumbsup:

Very good wire, no comment about that!

[ivo D]

Do you have a 3/4 images of yourself for reference? The cheakbone seems a bit undefined, or unrounded, depending on how much fat is or isnt there. I suspect the outer corner of the brows are too far forward as well

[ivo D]

maybe i dont know.. take a look.. i can use any help :)

[ivo D]

and here the forhead..but its totally.. the same as the ref

[ivo D]

well .. i uvw mapped the head.. you see it in thin lines.. and done the eye balls today ..

maybe ill adjust the head at someparts still doubting..allready tweaked a lot.. ill put up a screen of the full edited head..tomorrow

[RichSuchy]

you might want to raise the resolution of those maps! what are they at now?

the thickness of the lid is too thin, get a mirror for your desk and check that out for yourself

[ivo D]

oops.. yep your right..put my eye way to much to the front..

and the hdri maps are high res.. but i put don the rgb level output.. caus else they are to shiny.just wanted a subtile realism look..but ill see thx!:D

[ivo D]

well little update.. im busy with the difuse mapping ,still to dark.. havent done ears and forhead..but well..

ill work on it againt tomorow ;-)

[LIMBAUL_ABIGGOR]

[ivo D]

nope.. just posted.. here.. its max not xsi.. but it need lots of work.. :)

[RichSuchy]

judging from this pic and your reference photos, I think your nose needs to be a little more angular at the tip. You seem to have an indent when looking from the front.

Keep up the good work man. It's looking nice

[ivo D]

thx.,..yes i have a dent there..splitting the bottom of my nose a little..thick ill ad that ..and edit my uvw a little..

and yoshua..thx for the shag tuts..the last one is on 3d total.. in the tut gall.. joan or arc tut:)

but ill have to make much more advanced hair..will be a pain in the ass.. but first..ill texture the head.. will carry on tonight..just got home from my weekend job at a rock cafe..pff 6:30 in the morning now.. have to sleep..so ill model,texture on tonight:D..

but if anyone has some advanced info on shag..plz post orm write some documentiary

[ivo D]

litte update..skin collor and corrections.. little bump .. still have to do the lip bump.. and make a specular map.. and gonna throw in some hdri.. , have to do the tearducts etc.. well this is it for now..

at the end ill do the little model tweaks.. yep at the end.. it wont mess up the texture..theyr to little:D

[eddy-3ddy]

Nice, no comment here!

Go on!:applause:

[ivo D]

ill do some spec..tonight.. and do the stuff for the eye socket.. lots to do.. :)

[ivo D]

well did some eye stuff today...and added another bump.... so i have 2 in ther now.. + specular.. now ill hdri the skin.. sometime this week.. still the eyes suck.. have to do something about that but what.. , and i made myself cry .. allmost.. you see in the render..caus i was so frustrated when mapping aarg!!.. think you all know that feeling (we all get that i supose ):wip: :shrug:

[eddy-3ddy]

the cry line... make it thinner I think

and those eyelids (oogleden), can you tweak it more? Or it's because it's has no eye lashes, it's looking wierd.
