I have a self portrait of my head and pictures from front and side view that I used as reference images. I need a tutorial that will tell me how to apply these 2 pictures to the model as a texture. Thanks in advance. :)

That won't work properly....(for HIGH-RES-MODELS!)

You have to get rid of the highlights and shadows that are in the photos.....maybe you should start with your bump map and then go on to your color-, spec- and other maps....

Its it's really a lot of work getting your photos on your head, since you will have to totally rework them to fit on your model....
also keep in mind that your photos have been litten (?) before, you will probably have to make the hole thing a little bit darker, since it will be litten by your scene-lights AGAIN.......

hope this helps
