I'm trying to develop my skills in modeling a bit and although I have zero art background, sometimes I surprise myself with what a few mouse clicks can do. I am seeking some advice, criticism, direction, etc on this new model I'm working on. What looks bad, what could be done to improve, etc. You know the drill. Anyhow I appreciate any comments you have.
It is not intended to be photoreal. My intent is to be cartoon style.
I am not working with a sketch at all. Only from my mind (that's dangerous) Actually the idea came to me while I was working out of Timothy Albee's book 'Essential Lightwave', and the Head Modeling tutorial by Todd Grimes. I decided I really needed some practice in modeling organic stuff and the wolf seemed like a good idea.
I thought the ears were a bit weird and tried some tweaking, but couldn't put my finger on the problem.
The basic premise behind my character is a story that includes human characters mixed with animal characters that interact with each other in a wilderness adventure.
The eyes are not the final product, but I threw in a couble spheres just for effect. I think once I figure out how to do the brow better I can address that issue also. But I was wondering if you meant the eye sockets?
Here is a the head and a wire of the head so far:
