Maya 2020 fundamentals - modelling the real world
Get halfway through a model and find it's an unworkable mess? Can't add edge loops where you need them? Can't subdivide a mesh properly? If any of this sounds familiar check this course out.

- Made the chin to neck distance shorter by pushing the whole face in a bit.
- Reshaped the skull a bit.
- Lifted the mouth a tad up and made the lips a bit sharper.
- Sharpened the eyebrow line some. Remodeled the neck.

Feel free to comment but I'm not going to retouch the model much more since it'll be mostly covered with the helmet anyway...
