Yes, I think polys is easier to start with.
Best you look into some tuts on how to box model a head. It will help you out heaps.
Theres quite a differnt number of ways to model with poly.
Heres two.
https://gamma.nic.fi/~threedim/poly_head.htm
check this out if you want more tuts
https://www.3dbuzz.com/vbforum/showthread.php?t=35647
https://www.learning-maya.com/index.p...arks&Itemid=36
Also, if you do a search in google, or yahoo, for "modeling a head in maya" or even just "modeling a head".
Even if you get a tut in max, on how to model, its exactly the same princeable.

Good luck. dont get to disheartend if you dont get many replys.
Looking forward to seeing your progress.

Cheers
Nick

mate thats a 100% improvment compared to your last.
No real crit, just remember to keep you geometry clean and flowing nicely.
Make sure you got the basic features of the face correct before you add more poly.
Theres nothing worst than have too much poly, and having the proportion out somewhere.
I havent modeled to many characters, so im not the best one to give your crits on you work.
Its looking good. Im glad you started again.

Hey,

Keep it up. I also think this is a better approach than the first version.

The Joan of Arc tutorial is also quite well known. It's for Max, but you can apply the principles to Maya.
