Female head

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.

She is missing some ears... Just kidding.

I think that she is looking pretty good so far. The main areas that I would be concerned with is the chin, which just looks a little small, and the neck which is way too thick. The corners of the mouth also look a little odd - I would try to get the bottom lip to slip under the top lip at the corner. Your edge loops might need a little work as well, but I am no expert on that, so you might wait for some more input.

Good work though! user added image

Dont put yourself down, you are off to a great start, good loops etc. A couple in place that could be re directed but nothing of any harm so...

If you are stuck, be more specific in what way. Heads are NOT easy by any means

It looks like a really good start but you need to take a look at some human heads and notice the bone structure around the cheeks and the jaw and the sides of the forehead. Also, notice that most women have slender necks that don't have developed trapezius muscles (shoulder muscles). Your model's neck seems to flare out where it will meet the shoulders.

Nice work so far!

Velusion -> You are right, I have to look at some human headbones but when I do, I cant really see the bones clear.
