Harle 3D mesh
« on: July 22, 2013, 11:56:28 am »
So I've recently decided to put some new anime head modeling strategies I've learned to the test and I'm just very impressed at how simpler it is to control the topology and how better it looks compared to my past work. Here's roughly 1-2 hours of work done last night

Wow this looks amazing!  :o

Awesome stuff. I can't do anything modeling wise myself.

Tonight's update! I had began her hat but the geometry was a disaster so I rewound to this point. Apparently the topology is so spot on, Facebook thinks this is a real face and prompts me to tag it.

Nice! But you don't need to make your eyebrows and eyelids THAT sharp. XD It has to be subtle, because that's where the textures go!

I'm sure making the hat won't be easy, but it'll be worth it. Good luck!

As well, her lips could use a bit more fullness. If you want to still keep her mouth small, you could have the 'smile' be part of her makeup, not her actual face, and have her lips in a bit of a puckered, or maybe pursed, sort of shape.

Either way, i does look like you're going to have something good out of this. I hope it goes well for you.

 :wink:

Tip: Try modelling with Subdivision Surface modifier on. This way, you'll not only learn to economize on your actual poly-count, as well as smoothing the model in general and learning where sharpness and curves may be required, but you'll also have the model looking great by the end.

I'm putting this on hold for now. I triangulated the lips and it's too much damage to the geometry of the head to undo. In the meantime I decided to try again with Washu from Tenchi Muyo since I have some settei of her already around. I had originally decided to try myself and form the head shape from teenage Bulma settei, but I can't find any of that either!

Heads and faces are the hardest part to get right. Can you send me the model to look at the wires? But so far is looking good.

Also I never triangulate anymore, seems to cause more headaches then fixes things.

Any format works on my end.
