lol, he may be bald so far but he is the best head model I have made so far. I made the nose, then the eye area with main cheek structures then joined them and filled in the other verticies as necessary. What do you think? (I wish he was done, lol)
I need some help with making a mouth, anyone have a good tutorial?
One good tutorial is linked from Blender 3D.org… and it links to these forums… You can try looking for “A better face tutorial” on these forums…
Also… here’s how I modeled Kobayahi’s mouth (based off of my Shintaro Model, based off of that tutorial)
I hope those screenshots help…

this is fobos’ tutorial about poly-by-poly modelling. it’s german, but you can translate it, or just look at the (self explaining) images.

Keep away from the tris. Chenbaiwan’s model is riddled with them and it makes animating more difficult. As for tutorials on the mouth do a few searches. google is wonderful and so is the elysiun search option. From what I have seen in all mouth tuts - start with a circle around 8 verts or so, shape it into a mouth, and start extruding back. I know that probably doesn’t help but you will see.
Great start so far, I think a thin lipped mouth would fit this character well.
I don’t know… in spite of the tris… the animation doesn’t feel all too rough. mesh I based this off of was designed to animate well… it certainly molds well.

Ay… I made the mouth and inside of the mouth… two seperate objects… but I’m going for more of a cartoony effect…

HEY! My models not riddled with tris!..there are only like… well ok… ALOT… but still … even if there are…those tris can easily be made into quads… I’m just lazy…
Though Don’t tris make decent fabric and facial wrinkles?
ok, update, he’s not really a geek anymore, but I seem to like him as a sofisticated “coffee drinker”
What do you guys think, White guy or black guy? (no racism intended in this, just want to know which looks better on him 
)
