Blender freezes on skin modifier

Hi Guys!
I’ve pratically told everything in the thread title,everytime i try to activate the skin modifier the software freezes (as in the image below) and i have to try close it with ctrl+alt+canc

Any suggestion on how to resolve??


Correct me if I’m wrong, but from the looks of it you’re trying to add a Skin modifier to the mesh of that character’s face? The Skin modifier is meant to create very simple forms from even simpler, linear geometry.

What exactly are you trying to achieve by adding that modifier to a mesh as complex as that person’s face? I tend to say that Blender is freezing in that case is perfectly logical.
