I need to make an old man character for a short that I’m developing and I’m looking for any advice or tutorials on making good characters. I’m looking for somewhat realistic, leaning towards charicature-style work, such as Geri, the old man from the Pixar short with him playing chess. The tutes wouldn’t need to be blender; I think I know enough know to just focus on theory and technique.

Thanks a lot!

I hope this helps, it’s a wireframe of Geri from a book I’ve got. It really is an excellent model with some great detail.
