About 7 hours of work from 12am to 7am (project due at 9:30am) from start (0 quads) to finished (2087 quads and 1 1024x1024 .tga texture, most of which wasnt used. Note each eyeball is ilke... 340 tris)

This is a caricature, so it is meant to be out of proportion- was part of the project requirements Head had to be < 2500 quads and the eyes could be 340 tri's max.





and the UV


Texture work was all done by hand aside from the eyebrows, which I nabbed of a picture from my PC

good thing there wasnt a requirement for your texture size

but anyways great model the only thing id comment on is the nose looks somewhat strange and maybe tad to large of nostrils. even if it is a caricature it looks like his boogers would be the size of gum drops! I do like the curves on his forehead will you add a normal map to bring those out(in your free time since you probaly already turned in the project)

Alucard - I'm sure I've got a few years of experience on you, and I pay a truckload of money to be taught by industry professionals Stick with it man, no way to get better other than practice!

Ben - Yeah I know about the nostrils, they were enlarged by the latices I used to make the caricature, but yea, they are quite large (and unshaded, which makes them appear even larger)

Omega - Thanks!

Blood of the Prophets - I know, right

What do you model in by the way? 3DS Max?

I'm starting to use blender but at the minute, but I can only make a ginger bread man

Ok i read the sig, maya's a cool tool but i thought it was bit expensive for me.

the edges, faces, tris, and uvs counter was a dead give away. It just has that look max just says faces then fps i think.

Yeah I wasnt too concerned with the tri count I misread the instructions, I thought it said 2500 faces, it said 2500 tris. WHOOPS!
