Default 3D self-portrait

Decided to take a break from the challenge to gather my thoughts. I started a 3D portrait of myself to help me learn NURBS. Philip's tutorials have been a godsend. Here is what I have so far. Be warned this is my second head ever and my first one was a horrible failed attempt so it prolly won't be that great. Hopefully I can finish it after the challenge and add UVs, hair, etc.

nice start, although we don't know if it looks like you because we don't have an photo to compare with.

maybe post a photo from yourself ( i know most people don't like to post photo's from themself, so if you don't want it, don't do it )

My heads proportions are pretty much perfect from the side but I have had trouble getting a shot from the front that will work due to the camera being too close to my head it is distorted. I will take another picture later.
