Just an update on the model. I took most people's advice and decided to lower the forehead somewhat. I think it looks better, but I hope you guys can confirm this for me.

I also toned that intense look down a bit, and decided to rather use it as a facial expression later on. I want a pretty emotionless base head.

I spent much of the past 2 weeks trying to understand this whole "manually wrapping the head" UV technique. Tonight, I finally understood it all, so tomorrow I will FINALLY be able to start the texturing process.

C'ya

Looks very cool!

I think he might feel better with some better eye lashes.

Lowering of the forehead makes it look a lot better.

Keep up the excellent work.
