Default Head Tutorial

I have a question again,

I have used the pen tool to outline my head, I have extruded it out some. Everything looks fine until I rotate it in the perspective view.....the part of the head facing me is wireframe and the back side is shaded? If I switch to smooth shad and rotate the head facing me, the front half disappears and I only see the back half, rotate it around to the back facing me...that disappears and I can see the front?

I would post the pic.....but I dont know how to do a screen capture so I can put it up here.

Thanks in advance for the help

Default

the problem ur having is just to do with the perspective amount. If u wanna fix it go to >Display Options ("d") > Layout. Over here, change the bar that says "Perspective amount" to a little lower (move it toward the left or right, from where it is right now till it suits you. Usually the default works for everything.

to avoid this in the future, try making objects a little larger in size.

Hope this helps...
