Very good start ! Try to work more on these heads . I can not see the jaw area . Try to determine more chin area too . Do not make any wrinkles on the head yet . Try to determine its bone and muscle areas first .Look at anatomy books . Dont look only at photos of live ppl but also at anatomy where you can see how those bones and muscles are placed .

As you see from this picture

The head is not so round as you think . But try to find good anatomical references. For me I have bought an aantomy atlas from local store . For example I can show you my WIP before I used anatomy and after

Nice start as always :slight_smile: I can not advice you briefly because I am new to anatomy too :slight_smile: But one thing what is sure is you need to pull your muscles out .

About base mesh

Here is scene files from 3D world magazine issue 105 .
http://www.3dworldmag.com/page/3dworld?entry=3d_world_105_s_sculpting
There you will find two links
One contains organised base mesh of female human . It is fantastic and I think it is just as low poly and organised as it is possible :slight_smile: So the thing is that you just need to copy it many many times and you will learn it :slight_smile: But it is not necessary to just sit and copy it . You may just copy it once adn then sculpt your head or what ewer you want . When you want to start new sculpt copy the base mesh again and so on . At least I do so . How to copy ? You just put polygons as they are in this base mesh . Thats all . :slight_smile:

I made my base mesh by looking at this base mesh . At the first time I was drawing those loops on paper like crazy to remember them :slight_smile: But then I realised this is unnecessary :slight_smile:

Ah and the second link will lead you to the wonderful website where you can find all info about anatomy books , courses and anatomy in whole . I found that link just today because of your request :slight_smile: So thank you .

About my head . Yes it was made in Zbrush apart from base mesh which was done in 3ds max . The first version was full of anatomical mistakes and I got a very big critics from ppl on different forums . Then I took some anatomical references and started almost from the beginning ans the second pic is the final result . Now I am making fine details like pores and wrinkles . Then I will try to polypaint whole this stuff and render it in 3ds max . I have got total war with displacement maps and their nasty seams :slight_smile: It took me about one week to somehow fix main problems .

So if you have any questions about pipeline I will be more than happy to tell you all what I know .

But now it is tome for watching Spiderwick :slight_smile:
By the way do you like BLIZZARD ART or WARHAMMER art ?

This link will lead you directly to the tutorials about sculpting human figures by Scott Eaton http://www.scott-eaton.com/tutorials

I think you know the answer already :slight_smile:

Of course it is good to practice drawing anatomy . As I have said I am studying anatomy myself and I have life drawing courses here in Helsinki twice a week and it really helps me to understand human form better :slight_smile:

Here are few more links for you which I suppose will help you . At least they help me a lot :slight_smile:

Video drawing lessons http://the-structure-of-man.blogspot.com/
However it is not for free but it is worth of it !
You can watch preview of every lesson for free .

Here are very good websites for drawing references . So if you want to draw ppl this is a very good place for finding perfect references :

Male anatomy http://www.human-anatomy-for-artist.com/
Female anatomy http://www.female-anatomy-for-artist.com/

And finally here are some books written by Andrew Loomis http://fineart.sk/index.php?cat=1
These books will help you to understand proportions and so on … :slight_smile:

More questions ?

The face is already a good start, as for the model you should define the muscles a bit more (or model a less muscular body). Go into detailing and work from big to small.
