Title: Anasazi head for eval...
Post by: jwalt on Thu 16/05/2013 00:45:28
I had in mind something that involved an Anasazi male. I'll need to age the face, in three distinct stages: from youth, to adult, to aged. This is meant to fill the youth niche. Feel free to tell me how far I missed the mark. New at this, but fairly thick skinned.

Also, if anyone has seen a tutorial on aging a character, I'd appreciate your sharing it.

There's lots of good pointers in this Mark Crilley You Tube Video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=X_5cLkL-V9g).  The style is not the same as yours, but he's got lots of useful pointers.

DID YOU KNOW: If you remove just two letters in the first word of this thread's title, it gives you "Wham". :D

Mr. Baron, that tutorial proved very useful, or so it seems to me. I now have three faces for my character.

I need to work some more on middle guy's nose, and I'm still open to suggestions about improving him/them.

It looks like they're looking up; in a frontal view, the face should be a bit further down (the eyes halfway down).
It also needs contrast; the faces look like seen through fog.
