Black Hobo Character

sugunwar

Hey guys, here is my second hobo character.

I have a problem with head, I don't do black man before and I have a problem with a base shape...doesnt look fine
I need average face about 40 years old. Maybe someone could give me advice

I think it's enough for base normal map. Additional normals wrinkles and pores I'll make on texture stage. Just want to try new way

Oh hi, here are my two cents.
I think maybe you have the lower part of his head is jutting out to much. Remember, when doing something new to you, use reference!.
This here is reference of a rather good looking man, but take a look at how his forehead is actually more forward then his cheekbown

Second thing is the ears, They're probably a little bit too low
Thirdly, I don't think the way his nose breaks the flow of the labial folds looks natural, maybe try more of a "c" shape to the fold, like https://notthatthis.files.wordpress.com/2012/12/django-jackson.jpg.

Otherwise, looking good man.

I agree with oreoorbitz - the forehead seems to not jut out enough. I would also add that the nose seems to be too big and exaggerated.

Nice work, I'd paint some red in the eyes, the whites of eyes are never completely white, I also think the line where the dark skin meets the lighter on the hands looks too sharp.
