I think you should finish this a bit more, it's so unfinished it's hard to say. I suggest you embed it in the forum or at least post some screengrabs. It's got potential.
What anatomy reference are you using?

lukiszlak · Mar 2014

i always search for anatomy references in google graphics and find what i need(i hate to search it on pinterest) And about that character the one thing that i can finish there is head and then i dont know what to do next.

Its wildly out of proportion and has no hands, fix those and get some really good anatomical reference. This is ok [ame="http://www.amazon.com/Anatomy-Artist-Sarah-Simblet/dp/078948045X"]Anatomy for the Artist: Sarah Simblet, John Davis: 0635517080452: Amazon.com: Books[/ame] you can get better sources, google loomis, goldfinger, hogarth etc.

Thanks for it but i wanted it to be "shorten" and the hands need to be like penguin hands

I will check this book when i have money. I will try with loomis etc

Do you have any good tips on face?

The human body is a very complex combination of shapes. You would probably do yourself a favor by going back and really study those fundamentals and basics before jumping on something like this.

Took me a long time to get decent, look at skulls, facial muscles and try building up shapes with clay tubes. While you are learning avoid exaggerated and cartoon characters, there's too much temptation to lie to yourself and say "I wanted it to look like that" or settle on something you've made rather than working from reference and going for accuracy. Try the library for anatomy books.

Ok so i'll try to do some basic's.
At first i've tried to do face from reference images

Its still a w.i.p. but if there is a some simple mistakes then help me

Do you mind just posting IMGs of your work as well, just in case p3D chugs on other people's computers?

I didnt think of that But done

Your mesh density is too high too quick.
Take it down a few subdivisions and mass in the major forms first. Keep it blocky till all the major bits are in place, then subdivide. Block in at that level, rinse repeat. It may help to make a blurred or posterized copy of your reference so you don't get distracted by details until you need them.

This is what we mean by "major bits."

The Planes of the Face.

Get that head sculpted first before you do any detailing or personalization.

Ok i'm back (i would love to say it's not a pop up and then gone)
I've done a few tries at the chest anatomy and here's the results

also tried do the face but it's ekhem ugly.

I cant really understand the shape of the face even with the planes of it but It's too complicated for me right now. Do you think maybe trying do do separate pieces like eyes mouth nose will help me with it?
Also im waiting for a lot of critiques
