I have been trying to learn the anatomy of the head and neck. This is my latest sculpt. Before I subdivide I was hoping to get some feedback on the proportions and anatomy. Thanks.
I'm not sure I've ever seen anybody with such a low jaw. The distance between the curve of the jaw and the ear seems extreme. I wonder if the entire lower face is just too pronounced.
The area under the nose between the mouth should normally have a slight concavity viewed from the side.
I'm not familiar with the app, but I'd recommend starting over and using photo reference/3d scan reference in conjunction with 3d anatomical visualizations. Also be wary of your overall mesh density. It looks like you're getting too high in your subdivisions before adequately defining forms.
Thanks for the reply. As far as mesh density, I tried to go as far as I could with a lower density mesh. I found it difficult to get the detailed shapes in the ear, nose eye and mouth area without going to this remeshed resolution. This was practice while captive in an airplane or airport so I wanted to get to some detailed features. I think I have to work on proportions. I feel like I'm hitting the main anatomical structures but it's still out of wack.
As you can see there are a lot of things either missing or not quite right so keep learning , get a hand hold or what ever mirror you can find and start learning
Thanks for taking the time to post. Right now I'm reading Scott Spencer's 'Digital Sculpting Human Anatomy' and Stephen Peck's 'Atlas of the Human Anatomy for the Artist'. And I use those as reference. There is so much information in there and so much to learn.
