Hey everyone! I'm modeling clothes for a character I'm making, and I keep struggling with this issue. I'm talking about a high poly model, for an animation short we're making right now (school project), and there'll be some close ups on that part (the collar of the shirt). The collar is supposed to look a bit like this:…
Nice work. A couple things are bothering me, but only a little. Her eyes seem to be diverging, looking in opposite directions.
