setting up the reference and drawing the lines

next i imported the image from photoshop to 3ds max, and put it onto a plane to be used as a reference image



then i drew lines a round the topology and converted them into an editable poly

Starting off

First things first I decided to line up my face and head in photoshop. Getting it ready to have the topology drawn all over it, I used the ruler tool to match up all my features as precisely as possible, so that my eyes ears nose mouth and chin were all in line with each other




Here is the topology drawn all over my head, ready to be put into 3ds max

First Impressions

I'm looking forward to starting this project and getting it underway as soon as possible.

I have many ideas on how im going to model my face. I will be using the tutorials and many other online resources aswell as previous experience i have with 3D modelling.

I obtained a good grade last year in modelling and hope to do the same if not do better in this module.
