This is a character Im making for an animation, her names Freye. I'm still trying to learn how to use edgeloop modelling for animation, and I think im getting a bit better from last time (edge loop post). Now Im moving from a male character with pronounced details to a female character thats much smoother, but with the same edge loop modelling to accomodate for animation. Ive also been reading "Stop Staring" by Jason Osipia for facial animation for help with the head. Modelling a head for animation is incredibly hard but fun.

She is not in realistic proportions like my last male model, but things can still look off about it, so I need your help to see if anything dosent fit.








Tell me what you think

she uhhhh looks a bit excited there no but it looks nice, i like the not-quite-but-almost anime look

I am not sure if it´s a boy or a girl, without the body. NO, what I mean is, without the body it looks like a boy. BEcause she has no "wimpern" (these hairs around the eyes), and some forms on her head like her jaw are too straight instead of round, but I think teh second point is the smaller problem. Point 2 makes her look a little mean (like a witch or something). Well the corner of the jaw should be lower. It´s in the high of the mouth if you see the face frontal. That makes the long straight which doesn´t need to be that straight, espacially for a girl.

i like teh body, but i dont ike the head. in fact, the head is ugly, not from a modeling point of view, but if a chick that looks like this wants me, ill start laughing...

oh and the heads too big...

but teh bodys cool!

i like the face... especially the nose and the lips area look good.
i guess u are heading into a manga-style character. if so, i would exaggerate the body proportions a little bit. or else it looks like a manga head stitched on a real body.
i also think that u could scale the head a lil' bit down. i know anime chars have big heads, but i think it would look better when the head is smaller.

keep up the good work.

This character looks like it is heavily inspired by the Joan of Arc tutorials out there

I like the cartoony look of it jumpman !!
The face and hair really make it a special character for an RPG kind of game ^^
I'm curious what the skinned version will look like

Cheers

hey... now I remember! Jumpman... YOu made this game with the big breasted girl in the mario like blue trousers very long time ago. What happened to that game? If I remember right I like the chick of that old game much more as this one. But that´s just my opinion.

And yeah, as spike said, the head is too big and not realy cute. Looks like a witch. I don´t say that because I don´t like you, I say that, because I think you can do that better if you like.

And please no manga/anime style! This makes me crazy!

hmmm...i have to agree with spike, if you want her to look anime style, shrink her head a bit, or make her body a little bigger, and i suggest looking at anime character designs, look at some female anatomy pics (not hentai -_-'), you can get pics like this from ghost in the shell and other animes, if your not going for anime style, then shrink the head even more, and do some touch ups on it. either way the head and face needs a little bit done to it

Well, he could also make the head even bigger ... It would still be manga style, but just chibi-style, you know, with the big heads hehehe.

Cheers
