Hello,
i have a question abour reference pictures for models. For example if i want to model a head or something like that i´d need some good pictures of a human head. Since this is not the only thing i want to model i´m not able to do make the pctures all by myself. Is there any free database for gamedevelopers available. Because all free picture databases i´ve found were too "artistic".
Best greetings,
Thracian

Thracian:

There are a few sites like:
http://www.the-blueprints.com/index.php?blueprints/humans/humans/

But I strongly recommend to practice drawing your own reference pictures. It teaches so much about the object. You learn the terrain of a face very good when you try to sketch it first. It even helps to get an idea of a good polygon-flow.

Just modelling from a sketch is a start but will not lead to professional models.

I wish you fun and much success!

Regards,
Frank

A very nice site, but i have one question: It is probably not legal to use them in commercial games, i guess , but whom have i to ask?

If it's a reference picture you don't have to worry about it. Because you don't actually use it in the game. You just use your own model created from those references
