Lets face it

No character is complete without a nice looking face. I have gone through a million faces with this guy and guess what, I am still undecided on which one to use... maybe I'll have to wait until I get use to one.


Here are some of my thoughts:

A pair of eyes are a must in any character. This can show where he is looking at and the feelings he's um.. feeling. Theres probably more to it but I can't think of anything else at the moment.

A Mouth is just as important. It can show the mood of the character, the movement as he's speaking, kissing, eating, and somewhere to use his electric tooth brush (if and when he gets one)

The next thing I might add to him are some hairs, probably only on the head. We'll see.

You could always try a pair of specks and or maybe a nose. It really depends on the type of personality your trying to get. for example If he's a quiet type, could either have a very small mouth or no mouth like some one had suggested earlier. Or of he's nosy, he should sport a large nose of some type. Some good places to be inspired are your friends. What are their personalities like? Just get in the habit of spotting details that interest you.

Nice blog btw. ;)
