3D person

[bowlr]

I see lots of good models of people in the warehouse, is there a tutorial on drawing a 3D person?

There are some Justin Chin´s tutorials on building a 3D character in SU: http://www.giantmonster.tv/giant/?p=396
And some great examples of cartoon character modeling using SDS plugin (Artisan):

I'm afraid not, because drawing a person in SU is pretty difficult...at least if you want to create one with a usable number of polygons. You also need to be able to draw a person with pencil and paper if you're even going to reach first base.
Almost all of the 'decent' human figures in the 3D Warehouse have been drawn in some other software...probably 3DS Max...then imported. Some have simply been pulled in from commercial collections or are imported Poser figures.

That's not to say it can't be done in SU; I've made hundreds myself, like the ones below...but explaining how would take an entire book.

Edit: ...other than Justin's blog...which I forgot about. I use an almost identical technique, but I don't think he goes into detail about how to make hands, faces, hair etc. which would require whole other sections each.
