I've scanned my face with the David Laser Scanne

How did it worked? I just went on their website... it's interesting. Can you post the original scanning result? Maybe some ideas, opinions about the process?

I posted the workflow here: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=29565

here is the workflow:

equipment:

object (my wife):

first scanrusults:

combination of all scanresult (different directions):

import to sculptris:

smooth the surface:

reduce mesh:

import obj to meshlab export as 3ds

import to SU and smooth surface:

project texture to face:

put head on a body:

put in scene and render:

@Jo-ke -I believe that the texture makes all the deal in your model,otherwise the model will be less detailed .

This is the reason why I'm not not really happy with the result. But it is the best way to give the model the right shape. Working on details is the thing that I hope to improve in the next steps.

I think the mouth is a bit out of proportions..

There are many ways of doing the image to mesh thing, here is a quick Csaba (Gaieus)

Elisei and Solo:
Excellent work!!!
There is so much variation in human anatomy as evidenced by over 5 billion examples as to make any question about small differences moot.
One old rule of thumb from the pencil and paper days was that the height of the ear roughly encompasses the height from brow to end of nose, and top of brow ~ top of ear. [My pencil and paper days are still here].

Great going Eli, lots of detail for eye lashes.

You are going to be king with SDS2, I can feel it.

I cannot wait for y'all to get SDS2, it's so much fun and once you get going you can sculpt anything, here is my devil in progress.

@Elisei:
You left me in the dust. I started a new head with the uv sphere poles rotated as in the tutorial video. I also noticed that the Sketchup uv sphere is more faceted than the Maya starting sphere.
Not to nitpick, but the eyelids seem thin?

[solo]

If anyone else wants to play and has SDS1, here is a basic female head proxy, add to features and detail as you feel, this is so you can get an idea of how to set up a very basic proxy.
