When i started this model i didnt think i would succeed as it was my first attempt using vertex tools, i started with the right eye as Rich suggests in his tutorial video, progress was slow at first but as i went along it got faster and all fell together quicker than i imagined , over all i would say it took me approx 4 hrs to model, I found myself deleting more often than i should and manually fixing some parts, did i make mistakes, yes i did, and i feel if i were to do another i would do better, as i mentioned i didnt think i would succeed but vertex tools is so easy to pick up and very fun to play around with, i would like to make some more changes to this Alien and possibly add a body.

Im not the best when it comes to UV mapping, im only learning roadkill at present so eventually ill come back to this model and give it more realistic skin, eyes and so on.

I strongly recommend purchasing Vertex tools, its a tool long awaited in sketchup, its a must have and i thank TT for bringing it to light and Rich for the fantastic tutorial on his version of the alien head

Well done, although he looks like he is about to cry

that's cuz he is one of those wimpy touchy-feely koom-bay-yah "we are the World" aliens from Close Encounters. Give me a terrorizing menacing flesh-eating brain zombie alien any day!

Lol, vanilla icecream, maybe that's what we should call it, ha ha, cheers mitcorb, still a few more touches to be done on it before he's finished, I would like to add some sort of ear sockets and ridges on the neck and nose, maybe try and give it a more menacing look, he did look a little depressed at the beginning.
