            Thanks Oli.

            I have a super secret Plugin that Thomas wrote for me that allows my model to overlap the toolbars, any other programs and the wall space behind the monitor as well... πŸ’š

            Actually I just did a screen grab of my monitor with the color background and saved it. I then exported my images with Thomas' Export 2d with Alpha plugin then mashed them up in Photoshop.

            It is an old trick I picked up from Ivica years ago.

                like the face modelling. How did you approach it? Use a model or referenc picture? Just went at it? very clean modeling. What plugins did you use?

                    Funny liam.

                    pbacot, thanks.
                    I used a 3DS Max training file as reference in making the face. Focusing of course only on the area I wanted. I blocked it out much like you see here then ran Artisan's Subdivide and Smooth for a couple iterations. After that I just started playing with shapes, extrusions etc. Another couple tools I have been utilizing (practicing with) are Selection Tools and Vertex Tools.

                      Do you have an image of the head when you had finished blocking out and then proceeded to use SD&S?

                        No but I got it to look pretty close to the one in the above image, bottom right, without the ears, mouth, neck or back of the head (triangulated of course).

                            Not too bad. Just a bunch of stitching and manipulating vertices. Plus I only had to do half πŸ˜„

                              There are a bunch of videos out there but this one helped me as well. Using Vertex tools it makes it much less painful.

                                  I had some time to play a bit with this the past couple weeks or so. Just now getting around to saving images. Not sure really where this is going but it is fun.

                                    I had forgotten all about this one.

                                    Looks good. Sometimes it's just fun top play around.
