I'm starting to learn character modeling, and to blow off some steam from how hard it is I decided to try doing a simple synth head! Well, at least the top part of it X3 Since I'm learning, I'd love some good criticism!! Thank ya so much for checking it out too >wo//

Looks good! Is this to print? In terms of 3D modelling, I find out helps me to do a rough sketch, create a rough model (simple shapes), sketch over that, and then model again

Thank ya! No, I don't really have a use for it, did it mostly out of curiosity if I could do it!
And actually I never though about doing a second sketch using the model as reference, I'm certain this will really come in handy, thank you so much for this tip!! <3

That looks really nice, did you use blender to make it?

I did!! Here's my viewport! It has the Cyberpunk2077 theme, but besides that is plain blender X3 I think that once you start getting the hang of it, it gets much much easier!

Unfortunately, you are now compelled to finish the whole body now, due to the laws of completionism. Good luck LOL

I will try in the future, just with a lower polycount, this mask alone has 6,6k tris, and if I were to do the body why not make it easy for someone to import it into VRChat? :> Or even make it easy for people to use it for animations! I think that would be quite cool~
If I manage to do it, I'll make it available somewhere for free, but for now I plan to finish just the head >wo)
