Assignment 08: Final Project

Going into this assignment was much nicer than doing the last simply because I now knew what I was doing. I used the polypaint tool to line up the model with the reference photos from the very beginning. The biggest challenge to overcome was really just the fact that I could line up the project with one reference photo perfectly, but then run into problems with another that made it seem almost as if his head was an impossible shape. Aside from that I had to move the eyes around a lot, specifically forward to try and achieve the wide-eyed look Danny Pudi usually has. These wide eyes actually also made it impossible for my to use the "outer eye" subtool as they were actually too small and the edges could be seen on the eyeball. The polypaint was also easier this time around, because the lighting wasn't so strong in my reference photo.
