the wrinkes on the forehead appear too wide.

 

Based on the darkness around the eyes (not the makeup), and the wrinkles around the mouth, she must be a smoker.

 

Perhaps she has no hair, having just gone thru Chemo for the lung cancer (and that's why she's wearing the beret/hat).

 

This is nice modeling in all, post more

They are. I'll adjust them once I get the hair figured out.

 

looks interesting. is it for another star wars project?

No this is for a non SW project,.

 

As far as SW goes, I uploaded all my models from my Immortal project for the extra II DVD.

 

I'll post more here as this project comes along.

I agree the wrinkles don't look quite right.

 

I would expect wrinkles to have a cross-section more like a) than b )

maybe all it needs is tweaking your map in a paint program ("curve adjustment") to get a narrower valley and steeper walls.

 

Somewhere around here there's a great tut on face texturing by WIlliam Sutton.

personaly i think the lips are to big, and i really don't like the eyes(unless shes chinese
)

 

I rotoscoped an asian face. I used a close up from the yellow series and then a generic old lady for the wrinkles.

 

Once I'm off work tomorrow, I'll add eyes and repost it with the eyes open and fix the forhead.

asians tend not to age so much.. until very old... just an observation. Otherwise, I think too much wrinkling... But that's not to say it doesn't match YOUR character... It's just "over the top" aging from MY perspective.

A bit of a cheat or a quick way to do wrinkle maps is to use the high-pass filter in Photoshop.

 

Draw simple thin lines for the wrinkles then run the high pass filter... tweak the settings. Then use levels or curves to darken or lighten the effect.

 

If the lines are too thick or too thin in the first step... use the Maximum or Minimum filter to thicken or thin the lines.

 

I love the high pass filter... I use that thing all the time.
