Thank you. I did make it from scratch. I started with a sphere. I really
can't give you any step-by-step descriptions of how I made it, since it took
probably thousands of individual steps. A lot of moving faces out or in,
moving points, splitting faces, merging faces, etc. The ear I modeled away
from the head, so I could see what I was doing. The whole thing took me
several weeks, working an hour or two every day. It was definitely not an
easy task. One good thing about it is that with that basic head already
made, I can take it, and in a comparably short time, make a different
looking face, by changing the shape of the nose, the general width of the
head, size of the eyes, etc. I posted the mdl file in moray.binaries. You
could probably learn a lot by studying the mesh in the mesh edit views.

Steve,
Thanks for the reply. That is enough to get me started. "started with a
sphere", "moving faces out or in, moving points, splitting faces, merging
faces, etc." "ear ... modeled away from the head".
Did you import a photo to use as a guide while you were dragging points and
faces?
Are the left/right sides mirrored, or modeled individually?

The second ear is mirrored. When moving things in or out I used point mode
and selected the corresponding points on both sides and used either scale or
translate to move them in in the desired way.

Thanks again for the info...
"used point mode and selected the corresponding points on both sides and
used either scale or translate to move them in in the desired way." That
makes sense to me!
Did you import a photo to use as a guide?
(almost done asking dumb questions)

I think they are very important questions!
For what it is worth, there are some excellent head tutorials at the
Wings3D, Silo or other sites. They can help with building in Moray, I think.
Some links:

Well, I didn't for the head itself, although, looking back on it, it would
have made it a lot easier. When I got to the ear, which turned out to be the
hardest part, I used a photo as backdrop.

Hi Stefan Persson, you recently wrote in moray.win:

I agree completely and I wish that there were more regular updates,
but the truth is I haven't received any models in the last two years
or so.....
