Hi folks, I've been working on a new version of my head tutorial lately, and it's finished :) . For now, it's in french only but don't worry, an english version will come as soon as possible . So if you speak french, have a look at it and send me your comments ! If you don't, i'll send a message here when the english version is available . litst litst@chez.com http://www.chez.com/litst

Wowww! I can make cartoon heads in the metaballs modeler but yours is incredible. I'm still intimidated by the mesh/vertex modeler. From the looks of your sample, your tutorial should be required reading for every Carrara user. I expect to upgrade from RDS to Carrara in March and I'll look for the tutorial then. Thanks in advance, Jim Z. a.k.a. Julian Boolean

You rock litst! I'm still waiting for that Carrara book from you. Very nice head. I can't even begin to model organic things like you can. But you're helping me to get a start on it. Peace kaom

Thanks for your comments, guys . Jim, actually most of the techniques i describe in the tutorial are usable in RDS's mesh form modeler . There are three other tutorials in french on the page i'm linking to . Again, they're waiting to be translated, only one of them is, right now . Now i'm gonna translate the head one . I'll keep you updated . litst

Bless you, litst! While I can't read French at all (nor speak it, actually), I decided to check the site out. It's similar to your original head instructions (which I was unfortunately unable to follow successfully) but it looks like you added a lot more detail. As soon as it's translated, I'm going to pour over that tutorial until I can get a head that looks halfway decent. Your character modelling in Carrara is uncanny! It's amazing that you are able to get such detailed character models from this program. I'm still relegated to interiors and other "non-organic" looking objects. Thank you. - mfortunato

Hi Mfortunato, I hope my tutorial will make you wanna try organic modeling :) ! I've had a look at my first tutorial yesterday and realized how much things were missing ! Now it's finally complete, i've put all the techniques i know in it . Well, almost ;) I've translated 4 pages on 8 right now . It shouldn't take long ...
