here is another view...btw, this character is gonna be Hazel, for all you folks who have seen the movie

well i would just smooth shift the eyes in the spot where it looks like the eyes should go. I am just learning how to model, so I am sure there are many other ways you could go about it.

OH WOW! I loved that film! I saw it when quite young, and went out and read the book... four times. Great commentary on the political and social elements in society. I assume that's Hazel in you sig pic. I saw it in one of your replies and then I found this thread.

How's the model going?

Howdy!

Yep, a great movie. One of my favorites.
Good start on your Hazel model, looking pretty good.

I usually start around the eye area, but in this case I just grabbed a poly in the desired area and started beveling.
After shifting points here, adding polys there, this is what I came up with. Still needs loads of tweaking, but you are welcome to this geometry if you want it.

Keep going, and good luck.
