Hey all,
I'll start posting my work on these forums, as Jekyll has been. This is my first 'true' contribution to Beach-head.
Although I would have preferred getting more done earlier, it seems getting back into the groove of 'head modeling' is not quite so easy. After an intense year of... not doing much, I really had to read up on topology again.
I am hoping to have updates on a 2-3 day basis if I can. I really don't promise anything, because I'm first of all slow and easily dragged into family activities.
(The cookie I'm making on the side is moving slowly too, since these last few days I've really just been reading and practicing modeling techniques. I might post an update soon though)

I know what it is to be slow. Unless I'm really into something, whatever I'm doing just seems to drag on forever.

Hmm... Update.
I've just moved verticies around, to get a more feminine-like look. What do you think? Should I move on to the eyes (which I will in a moment), or do you think the older look was better, a mix between the two?

Good work. Keep both, can have young and older pilots. older pilots for the dropships and valkyries, young for the wraith or copilots. shrug.

Jekyll: By older I meant the 'previous' version, but that idea sounds good too.
Darth: Yes, well, they were both unrealistic methinks.
I've come to notice a couple of things: It is a good idea to make an outline of the eyes first, or at least have them positioned, or the rest of your face might end up weird.
I'm learning things the hard way, since this is my first real -go- in a while. I'm not especially keen about the face so far, but it's helping me out in other ways that will make things easier later.
Update: Yes I know, twice in a day. So I lied, so what 
The eyes aren't really that good yet. I had a lot of trouble with them, and am still not very happy. I will keep working on them and try to figure out the realistic approach.
Second face is the latest. The first one is just 10 minutes older and appears to be perplexed. Thought it would be a nice addition.

She looks almost pissed. Methinks she looked better before eyes.
