Drawing the Topology Template

I then draw out the main lines and curves on my face in blue so that they would show clearly through any other lines I would draw on my face. I then began to draw red lines to make the topology of my face. I started at the eyes and joint all the lines up to make squares throughout my face. I was not allowed to have any triangles in my lines because it would create a pinch in the editable poly later when I am making my face in 3Ds Max.

This was very difficult to do because my face is very individual and no tutorial was specifically for my face. Drawing the lines on my face took about 3 weeks to achieve. The task that proved most difficult was making sure all the squares joint up and that there was no triangles.

I made a very big mistake at first by not making a new layer wen drawing the lines. This meant that I was only allowed to use the history tool to erase lines and not the eraser tool. The picture below shoes how far I got before I realised I should make a new layer.
