Looking for accurate sculpting advice.
How do you determine the placement of the Medial and Lateral Canthus?
Most tutorials just show the basic head sculpt (which looks great!) for avatar creation or head sculps, but I am curious what procedure to use in accurate following curvature of the eye to determine placement of the Canthus.
For accurate portrait likenesses.
That is a very interesting question, and basically depends on who you are modeling and the shape of their eyes. One thing to remember is that the “eyeball” is NOT a ball, its more of a nubbin or pod shape and as such will deform the lids and surrounding areas depending on where the persons eyes are pointed, these are tiny changes that are hard to notice for the most part so accurate placement would be dependent on a lot of factors such as age, race, emotion etc.
Good luck and if you find a way of doing that precisely please post it.
Cheers!
