Na'vi (Avatar) 1/4 Head Critique

Sep 7, 2023

    1. This is a sculpt for a Na'vi 1/4 doll. I am making it to go on a doll chateau kid body. The character is kinda gender-fluid so my features are not highly fem or masc. This head will be a face plate if I can manage the cut.
      For critique, I am looking for workable advice or comments on the features. Like is it Na'vi enough, maybe a bigger chin/cheekbones, or should the "skull" be larger for wig reasons?

      I am a novice sculptor only having 2 small ooak heads in polymer clay under my belt.
      As a WIP I know some of its basic issues, like the eyes that are the roughets. They are to be sculpted once the head is hollowed. The lips need a bit more finessing. Ear will come later, they are gonna be attachable, just imagine them at brow/eye height.

      I always get stuck at the midpoint of these projects SO any basic advice is best to get me going again! Prompts: What do you dislike about it, what works for it, and do you see a feature to focus on that I missed?

      BTW aside: Naytiri is the best Na'vi reference but her eyes are way bigger than what I am going for. This is not a character look-alike just a species one.

      Thank you for any comments! :D:chibi:celebrate
