- Face and head modeling in Blender is easy when you use this topology trick. You can make a wide variety of faces when you use it with proportional editing, multiresolution sculpting, and the shrinkwrap modifier. Rigging works well without retopology too.

I’ve been modeling in Blender for about a year and this approach to making heads/faces is not only the most unique but also the easiest while still being extremely versatile. Excellent video!
I agree
Your cool
I have been using blender for 3 years and this is true but I prefer speed sculpting and then just retopo because I have no life
@@OrangeJani And your results are probably better because of it
True
I never thought modeling faces could be this simple but these methods are so intuitive that after I learned them it felt like something I should have thought of immediately, and I see that as a sign of genius (on the part of the teacher). Well done!
as someone self teaching rn the quantity of tips and tool exposure in this video is bananas, this is easily one i'm going to rewatch dozens of times
I'm a 2D person, and I basically got into Blender just for Grease Pencil. Your channel has already gotten me hooked on Geometry Nodes, but you've also been the first person to ever show me how to make a base for sculpting that actually makes sense for me. Could not recommend your channel more highly.
I've been using Blender for years, and this is probably one of the best facial topology videos I've ever seen - I dare say it'll translate well to artists who are drawing on paper too
I love the fact the thumbnail keeps changing, I'm enjoying the randomness lol
I've looking for face modelling tutorials for a while. I watched sculpting and then retopology, I watched making faces with vertex from scratch. However, this has to be the most amazing tutorial. Very easy to follow, fun to watch and most importantly, after you are done with the basic shape of the cube, you can actually use that as your template.
Thank you so much for this!
Ok I don’t comment on CZcams videos but this was a really good tutorial that actually made me laugh on multiple occasions. The kiss sound was perfectly timed, the existential crisis while lingering on the sad face, and the chad render reveal were perfect. It also has me considering putting facial animations in my game, where I was going to do painted on reactions at first. Great job! Got my sub.
Thanks, Joey. This is a great primer on how edge loops work. YOne of the biggest mistakes I made in my Blender learning journey was not mastering basic box modeling concepts before attempting more ambitious & complex projects. I always ended up with scenes that had too much geometry & bad topology.
My models were too difficult and time consuming to texture, and filling a scene with bad topology will bring even the most powerful computer to its knees. I ended up abandoning many projects for this reason. Understanding basic box modeling and good topology early will speed up your workflow & your learning process. For people who are new to Blender, master these concepts before using the subsurf modifier. This will literally save you years of aggravation.
which resources would you recommend to learn those concepts?
@@Paul-mf7zx I became aware of my modeling deficits when I started to get into animation and sculpting. One phase of the sculpting process is to learn re-topology. It brings your poly count down and, if done right, makes your model easier to animate. It's tedious but instructive.
You can't animate anything successfully that has bad topology. So, start here with Joey Carlino, he has a lot of material on modeling and animating characters, a potentially complex and difficult process that he makes very accessible with his approach. I also learned a lot from Grant Abbitt. He has a wide variety of material on CZcams much of it focused on low-poly modeling. He also has several full-length paid courses focused on skill building. He tends to focus on creating assets for game development, which requires you develop good topology skills.
These days there is a ton of high quality Blender learning material, compared to when I started. There is some great free material, so sample a lot of it but do invest in some full-length paid courses by people whose work & teaching style you like. You will support the community as well as save yourself a lot of time & aggravation by learning a topic from the ground up.
A few things I have learned recently:
Practice on simple things.
Strive for quad based models; Avoid using Ngons, poles & triangles.
While you are practicing, avoid using the subsurf modifier. Learn to use just enough geometry to get the shape you want.
Focus on creating the overall shapes you want before you go into detail.
Delete and start over, esp. if you start banging your head against the wall. Every time you start over, you approach problems from a different perspective.
@@chuctanundaspiderbone5407 thank you a lot for the detailed response, I really appreciate it! 🙏 I’m going to follow your recommendation. Have a great time on your path!
I love the simple, systematic way you make face topology, as well as how one can reshape the face. I'll definitely be using this tutorial as a reference going forward!
This tutorial was amazing. Thank you so much.

Once in a while you come across a legendary game changing video on your Blender journey. This is one of them. Thanks for sharing these tips!
I just discovered box modeling about 2weeks ago. I've completely switched to this method so this has come at such a good time. 😊
After weeks of getting nowhere, I just finished my first not-terribly-awful face because of this video. Very helpful! Eager to try again.
Love your tutorials, you're the reason I first opened blender (your various geometry nodes videos, especially the Lego one, and the skin modifier tutorial, that I used to make my first ever model)
This is incredible. I think I will finally be able to model basic faces!! Something I have always struggled with even though I can model basically anything else! Thank you so much!
This is super comprehensive and easy to follow and the weight of learning retopology feels so much lighter. Like this is an amazing jumping off point for learning topology AS you go. Thanks!
I super appreciate that you actually explain WHY you're doing the cuts and the process behind it instead of "Well, just cut here bevel here cut here."
6:16 to save you some time, you could just enable the "Bisect" option on the mirror modifier, it will essentially delete the faces for you, it can cause some artifacts if you aren't careful with the center line though.
14:53 - You just made the fastest moai face tutorial I've seen 🗿
This has got to be the best formulaic approach to modeling good facial topology I have seen and experienced. Absolute win.
Wow, Wow, Wow!! This is pure gold! BIG THANKS JOEY!!!
I needed to go back for the sake of taking notes and realized you had defined so much of the face after putting putting the loop cuts through the eyes. Wow! Beautiful!
probably one of the most straightforward and easy ways to model a head, not to mention rig it! Your not just a lifesaver your the whole rescue crew!
Honestly, your videos are extremely helpful. I applied all the principles found in this video to a character I'm creating and he's starting to look so much more realistic. Works very well when modeling the chest/abs, too. Thank you!
I've watched at least 15 tutorials on creating heads in Blender, and your video has loads of great techniques and tools that no one else mentioned. Also clear instructions, perfect pacing, and even a few good jokes. Wonderful tutorial!
This actually helped out a lot! I've never really been good at making faces (or heads in general) but this managed to get me to make heads MUCH better!
IN general, studying topology really helps. Doing it over and over again builds a repository in your head. Once you start rigging and identifying aspects of your poses that need work you just start understanding what topology needs to look like at certain areas to get the bends you need.
Thank you for solving my issues with box modelling. I've always been able to visualize in 3D but not topologize so much, this vid was like a solid blast of information I never got in my degree. 🙏
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I've always had a hard time faces so I'll definitely be giving it a try
love your tutorials and how easy you make them to follow, I cant get enough!
This is actually a really good simple and easy to learn method, and it's great for coming up with concepts and emotion study.
after having just spent days on trying to get the face topology of a humanoid squirrel correct... this video is going straight to my "tutorials that saved me" playlist. I could have quartered my time on it with this video! Thanks for sharing :D
This is a really awesome method for making and rigging faces..... I'm currently making some characters for an animation and will definitely use this method for them..... animating the faces was gonna be a bot daunting but this helps make it a bit better.... thanks so much. :)
Fast yet comprehensive, perfect tutorial. Many thanks!
This is the perfect video to get familiar with character modeling. thank you, really!
For a 2d animator experimenting with 3d, this tutorial is gold.
Thank you so much!
The absolute efficiency with which you create nightmares beyond human comprehension is incredibly commendable. I will be taking this method, thank you!
best facial topology video! hands down.
Amazing! So simple. I've been sculpting and retopo'ing for years. I've never considered modeling the correct topology from the start.
I am SO MAD that I didn´t found your channel earlier... all this information that would´ve been life changing and would´ve saved me so much time before.
However, experience is experience and I can combine what I learned before with all the new knowledge you are giving and make my own process. God bless you Joey.
Another banger joey. Cant wait to start making some faces this way!
This is hands down the best face modelling technique/video I have ever seen!
This video just boosted my confidence level in blender. Thank you very much!!!
What a eye opening tutorial. Never would have thought of this method. Excellent idea. Thanks
What a fantastic tutorial. Enough information to add food for thought but not to much to drown a person. Cheers and thanks!
Priceless!! Thank you!
Great templates and process - thank you for putting this together Mr. J.
Joey, I've been following you for about 2 years now and I'd have to say that you probably explain the best within the blender community while keeping humor intact. Your videos always make my eyes pregnant. Thank you.
This is revolutionary to me!
I have been modelling in Blender since 2019 and this is one of the best tutorials I have seen! Thank you, Joey!!!
Thumbnail change leaning to cube face minecraft resemblance is a very nice move, thought about it myself!
Thanks, it's not far from what I start off making in the video. I basically just projected Steve's face onto it to use as reference
I mean, you have a great following on the shared slice of minecraft and blender communities after your quite successful Minecraft related videos so it makes sense.
Nice technique. Best blender tutorial this year. Faces are hard, and it's nice to have an easy technique like this.
dude you are such a genius
Really liked the shrinkwrap technique
freaking genius man i am glad i found you
15:20 At this moment, I cried because of how wonderful and emotional it is😥
Thank you for this! Truly an awesome lession. I'm super eager to try this technique out ❤
So wonderful, you are genius.
Thanks ! It worked a lot for me and I learn a lot of fun stuff with this.
Keep it up.
This Helped Me Make Space Stuff
I feel fortunate for finding this at my very first week using Blender. Thank you!
i am moving along well, wow! Thank You! cheer cheer, bravo bravo! U R BORN TO BLEND. blessings
Learned a TON, thank you so much!
Joey you are a hero man , the most useful tutorial i have ever watched , every easy to understand i was really hopeless to learn how to make character faces thank you so much dude!
never seen a better tutorial for making good top heads. subscribed.
This is wonderful, thank you!
so rad, thank you for making this. this is such a fun tutorial to follow. gonna recommend this to everyone !
When I’m designing I do the duplicate thing as well so I don’t mess up the original and then I can do mini variations as well sometimes I make variations of the variations but nice videos this tutorial helped out with making faces a lot
*Beautiful*
You're a genius, Harry. 🧙♂️ Thanks for this
damnn mann , i always thought character modeling is hard, with your basse i think the world is open for me now.
Wish I found you sooner man... Subscribed! Genius level tutorial, simple, engaging and educational. A Chef's kiss for you Joey
Box modeling is probably the best way to go about it if all you're going to tackle is edge flow for only the front of the face. That knowledge dissected about proper edge flow is the most important thing you could have shared. Thank you. If only it had more screen time to add emphasis on it's importance.
Unfortunately, you still need proper flow for the skull indents and it's temples, the skull's general shape from front and back, ear zone, ear shape, general depth, cheekbones and even the jawbone.
Wow what a great video. So informative and insightful
I just started using blender, and while i suck at making characters at least this video has given me somewhere to start that is easy to follow, thank you for this tutorial.
man this is gold
Buaahhh!! Thank you so much for this!
Thank you. This really helps me.
this helps a lot to my school project, i love using blender and using this will be so usefull
awesome tutorial bro, I usually try to stay away from character modeling since topology is so damn difficult, but with this video I might expand my skill set a bit more!
Amazing! This is so easy to follow. Super video.
Excellent video!
genuinely the only method i've tried (and i've tried many T_T) that gave me good results. thank you so much
This is going to be s game changer for me... thank you!
Finally, thank you so much
Awesome method. I loved it!
brilliant!!! great tutorial!
I learn blender for 5 year and I tried to find a way to model head in few minute ...
your method is another level
U r genius
This is the best tutorial I’ve ever seen
Hands down to you bro, Incredible tutorial keep snapping!
This is a creative, very cool and good method of modeling faces, thank you!
This is actually super awesome!
YO i gotta try this out thanks for the vid!
whats up man. the videos have come a long way man! great job and thank you for sharing
Such a great video. You helped me so much. Maybe I will now be able to create my first character. Perfect!!!
very helpful thanks
amazing effort buddy. It's people like you that help with making us more confident about techniques, without long 16-17 hour or even 30-hour pro videos, that go nowhere.
I loved a similar approach by BlenderMac3D, who teaches 3D character in less than 1 1/2 hours, that too pixar level quality.
But I really love efforts like these, rather than conventional methods.
This is the BEST tutorial av watched in a long time...Thanks a lot man👊👊
Holy fuck, i never saw anything this useful on modeling heads. I love it
