I prefer the first face (the non textured one). It looks a lot less erm, creepy.
But I really love the first pic you posed, lots of fine clean details in the model and it makes it look very nice.

Hi, cooldude234. Thanks! I wish I could take credit but seeing as its a tutorial that would be inappropriate. But no worries, as soon as Ive squeezed all the learning I can out of this project I'll definately be posting something origional.

Creepy you say? Could it be because she doesn't have hair in this picture?

cooldude234:
So the first model isn't yours?

Also it looks creepy because the shape of the head and the proportion of the eyes (shape VS proportion of both really).

It is possible to exaggerate parts of the human anatomy without making it look bad or creepy. But you have to reconfigure other parts. It's easy to make eyes big and look good when the rest of the face is less detailed and extremely simplified. This is because your brain doesn't see any of the fine details that would be present on a normal looking face.
It's a little hard to explain and I'm probably too tired to try but its along those lines.

KyleSan:
I get what youre trying to say. No the 1st model is mine, I just followed a tutorial in making it. Having a good look at it I see that her eyelids dont cover enough of the eye, could this maybe be the problem? - making the eyes look all bulgy. I'll work on it and get back to you.

KyleSan:
Please excuse the double post.

I had a look at the eye situation and found a couple things out.

I didn’t do my research for eye references efficiently enough so I remodelled the eye. Please have a look guys and let me know what you think. Practice makes perfect and I'm here to learn. The shape if the eye was way out and also the size of the iris. I tried to refit the eye to look proportionate to the face.

I attached a picture of the old eye vs the new eye.

Thanks guys! loving the new emoticons ;D :P
