Problem-
This was one of the hardest projects I've ever had to do. making a vector image look realistic is a big problem itself, but my decision to make a guy like Terry Crews look realistic was a mistake. Terry Crews has a lot of shadows on his face and in the specific picture I picked, it formed a lot of wrinkles that  were very difficult to recreate.

Solution-
I found out that with patience and hard work, anything is possible. All I had to do was sit down, and carefully create every part of his face that was different, using 30 different mesh circles to reflect each wrinkle on his face. 

Result-
The end result isn't exactly what I hoped, but I did get really close. If i had picked anyone else to model I'm sure I would have gotten better results, but I made the decision to model terry crews and this is what I got. A much bigger challenge  that what i t needed to be, but I'm happy I took it. I learned a lot form this project.
