MDDN 242: Inspirational Faces

To get this project sussed, I really needed to scout around for forms that could serve as faces, as well as faces that could show me how to make different forms and then use those different forms. To start off, I began with an array of comic faces that had been simplified to make best use of a multitude of basic shapes.

Thereafter, I began to look at real human faces, as the expressions visible in them is nearly endless. People have the most awesome capabilities to morph their faces into strange forms, often resulting in hilarious results. My sister often tells me that I have a very malleable face, and I love making stupid and funny faces, so looking at the faces of others for this project is a good place to start.

People have some beautifully expressive faces, I just need to figure out how to capture that in my coding.
