When I was starting out with the project, I didn’t know what features to add to the faces other than the basic eyes, head, nose, and mouth. After some time playing around with primitive shapes, I placed a new ellipse that overlapped with the original face ellipse, which made it look like a weird species. So I decided that the second head’s size would be fun to manipulate. In the end, the theme of my project was about showing the many ways an alien can look like in our imagination.
