Existing faces can be transferred to a digital form using equipment such as laser scanners. New faces can be constructed using commercial modelling tools, or using specialist software, e.g. Photo-fit software. We present a technique that can create a 3D head using intuitive 2D sketching techniques. This involves bringing together two types of graphics applications: sketching interfaces and systems used to create 3D faces, through the mediation of a statistical model.Categories and Subject Descriptors (according to ACM CCS): I.3.5 [Computer Graphics]: Sketch-based modeling
