Description Head model based off of this picture: camkitty2.deviantart.com/art/O…
Currently it has no texture and only the jaw can move. Sometime I might post some close-ups of the teeth because they took forever and they're not super visible here.
The weird shading on the back teeth is just an issue with the vertex normals; I forgot to fix it before taking pictures.

Made in Blender

Edit: Just got some teeth pictures camkitty2.deviantart.com/art/D…

Wow, this is great! I've been looking for some reference material to draw/paint a dragon, and figuring out generally how the head will look in whatever position I want, is proving difficult. Is this model available to purchase??

This model is of one of my personal characters and so is not for sale.

Ah got ya. I may just have to bite the bullet and take the time to do a 3d sculpt!

Amazing work! I like the upwards facing teeth sticking out (I'm a sucker for teeth like that <3)

Thanks! Modeling those teeth was a pain, but the whole time I was just like, nuh-uh, I'm not changing this, I have to make these.

3D work like this is always so fascinating to view, I hope to try it out myself sometime. 
I can see the similarities between the model and the picture, it's interesting to see the character brought to life! Very nice modeling too, especially in the cheekbones and face details. I can imagine the teeth must've taken a lot of time, but just based on what is visible here, they look great.
Well done.

Thanks! One of the nice things about having this model is that I can also use it as a reference for drawing the character from other angles, too!
The teeth for this guy were made more difficult because some of them are on the outside of the mouth and some are on the inside. The curved mouth webbing thing didn't make it easier either.  
It's good to know the similarities are noticeable, too!

You're welcome! Yes, I imagine models like these make great references for angles, shading, and general anatomy of the character!
Ahh, that must've been hard to recreate here, but you did very well considering the complexity.
Yep, as soon as I saw the drawing, I could immediately see that character as the 3D model!
