My wife, as a young girl sat for hours while her Dad adjusted the lights for his portrait sessions. Eventually a manaquin head with glass eyes rescued her for 3/4 of the time!
Mannequin heads, or model heads, are great because the don't arrive late, complain, need bathroom breaks or get paid! They should be used for getting the shadow and highligh distributions and the catchlights.
So who uses model heads, from where and what do you get out of it? Do you take relfective lighrt metering or just incident metering?
So please share your experience!
