in renders eyes+forehead lines are lower notch matches nose
in irl while height varies is constantly higher that the notch doesnt match the nose
i dont see any that are low/notch match nose so may be intentional?
what should it be eye low or eye high?

[Chris Böhnke]

I assume there are technical limitations to print the eyes that close to the nose.

My suggestion would be to put the eyes (outermost point of the black outline) at a ~0.5-2 LDU offset and try out which looks best.

Also, it would really help if you used a more descriptive title on this thread

[Jeff Jones]

i think the patternable area should be expanded more.

[Jeff Jones]

almost ready

forehead lines look a bit wonky

[Jeff Jones]

what a mess this was, the forehead lines particularly
is it ok?, is there a better view to do this?

[Chris Böhnke]

At first glance I'd have said the part above the nose needs more vertices, but the real part looks indeed that angular, very strange...

Looking good as far as I can tell. Is it completely symmetrical?

symmetrical except the forehead lines

mind if i send you the file? or maybe just the original flat pattern

You can. But you could also put it directly on the PT

I didn't realize until now - is this based off the official file in the library?

It looks like the pattern extents the assigned "decoration area". Is that the case? Did you modify the base file?
