Here's the thing:
Good wireframe views (no mesh smooth on!!!!):


Bad wireframe views:



Please upload a wireframe view according to what I said, you can't really see the topology the way you (and most people, unfortunately) posted it.

Anyway, from what I can distinguish now, you have a very wrong topology, possibly with many triangles (which is bad for high poly models) and the anatomy of the face is wrong in every aspect. And you might want to check them reference pictures of the bastard, because it doesn't look anything like it, and it should do from an early block-in stage.

he acutly looks like that fat ass zombie from Doom 3. and ermm TDR...Those GOOD wireframe views are not true wireframe the ones you specificly labled BAD are the true wireframe views. how about just say put edged faces on instead.

Edit: His topology looks fine to me and it really dosen't matter unless you plan on animating him or you going to do alot of extrusions/

I invite you to say that to a professional modeler and then tell me how hard did he punch you in the face.

mmm do I got to give you screenshots here? those 2 top ones have edged faces turned on, in no way they consider wireframe views. Wireframe views are exactly what they say they are Wireframe and nothing else.

Hell here is a link to the definition of wire frame models. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wireframe

I'm telling you that you're not doing alright. Clean up the mesh and make a proper UVW unwrap before going to ZBrush.

Xlightscreen, when people talk about wireframe views of a model in the CG industry, they refer to what I was showing. If you fail to understand that, you have a problem.
