Description She looks...good. Great in fact. If you are careful with your tools, materials, lighting, and figures you can get incredible results from older models. This also takes a lot of play and practice, so put the time in. There is a point in 3d where you go from "naked 3d model" to "something cool" and this crosses that gap.

This is really how I started, just nudes. You can go through my galleries and see the process evolve. My biggest pet peeve is different skin settings on different models, and you get one with flat skin, another with gloss, and another that glows from the inside and nothing works together. I would not be where I am today without doing to nude studies, so as an artist I never apologize. This is what all the classical greats did back with paint, hammer and chisel, and I did it in my own way.

But comics were always there, and characters, and stories. Even the early pics had stories to them and unique characters and relationships. To see the models do silly comedy, show their beauty, have unique characters and arcs, and do all of it very well is fun. This whole arc is a fun call back to that work and style.

Also, boobs. They move, they sag, they bounce, they push, they hang, they lie flat, they pull with skin and muscle movement, they can be baggy, they stretch, bones are under them, they smoosh, they moosh, and they go in different directions at the same time. I will be damned if I ever use a stock 3d boob position ever. Show your boobs some love and play with them!

Hunter was actually one of the most difficult conversions I have done. She comes from a character pack with the dreaded "painted on shadows" so she has unnaturally dark streaks everywhere, crotch, behind, under her butt and breasts, etc. Oh, what looks good for promos sucks when you show her bend over and you see these nasty streaks and scars on her skin. This would be an automatic QA fail for a lot of stores and vendors back in those days (and certainly these), and it took me a couple hours with a really soft push brush, object remover, and healing brush to get her skin looking natural again.

Back in the day, render engines had a lot of trouble doing AO and these types of shadows, so vendors just painted them on for that extra pop. These days we are a lot better off, but you run into these types of skins from the old days and you either throw the character out or work hard to convert them to a better place. I did seriously think about retiring her, but I just couldn't. I am glad I did keep her around because I learned a hell of a lot of fixing her up and letting her show her stuff.

Fans are happy too, so a win-win.

...you can see that line on the front of her right hip, that is not a shadow, it is on the map. In a lot of my work with her I was really good to put real shadows over them so you never noticed, but it led to her "never wanting to go out into the sun" because her model has these flaws. While human flaws are beautiful things, on 3d models where flaws should not be there...they are not.

These days? She is free to go anywhere she wants, with no flaws other than the wonderful ones with her character.
