Yes, excellent and interesting thread, pookah, thanks. I saw a bit of one documentary about facial features narrated by John Cleese and at one point they showed Liz Hurley as an example of "the face" that we respond positively too. It had too do with certain ratios of the distance between the eyes, between the eyes and the mouth, etc. (not endorsing the theory, just repeating it. But it certainly works for me in the case of Liz!) Opera's comments are very interesting, and I am particularly impressed by the guy and girl at the top of his examples. The girl is sweet-looking, and the guy has total "real character and personality," reminds me a bit of Mo Rocca in his "Ferris Bueler" days.... good job. I plead guilty to the Symmetry Trap, but have now resolved to find ways to introduce some randomness in my faces. If one works with V3 instead of Judy, and one is NOT a Master of Magnets, is there a way to introduce some asymetry? I usually try to vary the expression a bit (ie, make the eyes and sides of the mouth slightly different), but how about the underlying face morph? Thanks, LinkDink
