I just posted this in the "eyebrow thread" at DAZ:


WAIT A MINUTE.....

I have admitted to having dyslexia.... and what struck me FIRST when all the V4 products hit the market was the MORE OFTEN THAN NOT: RED-ISH EYEBROWS.... so my reaction started up about the color of brows....and I joined in this thread.... somewhere in this mix of EXPECTING HIGH RES close up to show skin flaws, etc.... added to the "eyebrow issue".... and suddenly as a user I WANTED ALL COLORS OF BROWS FOR ONE CHARACTER SO I COULD HAVE HER WEAR ANY HAIR COLOR....

But...I will be the first one to say I think my brain went sideways on this issue.... other than asking texture folks not to ALL do "reddish" brows.... (and there is one gal here who is trying to do more neutral brows to match more hairs).... I WENT AND LOOKED AT A FEW OF MY MANY MANY V3 texture maps.... and uh.... RED FACE.... EACH ONE HAS IT'S OWN BROW COLOR (PAINTED ON I ASSUME, as I look at the head maps)..... and for all these years I have used them... picking a color of hair that would look best for the COMPLEXION and ethnicity of that character I bought..... without a second thought.... for example if I want an oriental character...her brows are pretty much going to be dark/black and I would be using black hair on her....blond Swedish looking girl... blond brows... blond hair.... EEEGADS!!!

IS THIS MUCH ADO ABOUT NOTHING?? OR AM I TRULY MISSING WHAT IS DIFFERENT ABOUT V4'S STRUCTURE AND UV'S?????

I WOULD BE THE FIRST TO APOLOGIZE FOR MY CONFUSION AND FUSSING OVER THIS.... AND AM IN FACT DOING THAT IN A WAY... IF INDEED I JUMPED ON A BANDWAGON AND THAT WAGON IS REALLY JUST AN EMPTY ONE....???

While I am still now CONFUSED.... What WAS different about V3's (or A3's etc.) brows that is now so different about V4's????  What were the PA's having big discussions about? What IS IT about this figure that makes the brows a problem???

sits, hands folded in lap, head a bit down, waiting for someone to explain the REALITY of it all.....and quietly thinking how GLAD I am that I did buy V4
