Eh, ........  i have v4, and I can relate.  There are those who tout she's just fantastic...... but fantastic for what exactly? LOL, I haven't figured that out.  I've managed to make ONE image with her, and i got her oh, within a week of her coming out.   I find her extremely hard to work with.

Its not the "character" faces for her that are the problem, at least, not entirely.  She's very limited especially trying to get something ETHNIC that doesnt have pouty lips and big doe eyes.   I'm sure I could get it, but why couldnt it be as easy as say, V3"s simple inject of "asian".  At least v3 you have more options to play with.

Anyway, its the expressions that are lacking enirely.  Unless your figure is happy, sad, disgusted or angry.......i've mixed those with tweaks  of other dials and have yet to get any realistic and SUBTLE facial expressions.

I'm not bashing vendors here, they're trying at least, but there simply isn't a plethora of V4 textures out there.  Someone will argue with me, yes there's lots, but most seem like the one before it.  I've only seen a minor handful that actually look good when rendered, unfortunately they are almost all primarily the classic "white woman"

Again, sure she's a good figure in someone elses hands, I just find her way too time consuming to get a look that i want, I have better luck airbrushing over the entire rendered figure.
