Quote - I think part of the problem with V4 is that people don't understand why she was created the way she was (at least as far as some things). Her face is sort of a blended face (you called it stylized) but it was intended as a more neutral base to get rid of the "she always looks like Vicky with that huge nordic jaw" thing etc. It was softer to be a more generic starting point. An averaged form. Same thing for the body (for the most part, I have some issues with her there too) but it requres the user to turn more dials and a lot of people just don't do that. I think DAZ was also hoping for more after market support to fill in some of the areas. That was, at least how I understand it, the reasoning behind her look. more generic as a starting point, clay to be moulded and all that.

Out of all the Daz figures I find V4 to be the best, due to the way she looks. V4 is IMHO more real looking than the other Vickis before. I still use my other Vickis still. Since I have started using poser (almost 6 years now) and the more Female and Male characters that come out there is not true realistic looking figure that is straight "out of the box" with out some texturing involved or some morphs added. Even the  G2 female figures look unreal till you get a good texture and lighting on them.
