Thanks. I think the approach of making specific shapes like the ethnic noses or different eye shapes or lip shapes that appeal to you is sensible if you don't find it a burden --I used to work with very clinical x,y, z scale trans and rot morphs but lately I get more from dialing composits from full character head morphs actually... Then maybe things like lateral jaw movement, lip pursing etc as the building blocks for expressions would make sense for you if you wanted... long ago that is how I started with making expression morphs for Posette... working up from individual feature morphs like snears and squints. I have never used the full face expressions such as found on Don and Judy since they are too simplistic but I have liked the solid expression components on figures like Aiko 3 and Elle and Ester and now even V4. My main problem with the vickies has been the facial expressions while I find the bodies are so versatile I have always prefered them for male figures to the off-the-rack male figures.
Whatever you end up doing... thank you.
