Hmm, the mesh shows some tri`s. Still looks good.

Really nice quality for a good price.

^as much as i have griped about Vicky's base shape over the years, there are very few (if any) models out there anywhere near her price range that even come close to her mesh quality.  even Meta/CL/SM with all their resources could not produce a male or female mesh without serious issues - nor do any of the alternate figures released by third parties come close to the quality, versatility and functionality of the V4 platform (sorry, but its true).

people also seem to forget that the mesh itself is a very small part of the character. i could model a great base mesh - and then what? its just the tip of the iceberg - there is a hell of a lot more work involved in 'poserizing' something than just the mesh/textures, especially when it comes to figures like V4.

most of the turbosquid meshes just have very basic rigging - if they have any rigging at all. no JCMs, no morphs, no expressions, no phonemes, nothing. most also have crappy video game style UV mapping and very poor textures - they just look halfdecent because their promos are rendered in advanced renderers under advanced lighting. in poser they would look like sh*t.

ive seen professional modelers who think they are hot sht look at the Renderosity marketplace and say 'i could make better products than that in my sleep', and watched them try. sure they may be skilled at modeling, level design, etc -- but as soon as they see how much additional work (and knowhow) is involved in 'poserizing' something, rounding out a product, packaging it, testing it, promoting it in the marketplace and providing support for it over its lifespan they fade pretty fcking fast.  its absolutely staggering how much the average poser customer expects from a $5-10 clothing pack these days.
