Quote - I cant really say that I agree with that. I would say that Anastasia offers a more detailed morph. Not exactly more realistic. Perhaps if photos we see in magazines and whatnot were realistic. The fact is that those "unattainably perfect" shots we see of models and what not are heavily edited and in themselves are not overly 'realistic'.. Stylized and Idealized would probably be a better description. Dont get me wrong, I love the morph and BH did an amazing job, but she is really only as realistic as any other pinup poster girl that you ever see. Much like alice and previous GNDs, which I also loved, but never expect to see any biological examples that come close to matching.
I think I do get your point though, it sure would be nice to see Antonia with the sculpting you see in Anastasia's ankles, calves and back.
Agree. "Realistic" was perhaps the wrong word. What I mean is that the Antonia morphs I've seen are not, as you say, detailed enough. She looks very soft to me, even when skinny or muscular. Something about that strikes me as not quite right, even in a world in which we're accustomed to heavily photoshopped fashion shots. She doesn't appear to have, well, many bones under her flesh. The advanced morphs also seem more stylized than anatomical.
BH's work on Alyson is truly amazing. But I've always had a strong dislike of Alyson's face. Maybe she reminds me of someone, and the resemblance persists, even heavily morphed. ;)
