Quote - One thing makes me wonder and may be completely OT now, after all these pages and minor quarells.
Why do so many people equal real to "not pretty"?
Why the skin needs to be patchy/uneven/acme ridden? I mean, I've been there. I once did a texture called Plain Jane and it had pimples, extra hair and stuff. But it was intentially too imperfect (like morning bathroom look imperfect ;))
Defining "proper" didn't work out well in the thread, I see. Defining "real" is no different ;)
I definitely agree with that. It's one thing to observe that V4's default facial features are not realistic, but the flaw is not that she is too pretty. (In fact, a lot of folk find her ugly, but that's another story.) There are many beautiful people out there, and most folk aren't going to do that many renders of ugly ones, which is okay. But if they took the time to pay attention to realistic facial proportions etc, they could still end up with beautiful without screaming "V4! V4!"
