Ok I really really really want to love La Femme... And I appreciate the work everyone has put into her...
But... I personally find her virtually unusable. As a poser user I have been using V4 for years obviously... so I am so keen for a new figure to take it to the Daz only figures.
In the promo figures La Femme looks Great.... but to use... just incredibly awkward and painful.
1: There is no way to select the neck or head except through directly clicking on it you can't use the menu. This is a strange approach?
2: There is just too much complexity with facial expressions. I know the team is trying to include everything but that just makes it over complicated to do something simple. it takes hours to compose a quizzical expression. It take me seconds with V4.
3: Her legs and feet... I'm sorry... bandy legs and tiny feet? And a thigh gap you could fly a plane through. She looks weird not attractive. Her top half is great... her head a bit meh, but can be worked on... but her legs...
4: Whats with having most of her body parts listed as a prop? Its incredibly hard to find and select and if you have a prop attached they sit at the bottom of a massive list.
I have to conclude that again we have a figure here that is really great for those that want to spend hours and hours on an individual pose and image and for professional artists who are wanting to tweak their figure for days to get it just right... But that will not help the figure in the general market. She is clunky, over complex and hard to use and does not look at all attractive, just distorted and weird. I'm sorry but for me she currently joins the long list of "also ran" figures in my collection. That means she will not get the market support and will fade away. That is sad. I have noticed most of her clothing is dynamic... yep again great for the one shot purists but not for those of us that need art in a quick way.
I hope she can be improved, simplified, and her legs made more human and attractive. I want her to succeed... but right now I regret buying the figure accessories, she was a waste of my money. I should have downloaded her for free first and tried her out.
