There are so many to choose from that I cannot possibly pick just one. Here are some of my favourites: Livia - ilona Dahra - ilona Evolution Eve - orion1167 and Greybro Layla - Morris and Mahna Lori - Morris and Mahna Kashmira - Eowyn and Papu Suelma - StefyZZ
Coppula eam se non posit acceptera jocularum.

Oh.....there are tons of 'em. And there are a number of excellent V3 character creators. I'm not very picky. Except in regards to quality. But, I'll list at least one that stands out to me: V3 characters by newherve.

I don't believe it's possible get the best face, body and texture in the same package. May you write what is the best face, the best body and the best texture? Yours Wonderbird

Hi wonderbird, My opinion tends to differ, as I do believe it's possible to get the best face, body and texture in the same package(s). But it always gets down to your own taste. You can tell who does my absolute favorite work. Check these out :-) Evolution Eve - orion1167 and Greybro Bella Rane - orion1167 Landis Rea - orion1167

Yeah, orion1167 is an excellent one, too.

It depends on so much...how realistic do you want the texture to be/ how large are you intending to work/ how close will you focus on, say, a head, or a hand? On the other hand: what do you consider to be a beautiful/ characteristic face/body? You want a pale skin, make up, a brown skin? You want a nordic face, a catwalk model, a girl next door? Imo, you need to acquire several textures and characters to come close to what you want yourself. And then, you will have to tweak a bit: a mouth, size of the head (i always set between 103 and 106%, also for the hair), etc... I hate it to mention names, but some things stand out: -EvolutionEve comes with skin patches that give a more realistic look on stretched joints -MissApril comes with a wet skin that is very useful -Trisha's face is close to what I consider idealized beauty, but Kimimela has a lot of character. -one of Vali's textures comes with a gloss map that is very useful, also on other characters. -Jacqueline (SubTigee) is great for faeries, while Savannah is a darker-skinned beauty... etc etc etc Then there are the personal preferences. Me, for example, I sometimes have decided not to buy because of the bikini marks on the skin. Some other people may prefer this. Also, I often remove most of the typical marks on the skin (blemishes, coloured spots, mosquito bites,...). I also refrain from too much realism as the pores are usually too large which makes it come close to a very rough skin, or even a skin disease. But other people have other opinions, and they are as much right as I am. It's a question of personal preferences. I love Vali's girls, but they are such a rage at the moment that they become too recogniseable.
I have tried prudent planning long enough. From now I'll be mad. (Rumi)

Well I use Randomiser to make my own face and bods, added in with body morphs I've made myself. I have hundreds of V3 bodies now .... I don't need to buy someone elses dial twiddling, sorry. For texures I find myself using Rhiannon by Stacey73, I've also done some conversions of Sophia by Daio and the GolDen Girl set. Rhiannon has excellent eyebrow and eyelash tyansmaps which I use on all the Unimesh figures. Very handy :) My next runner up is a freebie, Cindi, and I forgot who made her (sorry!)

Heres what I think are awsome characters for VS. Aspen and Kumiko but your forgeting, that no matter what the texture is, if the lights don't fit the scean, then it doesn't matter what texture or morph you used. It'll look bad no matter what you do.

I have a Cindy texture from poserpros weekly freeby and it was made by Cin. I remember because it was my first V3 texture :-) It is a great basic texture...
