Here's a close-up of the P4 detective woman. The shadows in this case are cased by the hat, not whatever it was that had me griping last time. Does anyone think she looks ethnic enough? PapaBlueMarlin

No. You should use Yahoo and find websites about India and look at their facial features. India is a huge country with a huge population and many sub-ethnic groups. Your character might fit a person who had Indian and Caucasion parents, but not a true ethnic Indian...

I'll post my Hindi morph for P4 woman later this evening. It's not perfect, either, but it comes closer.

I agree, take a good look at a site with actual photos of Hindi's. I live in an area that has a lot of Hindi's. I can see the difference, but I think it's hard to describe in words. Hindi's are not just darker Caucasians, there is a definite ethnicity about them. It's immediately obvious. I wish I could tell you to try this or that, but observation, I think, is the best way to get it.

Here's what I'm adding to Freestuff.

She definitely looks much more like some of the Hindi, I see around my neighborhood. Yhere's no doubt about her origins. I like her very much.

Nice attention to ethnic detail Duanemoody! Now PapaBlueMarlin can have a REAL Hindi Detective Woman. Now what we need are some of the talented costume makers to make a Sari to go with her. I've already got the Taj Mahal model, so I'm ready to go...

Thanks for the praise. BTW I'm using an African-American texmap named "Angel"; grey the color down in Materials and you should find most AA maps plenty sufficient. I'd been toying with this figure for a while; thanks for making her useful. Can't wait to see what you do with her.

I like the morph. I am trying to get my character to look something like Aishwarya Rai, a Bollywood actress. Any further help would be greatly appreciated.

Oh, you want one of those European-looking young glam Indians, not the people you actually meet on the streets of Bombay. I'd take a regular Posette and loosely follow these guidelines: find and apply a suitable 'asian eyes' morph, flatten the face a bit and unflatten the nose to compensate. Broaden the nose tip with a morph or a magnet, raise the nostrils a skootch, excessively tweak the Heart, Round, and Square dials to reproduce the face shape, and maybe spin the mouth dials to get the lips right (Lips, F and M come to mind). Airbrush some cheek shadows onto the texmap if they're missing, and alter the lash maps to make the uppers about 50% longer than the lowers.

She is definately a "half-caste". In the old days this would be bad, but in today's world its 'the look". In Hawaii you can see boatloads of beautiful babes like this, all mixtures of Polynesian, Asian and Caucasian bloods that have become so inter-mixed that people need a notebook to keep track of all their multi-ethnic relatives. By the way, the Hawaii movie industry is called "Hawaiiwood". Hawaii is babe-city...

...and in North Carolina the movie industries go by the names "Raleighwood" and "Wilmywood" (Wilmington, home to that travesty of New England, 'Dawson's Creek').
