Description
I have made many aiko characters some I think are pretty, some cute and others just average girls lol so I decided to set myself a mission to create a character I think of as beautiful!
Not there yet lol
first I need to define beautiful - not easy to put into words but know it when I see it
Why is it so hard to attain with Aiko ?
why do we see her as pretty, cute sweet etc but rarely beautiful I see it in comments on peoples characters and often think it myself when I look at one - Isn't she pretty! Is it because she looks young? the shape of her head, the morphs and features we have available to work with her?
I started work on my own set of morphs today to combine with daz ones - one for her nose others for eyes and mouth but still need to make more I think to complete this quest.
I would like to hear your views on beauty and aiko maybe combining them with my ideas I will be able to fulfill this quest
Misha has the Kozaburo bob hair and is pure daz morphs
my unnamed girl with the quarker baby doll hair (help she needs a name) is a combination of some of my injections and daz
keep smiling thinking and helping ;o)

I think both characters are already beautiful. Beauty doesn't necessarily have to come in morphs..beauty can also come from the setup of the image. What helps me feel that my characters are beautiful is actually giving them a personality to live by. I feel far more connected and secure when my character means something to me, and isn't just being made, then put away and making a new one. Once I feel I've given the character a personality and a past, I always feel like she's beautiful, whether others think so or not, because there's that bond to the character that makes me feel proud. That's how I do it. Then again, I don't know if any of my Aiko characters have ever been beautiful to you..they have for me.

Aiko does look terminally young and cute!i think your right about the shape..she always looks alittle doll like..i think it a wonderful Quest.i have had the same quest with the girl..easy to make cute but hard to be beautiful or sexy without being toonish..or animaish in aikos case...i wish you tons of luck and think your definetly on the right track as these are gorgeous!!!

I think it's the whole build of her. She has a small slim body,and a young face. One thing I notice with her is,her chin and jaw line. It's always small and pointed. Good luck in your quest.

I am working on a broader (all over) nose and smaller eyes as I think the button nose and big eyes add to the youthful appearance :o)

Ok I have only ever done a couple of Aiko characters and that is because my friend on here wanted me to try them out. Now the most beautiful one that I admire the most and I view a lot of peoples work now has got to be Sylfie with her big brown eyes. She has always looked incredible after some of the pictures I have seen. I do think Aiko can look beautiful and some of the clothes for her are better than V3. Trying to think of a name for your other character here a few Molly, Melina, Mitsy, Kimmiesan just make a name up doesnt have to be a real one lol :) Cathy xoxoxo

What I've always thought was beauty was based on symmetry, I think it's the ratio between the larger eyes and smaller mouth that makes her more cute than beautiful, you can work on the other ratios also to get a greater balance. I loved the shirt on the left, splendid job!

I dont think that i can define beauty by looks - with people anyways rofl.....sometimes i myself find that i get irritated with Aiko because you sometimes can't get rid of that pointy chin which is an Aiko Default... We can define what we think beauty is, but for each person it is different and sometimes difficult to achieve... but i think all your girls have a beauty of their own.

"first I need to define beautiful - not easy to put into words but know it when I see it" -- ah yes, the same standard we place upon the word, 'obscenity'. WINK. I see 'supermodels' who date wrinkly, old rock and roll stars? What's that all about? WINK2. Beauty is, indeed, in the eye of the beholder, methinks. Or, in the words of one John Mellencamp, "Forget all about that macho S**t and learn how to play guitar". -- SMILIN' and BEAUTIFUL old, grumpy, T.P.

They're both beautiful in my book but NO ONE can compare to someone I know, so to me anything and anyone who isn't her won't measure up. As for names I don't know I have a hard time there too. Looks good so far. hugs ^_^

I think the basic stylised look of Aiko tends towards cuteness in most people's eyes! However Misha in your image bottom left already looks adult and sophisticated to me (due to her posture and build) whilst retaining her anime styled roots! I'm sure that with your own custom morphs you will be able to go far beyond the transformation you've already created....and from all that I've seen so far you're well on the way! Keep pushing the boundaries Chris :o)

It probably is the anime-side of her that makes her more pretty than beautiful. But with the realistic morphs I think she can look beautiful. Your characters in this pic are something between beautiful and pretty I think =)
