Excellent portrait, love the skin and lighting!!

super super super....;)*****

Please don't tell me it's Alan Alda! Can't tell just who it is, but it looks damn good from where I'm sitting! I don't see anything that begs a critique either. DO keep up the good work. DPH

Very nice portrait!

Excellent image!

Excellent portrait and the eyebrows and lips look good. You might want to highlight the eyeballs a touch though, they look a bit dark. If you have photoshop try going over them. Use the dodge tool with the 'fuzzy looking' round brush at about size 20. Select highlights and strength about 20%. Just go over the whole eyeball until it lightens up. Then, use the sharpen tool with the same brush. Select normal and strength about 10% and go over them again. It should make the eyes stand out considerably.

I would probably use a different eye material entirely when I go at this for a revision, I suspect the included eye mat doesn't quite fit the geometry (seems the iris slips out of position). Thanks for the tips, I'll try to apply that on next try.

I don't know who it is, but my first thought when I saw the thumbnail was "Whoah, a poser morph that looks like a normal person!" Consider that a big compliment ;)

Thanks VERY much! :D

So, you got her phone number? (Kidding.) You should consider doing more of these, for no other reason than practice. How about my ugly mug? JavaApp

This is really really well done. Congratulations :)

My only critique, maybe added a bit of flesh color to the whites of the eyes, they are, I think, to grey and muddy. The flesh color would be refracting or bouncing up onto her eyes, maybe bring up the contrast of the eyes all together. Otherwise, a great image.

Nicely done portrait. I agree it is nice to see a real face for a change. The hair looks great -- like the breezy look of it.

Great morph job and a very well put together portrait!

What an amazing portrait! This is really extremely realistic. Her skin, her eyes, her hair. And, to tell you the truth, I dont see any of those things that lemur01 and kenernest63, for me it's just fantastic (but then again, I'm not much of an expert in portraits).

Really lovely portrait. It all works for me...except the eyes - although I can't say exactly what the problem with the eyes is. They just look a little disconnected from the fabulous skin. It might be that they are a little bit blurry whereas the skin is really sharp and in-focus. I have seen something similar with many of the V4 character/texture packages and I think it is one of the few things that lets V4 down a bit. A small criticism is that the material on the shoulder looks a bit artificial - I think it could do with a fabric texture.

I am without words. It looks awesome! I'm honestly just sitting here in awe - what a very cool thing for you to do. P.S. The problem with the eyes is they should be hazel : p The shape though is dead on I think. I'm beyond flattered with this = D

Excellent work, very close to the persons avatar.

Gorgeous portrait!!

A lovely face - the only thing I am not sure of is the lipstick :( But that's maybe just a personal thing :)

A beautiful portrait of a beautiful woman. As said before, what a treat it is to see Vik look like a REAL person for a change! While I like many of the characters available for Vicky, Aiko, et al, many don't really look real. I'm not sure why. I look and know, no matter how well rendered, that it's not real. A bit more work and we won't be able to tell jjroland and your custom morph apart! Please continue! :)

Fantastic morp. I think she is perfect like she is now. About highlighting her eyes white. Hm...the human eye whithe is a little gray too. So for my taste you can leave it like this is.

fantastic, beautiful morph. and i think the lighting and composition make it a great portrait. if i had any advice about her face, it would be to make her face a little less symmetrical. her eyes look off, but since i've seen about 2 images where i thought v4's eyes looked ok and realistic, i've got no advice on how to fix them other than postwork. i know that what i see in real life that she lacks is shadows as well as highlights in the iris. her lips are shaded like metal or satin. i think they could be a bit more matte and less pink in coloring for this image, which seems so beautifully simple and unadorned. the rest of her face looks very purely free of makeup, so what looks like heavy lipstick to me seems out of place. the green background was a perfect choice; it contrasts with the red-brown of her hair and induces more pink in her skin. piece of white clothing visible actually detracts from the realism her skin and the background establish, partly due to texture and partly due to its stiffness. this could be addressed with improved fabric materials and the cloth room and/or postwork, but i also think the image would look great if it wasn't there at all. i like this character more than just about every v4 i've seen so far. she has a great deal of character, and you've portrayed her with an almost dramatic simplicity. she is ordinary and dignified. this is a wonderful instance of the everyday made sublime. kudos!

Very nice - I dont hae the technical expertise to critique this - I think it's damn near perfect!

Yeah the eyes and lipstick are problematic. I'll work on a revision tomorrow and try some different materials. I'll agree that the top doesn't really add anything as well. Thanks all for the wonderful feedback so far, much appreciated.

Damn this is good! I don't really have much to add to what's already been said but I think the material across the left shoulder is the one thing in this render that doesn't look realistic to me. I think it doesn't do justice to what is otherwise an excellent job. Fantastic effort though, really great!

Thats gota be the best, most realistic nose on a daz figure I've seen in my entire life. And considering the pinched pencil thin fragile abundance of the fairey nose look ..... thats saying a WHOLE lot. You have talent galore to get that out of a daz figure nose, v4 or ANY figure. Kudos. Am i aschewing the rest of the picture for a nose? YOu bet...... let me bask in the brilliant glory of a so rarely done actual nose........ ::majestic music plays, angels sing...... the sky opens up...... so on so fourth::

Very nice, portrait, it is great to see 'normal' looking morphs, & this is fantastic. I don't have any critical comments, all have been covered.

I am not crazy about the round little nose end, but that's just me. She reminds me of that new Daz V4 teen.

Very nice portrait and good morphing. :) After a quick glance there r some things that could be changed if there will be an rev: DOF needs to be adjusted, reflections, gel light & IBL (max 3 lights. 1 IBL, 1 Inf., 1 spot) to get rid of that makeup look on the upper half and chin region of her face, adjusting the bump on her neck/chest, iris mat shaders, ears mats, different hair or dyn. hair, shadow bias towards 0, refraction for lacrimal fluid, hair ambience color. Escaping lines would req. that she's positioned about 1/8 to 1/7 more to the right side. Or head (& lights) turned left approx. 3 I guess. If you also add her number and email it will be very appreciated. g
