Hi all
Well done on the last competition to those that entered.
Some nice work happening there.
I've decided to go with Devil Hunter Yohko
as my subject.I dont think she has been modernised as yet.
If I'm wrong please correct me.Here is a pic of the game

maybe do something with her hair and weapon, too.

Maybe even make it not anime-style? Anime, as I've seen it, is generally pretty hard to recreate in 3D with any of the original 2D's quality, do to the strange shapes involved.

Hey guys
I'll let the cat out of the bag.
I wanted to create a realistic styled character doing
not what youd expect.I was thinking of creating a scene of a
games character at home doing the mundane.I am trying for photorealism this time with my character lying on her bed
in a semi sexy pose,gazing at the viewer.Maybe the concept is boring but its the reality of someone like this actually existing.A long shot I know but what they hey.

Oh,as we all know,the gaming industry is getting frightfully close to reality in the visual sense so I thought I'd try
and beat them to it.Obviously not in real time.....

if your character comes out as good as that then you got it wrapped up!

You should think about changing the pose or something. I find it to be too common now - having a sexy girl "gazing at the viewer." What is the point, you are not trying to sell something. You should come up with a better pose for the model, and avoid having her just on a bed looking at the viewer.

Good luck on the photorealism.

Youre right its far too boring.I think I'll have her shagging a demon to spice things up.Will that be more to your liking?
