For a long time I've been trying to update Jessica's character model to a newer base figure, but it never looked right. Basically Jessica's character is using an old figure (Genesis 3), and there's no longer new content for it (clothes, hair models, etc...). I'm able to convert clothes to the older figure, but they don't work perfectly and that creates extra work in cleaning the issues that show up during posing. I tried converting the entire character and even individual morphs, but she looked different and there were conversion issues as well. This time I decided to dial in and sculpt from zero and try to match the character that way. And I think it ended up quite nicely. This is comparison between the original Genesis 3 version, and Genesis 9. There are still some slight differences that I may try to polish down the line, but I think they won't be noticeable outside of this close side-by-side comparison. For now I'll make some pinups with the model, just to see how it feels.
I'm working on the next update and it's going well, that's all I can say at the moment. Hopefully it comes out much faster than the last one.
Have fun, and thanks for the support.

2023-11-12 16:44:42 +0000 UTCNo, the body I can sculpt perfectly in ZBrush. Something that's harder on the face, because you can mess up the eyes, teeth, etc... Besides, even if there are some small differences, when the character is posed it will be impossible to tell.

2023-11-12 16:23:59 +0000 UTCBoth look good. Gen 9 looks more realistic with the darker eyes and smaller features. If it makes it easier for you in the future then I think it will be easy to adjust to. Any changes for the body?

2023-11-11 19:06:05 +0000 UTCI assume the other way around with 9 on the right, since on the right they are more subtle, face structure more refined. I hope I'm right 😄

2023-11-11 18:59:02 +0000 UTCWhich one is genesis 9 on the pictures? I hope it's the left one, her eyes are better :)
