3D-Daz My-maybe-VN-game, discussions / votings for characters

[Creeping Death]

Hi folks,

again for a possible VN I playing around for some weeks with Daz3D and I think I finally finished my first char, the main character. So this is not about the lighting (which is only one at the moment) it is about a decision too be made before going further.

The female MC is in the beginning a little emo/gothic/metal chick (yeah I like that), later in the game and progressing corruption she will go blonde so calm down
So my problem is I cannot decide between four combinations of eye colour and hair colour. Your opinion and your feedback to the char itself is appreciated!

1. black hair / blue eyes


2. black hair / green eyes


3. red hair / blue eyes


4. red hair / green eyes

Another decision I want to make is her name, to get some personal touch while I am working on/with her.

If you have a suggestion please post it, my current candidates are as follows:

1. Sam (short for Samantha)
2. Kylie
3. Julie

Black Blue..
That green doesn't look really natural.. and not sure how would fit with a blonde hair..

For the name.. meh.. can't give you a name for a figure without knowing the plot.. dunno.. Roxy/Roxanne slutty name..
Julie.. slutty name.. dunno

Again for the combination as well.. depends by what content would like to add.. for fantasy lights or dunno some unrealistic things.. the green it's ok as well and maybe it will fit better.

Make a few environments with all the lights placed.. place her as well.. do some test portrait renders and do the math..
From my POV I would go with black/blue

That green isn't really natural, true, but this is my intention, for me a girl with green eyes black/blonde hair is RRRRRRRRRR
As a "preview" blonde / green eyes / more makeup and darker skin.

Well.. you just answered your question I guess.

I'm not gonna subscribe to your patreon or will not download the game either.. + i'm gonna do an Ellie Fan art as well.. with her raped by her father and dead at the end!

//or actually with a zombie Ellie with green glowing eyes.

Not really, she looks also hot with the red hair neither green or blue eyes. Damn, maybe I should be the first one featuring a game with two twin sisters with different eye colors Here a black/blue/metal/goth outfit shot.

The last ones, wearing some lingerie, red hair, green eyes

Who is she if you don't mind?

Who is she if you don't mind?

The female MC I created for my "maybe visual novel". The renders were taken just one second after she turned 20 18 . She's more a petite type with still some nice boobs (Gauge porn actress type). Below some height comparison to a default G8 female. Name for her is still vacant.



She got a younger brother (18) and an older sister (22) and parents. She loves metal, dark metal, viking metal (especially the bands Vindland, Sólstafir, Nightwish, Ensiferum, Ewigheim, Be'lakor and the old Metallica albums)

There are some outlines for the game, mechanics still not finished (Vanilla version for patreon, Dark Mode made by fans) and I am a total noob in Daz3D and Ren'py. So maybe, maybe I will have the time and motivation to release 0.1 version by the end of the year. Maybe

Yes will do, did first all the assets I want to use for her at start. During the week I will do some proper (at least I try) lighting setup and put her in an environment.

Black hairs / blue eyes for me. Hum just a question about the proportion. Does she has the right "head" proportion compare to the rest of the body ? From one of you previous render (comparison with G8 female) it looks a bit strange to me. It gives me the feeling it's a bit to big. Oh and btw if she has a bit bigger boobs, I will not be against

Thank you very much for you feedback!

Seems most people prefer the black / blue combo, maybe because I mentioned a later on hair colour change to blonde. The red hair / green hair is second most popular hmmm.

Okay the head, I don't think it looks weired. Yes it's slightly bigger in relationship to the body, but this is intended to trigger the "cute response" (like babies have a big head compared to their body, mammals do have the same like dog puppies). So maybe I will overthink the proportion, at the moment currently I find it cute.

The boobs, quite funny, I tweaked her yesterday a small bit (eyes, nose, distance nose/mouth, her bottom and a little bit her boobs). No one noticed but she also got some slight asymetrics in her face and boobs (like real people aren't 100 symmetric). I definitly don't want mega-mutant-baloon boobs, not for the MC. They are now more pointed out which should please you! Her overall height isn't final too, I will have to wait until I created her older sister (tall) and her younger brother (taller than MC) and her father and mother.

Here is a current picture, with the preferred hair / eye combination. Still no lighting setup, etc. just played around a bit with an environment, but it's quite difficult to progress in rendering with tutorials (an render it on a GTX 1650 ... (but I will get 2x 1080Ti this week so at least this problem would be solved)), learning Ren'py, story writing/concepts, character design, collecting ideas and so on if you work full time and got some other hobbies like fitness or shooting or playing World of Warships

Totally into black hair and blue eyes. Remembering Kali from Harem Hotel makes my pipi hard.
IMO with red hair looks like side character and much more older, like good preserved 30+. (like Aunt from Big Brother)
Body of your character is ok, but with face be careful, i already barely can say that she is 18(20) teen. Especially your last picture with red hair.

Thank you for your feedback. I have to agree, in the process of creating her, her face lost some teen look. Problem is, I want her with a smaller body (see the height comparison). So with a more teeny face and her small frame I am quickly in the jailbait area or even younger, which why I gave her some pounds.

Tweaking of her is still not finished (especially height, where I noticed some "scaling" problems in a bathroom prop ("can someone bring me a ladder a cannot see myself in the mirror!" )). So I will try to make her face look more teeny-like during the week, to finalize her look maybe this weekend. Will post it here if I got something ready.

---

Obviously there are two prefered hair / eye colour combos, with a slight lead of black / blue. So I will definitely create a character with the losing combo (maybe the neighbours daughter <-> friends). Since she's a metal/emo/gothic chick I tend to choose the black / blue for the start (as mentioned later on in the game there will be style change (at least hair color, blonde hookers earn more )).

IMO black hair/blue eyes fit her face better. You'll be tweaking her for a long time Good luck, mate!

Thx Paperwork for your feedback! The tweaking could become a problem, but I really don't want still working on her model in two months and nothing else is done. So my deadline is this weekend! The I am working on her older sister and her younger brother, put her aside for some time and then recheck if I still want to change something / still like what I designed.

I'm working on a comic for 1 month.. and I'm learning something new and the new renders are not compatibile with the first ones.. so rework on the first renders.. and find something good again..
One day I ll finish that.

Oh yeah. Even if you are satisfied with a design you have still a strong learning curve for Daz and the postwork stuff! And you are right, somewhere you read something or discover something, hey cool, I want to implement this too, you have to render older images again etc. But I think that's something how it is, learning something knew. I hope very much for a new update from Stoper where he tells something about his postwork, maybe some useful tipps for us noobs!

The self-demand to deliver something impressive in renders like Stoper does for example, is condemned to fail, at least for a beginner!

P.S.: Something seems to be my word of the day

 

[CulayTL]

Pff... it's a fucking long way to compare our "noob" renders with stoper renders..

The fact that you mentioned gauge increased my interest in this thread by ten fold.

Anyway, my personal preference usually lands at red hair, but for this character I think black works better with the face and skin chosen. Looks good; best of luck to you as you work on your project.

(You could always have a character that changes their hair color, too.)
