My thoughts exactly.
It's really cool dude. I would have put her eyes lower, but ho well. ^^
I like her lips, and the design of the pants.
What software did you use?
Any plans for a game res of this character?
I agree with this. Since the main focus is on the character it's not a big deal, and I can quite understand your need to move on something new.
But anyway this is killer work, she have a lot of personality, a beautiful face that doesn't fall into clich
What did you use for rendering/presentation?
If I were to nit pick on a few things I would say it seems like the size of her upper skull is too small. It just doesn't look like there is enough mass in there for normal proportions and the jaw seems a bit large and long to me as well.
The hair seems a little detached from the rest of the materials to me as well. I think there may be a bit too much spec in there and possibly the normals are a bit harsh or something because I would imagine the hair having a softer overall look.
The skin could use a tad more color variation (I'm sure the lighting is washing a lot of it out though) and I think the facial expression could be tweaked a bit to look a little more natural (she has sorta a surprised expression on her face currently).
These are all very minor points, but I think if you played around with it some more it could be even better! Good job man!
Edit: btw, the materials on the clothing and overall look are superb. Just wanted to really point out how awesome I think you did there!
Love that jacket. Sexy textures and folds.
Thank you guys!!!!!!
I 100% agree with all the feedback, but I was working on this for a while now and grew tired of it to do any changes :P
I used XSI (for modelling only), Maya, Zbrush, Photoshop and Marvelous Designer.
Rendered in Vray with an HDRI and a couple of area lights
Clay render setup is a simple cornell box
Hair was rendered in Mental ray (puppet shader) and it's Maya's default hair system.
The whole piece (model, render, sim, design, texturing) has this great sense of restraint - right at the edge of simplification, yet still totally believable and realistic. Digging this so much, will keep this as an inspiration and a bar to aim for !!
Hey, when it comes to seams you can take advantage of your patters structure.
Since there gonna be UV's identical to your patterns you can select the UV border edges in a traditional 3d package, bevel and extrude them to create a seam.
Also when I was making the patterns I already made a thin piece of fabric in front as a placeholder to place the zipper later.
Then I used wrinkled paper texture, high passed it, tiled and inflated it in Zbrush, to break up the surface. Unwanted details were removed with the morph brush.
