still unsure about some of the facial features i'm working on RN , i'm doing a lot of studies for the head, anatomy is still wild , even after all these years
much happier with the result now
any feedback welcome , as i'm moving toward retopology
The original Drow model she has this intense look because of her brow. with heavy eyelash and mascara+ shadow to to accentuate a comic book look. I think that style/ intensity of the character is getting a bit lost imo, but that could be fine depending on the style you're going for.

And looking at the other arcana's I think they're pushing the proportions a lot more with the hip to waist ratio, thick hips, and long legs.
overall though nice work!, be curious to see how it looks as final render/ in game.
i think the link you sent is the official skin / model for the game, wich looks awesome, i had it in my pureref file since the beginning, but it doesn't 100% match the original concept.
i try to find a nice balance between the concept and me, as i'm going back and forth texturing and doing some lookdev, i'll try to improve her brow as well.
here's where i am now : ( in the meantime i've already made her eyes brighter and a lot more red, so they aren't this dark anymore)
