Benchmark/Graphics Update - Show your WoL's before and after

[Chasingstars]

Only real things I noticed are

• Lips got more glossy even though no lipstick
• Hair is very bright
• The white of the eyebrows looks shorter and at a different angle
• The ear's cartilage is modeled is different

I really like that bottom-right picture! I think it's the hair, freckles and eyes for me...they all seem a bit more vibrant (especially the hair as you mentioned).

Gotta say, as the days go by, I am getting more excited to see how things are gonna be in-game. Ever so slightly amused at the thought of my characters becoming all wonky looking. Or maybe they'll all have massive glow-ups and we can crown the benchmark/creator the troll of the year. Either way, exciting times ahead!

I am also really curious if there is any truth to the theory that SE has tweaked the mouth rigs in order to allow for more unique facial expressions down the road. I've been testing out more characters again, and the miqo'te mouth at this scene always looks sliiightly weird to me. I don't hate it, but it does seem to form a new shape? Stretched wider perhaps? She looks cute IMO though. :X

Yeah the bottom right one I also like. From what I can tell with the cutscenes they are not nearly as bad when demonstrating that for your character and that its apparently a character lighting setting by default that is causing the hair to be like.

Well based on the elezen feedback thread, its definitely evident they reworked the mouth rigs to try and get some more emoting out of the character model.

I would say she does look cute still.
