    For me the lips are the things that need the most work.
    I use face 2 and it looks like the lipstick doesnt line up with the actual lips. Looks very wierd. And also the details of the upper lips is gone its just a straight line and doesnt look realistic.

    And the thicker default eyeliner is too much
    my Viera doesnt look like herself like that

    I'm devastated, personally. This is awful.

    Really strange why Vieras was hit hardest by this graphic "update". As one of newer races, they looked fine to me compared with older races and their ingame models were great quality.
    This race did not needed any changes, considering male Viera was added into game just recently and already undergoes surgical intervention ? Just does not make any sense.
    *and agree with most ppl in here, that it is more like graphic downgrade and not vice versa Would be best to just not touching Viera appearance and everybunny would be satisfied.
    **edit: grammar errors

    I completely agree! I am like mind blown with the subtle changes and wish I could have them now. My Viera's hairline is so clean and crisp now, her mouth looks amazing, and the detail in her eyes was like striking to me at first.

    She's so incredibly pretty and I could not be happier!! Plus her skin tone now is MUCH better! We don't look like a ghost with too much sunscreen. I'm really glad of how inclusive they decided to be for players with darker skin tones.

    Not sure if this is the place for it, but is anyone else running into an issue where the beauty mark turns into just a line? I'm also noticing that the eyeliner tattoo for this face (in red) isn't as clean-looking, or crooked somehow.

    Overall I'm glad they've updated the clothing textures and hair, and the weird neck seam (in the first pic). But this face in particular now has some weird shadows along the cheeks/jaw, and my boy's eyebrows have nearly disappeared. Not sure how to feel about this update when it comes to Viera. I've been happy with all of my characters otherwise!

    I seem to have been hit with the reverse problem to that of many others': I find my character's eyelashes have been severely nerfed lol


    Left side is the benchmark, right side is the in-game character creation. It was kinda shocking to see that the added lashes in the benchmark look sparser than if the character has no added lashes at all in the current build.


    It persists through the character creation and into the benchmark proper. The dreaded dark half-moon of the eyes mitigates it, but the difference is still clearly there, at least to my eye. (Also somewhat visible in the left-side picture is the already well-documented weird in-shadow look, it kinda makes me feel like my GPU has broken and isn't rendering shadows properly. ETA: I should mention that the right-side in-game picture has some subtle gpose lighting in the shadows, since I took the picture mostly to compare the eyelashes. In terms of lighting, this definitely shouldn't be taken as a 1:1 comparison.)

    I imagine this is at least partially a result of the new sharper textures, which would reduce the natural blending the more pixelated/blurry textures had. The same might apply to the eyebrow change, which was also pointed out earlier in the thread.

    This eyeliner/eyelash thing is probably my main gripe with the benchmark's character graphics, since I really liked the ridiculously heavy eyeliner look. I can live with the benchmark version, but I'll sorely miss the softer look of the current build. It's truly a shame this graphics update has been so divisive, since I'm sure some people prefer the new lighter lashes in this specific instance, and many people prefer their updated character looks overall. A lot of these problems could probably be solved with a global makeup menu with more workable options than the face paints, so I'll hold out hope that something like that is in the works.
