Updated benchmark

[Tahli]

A closer comparison of the eyes on F Moon Miqo Face 2, Eyes 6, Brow 2 between benchmarks. I really liked how in the first benchmark, the eyebrows were a softer color, and not as thin on the inner part. Looks kinda like drawn-on angry eyebrows in the newer one. Having the heavier eye makeup was my preference, sad that they reduced that without adding it as a facial feature option. And the iris and pupil themselves looked less uncanny in v1.

Commenting on this one more time with some better pictures/comparisons. Images taken in character creator of current game, Benchmark 1 and Benchmark 1.1, all in direct sunlight of La Noscea setting.

I really felt like the first benchmark was most flattering on my character's features. I would like for the eyebrow shape/shading to be more like how it was in Benchmark 1, because I think the shape and color is truly beautiful. But if not that, then at the very least, I think the latest 1.1 eyebrows should be shaped closer to how they are in the current game: thicker at the base, thinner at the tail, slightly lighter in color, and angled softer so as not to give a drawn-on angry eyebrow impression. Eyebrow 2, specifically, is supposed to be the most gentle of the eyebrow options.

And the eyes, as you can see, have much harsher "lines" making up the patterns of the iris now, and it looks much less natural than the earlier versions. Keepers of the Moon have large pupils, so only that outer portion of the iris is visible on us, and it would be appreciated if the color popped more like it used to.

I do think some of the shading/lighting in the new benchmark is a little extreme, and might be giving Female Miqote an uncanny valley effect. Shadows are very prominent, and lighting is very bright on skin.
