Thread: Benchmark 1.1 Feedback: Lalafell

They gave the Dunesfolk cataracts.

There's a change in the eyeshape for face 3 males, they have a slightly rounded appearance now rather than looking more squared and flat on top, I think it's mostly due to cleaning up the old eyelash(?) textures, the original shape is lost. It's subtle but I feel it gives a very different look to what it was originally, with no alternative.

Before/After:



The dark nose seems less prominent as well, with a larger light spot in the middle, and the mouth shape is different and less defined, with less expression.

Before/After:

The 6th eyebrow option is now longer/more rounded and looks almost identical to type 1. :-( I miss my tiny pointed eyebrows. (I noticed this the most on male dunesfolk, haven't checked female)

The darker gradient on noses is also much more subtle, and since dunesfolk don't have the additional facial feature to darken it, the color gets lost in my darker skintone :-/ it feels like the shade was left the same across all skin colors and doesn't scale to blend with darker ones as well.

Oh, forgot to mention, I am thrilled that they fixed the mouth-shape/teeth issue!

This will only be a thing of our nightmares now....

Link to full size

I think the update is amazing! I can see the difference lighting makes looking at the before and after.

Now my issue is her lips. Does the updated version make them look smaller somehow? I can't put my finger on it but they look like completely different lips which is a shame. Also color could be off because of the map as it looked the same in different lighting.

From what I can tell, the color part of the bottom lip is wider, being a single matte color, and the top lip is fully arced downwards on seemingly all the mouths, deleting the upper lip. You can see it a bit better in the side view on my first post. It's quite weird

Thank you for this.

I did some comparisons yesterday and found that it is the same size as the current lips. Current lips are fuller on top whereas the newer model is fuller on the bottom. Current lips also lack a cupid's bow and are more oval-shaped. Not to mention we went from matte lips to gloss which will also change the appearance of the lips. I still prefer the older lips model without the cupid's bow. I thought it was a unique trait of Lalafell's.
