Amanda Jones - Winter Outfit 2

I've changed the sweater and made a custom texture for this one. It's not as tight but it dForces nicely and I like the wrinkles. The neck and hems are much better.
This is a 4k render by the way. It's the first time I feel she's stood up to zooming in!
This picture originally had glasses, but I took them off her as they were spoiling a really lovely view/angle of her face. I've been making daily changes, ever smaller, until today I was literally tweaking a few things by 1%. She's finished and she's ready.
As a consequence I will now be dropping the 'Genesis 8' prefix, as she's just Amanda, and that's it! All my previous ten years have been an effort to get the look that we see now. The software and the character have moved slowly from animated proportions to realism. We're not yet at photographic quality with the software and honestly I don't want that. Once you reach photo quality renders then everything has to be 100% authentic or it's upsetting for the eye. I am pretty happy with this level of realism. I can still cheat a little and be stylised.
For those of you who read my references list, maybe you'll see the Olivia Wilde influence in this and separately the Neve Campbell essence of the last one. I'm not consciously aiming for either in particular but given the work I've put into Amanda's face it's satisfying to see those little glimpses when they catch you unsuspecting.
I think I am going to commit to this hairstyle now for College and Adult Amanda, i.e. from anything over 21yrs and with all the more formal and glamour shots. I love the other one too but I am going to keep that for Young Amanda and especially her CYOA pics. This you see above is what Amanda grows into after she survives the CYOA. Mrs Shrapnel won't recognise her hardly when she comes back after Summer term.
UPDATE - I will also post the glasses version (non postworked) on the Discord server.
PS - If you want to know why I like this kind of skin tone turtleneck sweater, you only need to watch John Carpenter's Assault on Precinct 13 and you'll quickly see why.

Can you imagine having someone that looked like this, working in your office?

She's quite lovely here. Very professional looking, yet sexy as well. I think you nailed the sweater look. Looks great on her. And normally I like the eyeglasses look, but I think you made the right decision on leaving them off this time.
