Hey guys, can you give me your opinion on this? I'm thinking of changing her skin a little bit and make it more translucent. Since she's smaller than usual, light should go through her a lot more. You can see the differences mostly on her fingers and her face. The first image is how she's always been, the second is a bit more translucent, and the third is a lot more. I like them all so maybe I'll do something to mix translucency intensity on different body parts to keep the best of each versions, but please tell me what you think!

For me, I like all of these versions as well, but I think a good mixture of translucent and not translucent would be good. Like having translucence on body parts where the skin is rather thin, and having not so much translucence where the skin is thicker. For example at the fingers the skin could be thinner than on her belly ^^ And I think the second image is a good mixture, since the fingers seem almost see through on the third picture and I assume that there's still some flesh under her skin that keeps the light from getting all the way through. But I must add one thing: Great thought about details again, that you won't see in many other works from other artists. <3

Yea I wish I didn't have to selectively make body parts be more or less translucent, but since there's no bone and muscle in the model, I guess I have to fake it to have a realistic result :( Thank you so much! I guess sometimes I see my perfectionism as a huge flaw, but it can also be a strength if I set myself some reachable goals 😊

The fact that small details like this present a challenge for you just shows how passionate you are. It's the reason myself and many others support your work. I love the extra added detail and agree with @Sakura_no_Yukiko; A mix seems to work well for the miniature heroine. Thank you for your amazing work and including us in your process :)

I'm definitely passionate, but I call it crazy instead 👀 Yea I'm currently trying to get more red translucency too. It's definitely missing here, so maybe adding that will be enough and I won't have to bother mixing anything. 🤞 We'll see! I try to share as much as I can, but sometimes it's hard since it's very complicated and most people don't even understand what I talk about :c
