Model Work (BTS #6) (Patreon)

Edit: I forgot to provide some context. The beach scene was an earlier test render featuring the cast for Week 1 love interests. After Oxar, MC will meet Etty and then Cassica. All told, there will be 2 males, 1 female, 1 andro, and 1 futa characters available to romance for Week 1.

After the previous BTS was posted, I was inspired to work on Cassica a little bit. The original version above is sandwiched between Ehrlynn and Etty. The futa graft was causing issues so I deleted it for this pic (from my old F95 dev thread). If you look closely, you can see the green tint in her hair which was supposed to be an indication of what royal family she came from. I now felt that conflicted with Ehrlynn's already dark green saturated color palette, so I changed it.

This is my v2 of Cassica. In the top pic, Ehrlynn came up to her shoulders, in this version she only as tall as Cassica's breasts.

I will have her undergo another design iteration for a bunch of reasons. A character who is a giant requires all sorts of special considerations. Besides the interiors they would occupy, the model itself might have unusual compatibility issues when scaled up.

Compatibility issues like whatever is going on with the skin of her right elbow. Also, the armpit hair isn't supposed to be that thick. I had to swap it out because the original set, that matches the finer hair (like on her arm), started floating.

Some might say "Delete the hair then, who wants hairy feminine characters anyway?" I do, and body hair doesn't have to be unsightly. Look real close at her arm, belly, and breasts (for science). The strands are so fine that its more like an added detail. Not to mention the peach fuzz on her face which you can barely see in this shot.

That may seem like a lot of justification for body hair, but I'm not fan of the Western standard of how women are "supposed" to appear. Which is why Cassica's backstory is going to deal with how she resisting the standards that her royal title demands she uphold.

I still haven't figured out pubic hair for futanari though. There are no pubic hair assets that I know of that will accommodate a penis with scrotum and a vulva. I would buy one immediately if it existed, but I will more than likely have to custom make it with Daz's strand-based hair editor. The pubic hair in this last pic is the upper portion of a hair model that is hidden by the genital graft.

Since I'm still iterating, this version will be shelved until a later time. Perhaps by then I'll have a better understanding of how to deal with the unique problems giant characters present.
