Description
Rendered in DAZ Studio 4.7 Pro Postwork in GIMP 2.8
Some of you may recognize this rutian beauty from someone else's gallery. Yep! You're looking at the one, the only, the incomparable Fernopatrix Zire! Well, my humble homage to her likeness anyways
. My good friend, 0biwanken0bie , gave me permission to recreate her for use in my own artwork several months ago. So, here and there, little by little, I've been piecing her together. I'd say she's still very much a WIP, but at least she's render-ready at this current version. I hope you like her. 
Many thanks again to 0biwanken0bie for allowing me to recreate his lovely SWTOR character.

If I were there, and she asked me that, I'd simply hold out my arm.
"Let's go Ms. Zire."

I have to say I did a double-take when I saw your version of Fern. She is simply stunning and that expression isn't fooling anyone hehe
Fantastic work on putting her together

Thank you very much! It's been a labor of love putting her together. It's not exactly torture to create when your reference pages are filled with 0bi's renders of Fern

Hehe I totally understand what you mean

It's very distinctive. Though the character design wasn't made by you, you managed to re-create it perfectly. Except for adding different clothes, which is fine. While I have no problem with some nudity, I prefer if your work gets credited for the talent behind it, not the amount of flesh that is shown on the picture. I know I've said it before, so I apologize for saying it again. There's not much to say, other than the re-creation, which was done perfectly. I only find the background a little dull. I can only judge by looking at the character, because I don't know her story. But I thought something with velvet tapestries, a rich environment would have been more appropriate. But again I don't know the character as well as you, so perhaps the background does suit her.

Holy smokes!!!!!!! You nailed her! Well... er, um, bad choice of words for that, lol! She looks fantastic! I love that vampy dress she's wearing too. I'm wondering how it stays up... the Force? The biggest thing I can't get over though, is the headpiece. I don't remember giving it to you, but it looks exactly like it right down to the texture. Excellent job. I also like her shy gentle expression. I can't wait to see what mischief she gets you into!
Awesome job my friend!

The emoticons you pick always make me laugh
It's been a labor of love putting her together. I have over two dozen renders of yours that I've tirelessly cycled through trying to get the details right. There are still differences like subtleties in the skin texture, placement and size of tattoos and that sort of thing. Like I said, this is a WIP of Fern. My attention to detail is still not satisfied with the likeness to your Fern.
The dress is actually the Jessica Rabbit dress by Pretty3D. I figured that it was appropriate since Fern steals the hearts of everyone who gazes upon her as well. How does it stay up? The gravity defying design that everyone wants to investigate so very thoroughly
Nope, you didn't give me the headpiece and I didn't ask for it. I took it upon myself as a challenge to recreate it. Here's the base mesh created in Maya:

Again, I studied your renders and found the best references out of them that I could to both figure out its shape and surface materials. There are some slight differences of course. I'm not a 3D copy machine lol. I'm glad that you approve though 
I tried to get the pouty look for her first appearance in my gallery. I figured it was appropriate since she's your character and that's your expression of choice
I only have one more render in progress for Fern, but she'll certainly have a continual presence in my gallery so long as you approve. I'm trying to go back through all of my notes. I've had many ideas in the past for renders of my OC's interacting with Fern and now they are all possible

He he! Those Spears icons are awesome! I'm one of those people who could never tire of looking at her...
Anyways, regardless of whether or not she's still a work in progress, she looks remarkably similar. And the fact that you did all of this without asking me for a single thing makes it all the more impressive. I know there are small differences... I can't help but notice them (I mean that in a good way, since I have her image burned into my brain from all the hours I spend with her in front of me), but you really did an amazing job with her. I look forward to seeing her take shape as you perfect her. I know you'll keep updating her bit by bit with each render, as I do the exact same thing. Always in motion, the future is, lol.
That headpiece is really nice - may even be better than mine, lol. I was actually in the process of updating hers if you can believe that, as it was one of the first things I made in my mad race to complete her. But back to yours... I really did do a double take when I saw it. I thought to myself, "I don't remember giving him the headpiece...". It was that good. You may not be a 3D copy machine, but you're getting things accomplished!
I agree with you partly on the G2F expressions. It does get easier, once you get enough time dealing with them though (and acquire enough morphs
You're welcome! I'm flattered you chose to create a version of Fern. I'm really, really, really flattered. Did I mention that I'm soooo flattered? Okay... I think you get the picture. I'll knock it off with the "Monday-morning-worship-service", lol! I can't wait to see what trouble you can get into with her.

I'm so very glad that you think so highly of my version of Fern. It really is so rewarding to receive such positive feedback from her creator.
I must confess that I did purposefully make some slight differences with the headpiece; more or less, I made it smoother. I'm not covetous of my work. If you'd like the headpiece, just say the word and I'll pack it up and send it your way. Once I crete a few more headpieces, I intend to make a pack to release to the Poser/Daz community. There isn't enough Star Wars content out there for us 3D artists and I'd like to help remedy that problem.
Thanks for the tip on Fern's expressions. I'm definitely going to tuck that tip away for use later
I'm really glad that I was able to please you with this homage. I don't know why, but I really wanted to keep my progress of her on the down low for the most part so that I could just surprise you with her. I like giving presents.
You keep mentioning me getting into trouble with her or getting her into trouble. Pray tell, what are you thinking I might do with the rutian beauty? I'm always open to suggestions.

Well... you know where there's Fern, there's always the possibility of naughtiness. I just ask that you keep me abreast of any bad behavior on her part.

I don't like to make any promises or get people's hopes up, but I'll keep you apprised. Ahem... did I say lekku entanglement? Must've been a Freudian slip or something. Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!

"opens door" yes, my dear, you can definitely join me anytime.
