Description
~Suzuka~Once upon a time on Earth I get tired of using the same old Poser figures, and I go in a journey searching for something new to work with. This time I've got my grubby paws over this little girl, originally created by Mattaku for Metasequoia. She's really low poly (3914 faces total), with less geometry than AnimeDoll's head alone - even after I remodeled her body to make her more rounded and also to add more body details. She has some funny feet!
Finally, she comes with a bikini that was useless for Poser rigging, so I created this new one with 300 faces total. Gosh, enough of technical mambo-jambo! 
Hope you like her and thanks for coming by!

Because I received a phone call from God he He told me not to create toes here.

That's a lot of faces!

hehe, something like 3,900 faces may look like a lot, but in reality it's very low and not even enough to create the just the head of the other models I use in my pics. ^_^

Eee, seems like you did a lot of work! I wish I could do stuff like that!
I really like her face... I'm not sure if it's just the angle you've posed her in but, from this view the face seems much more appealing than AD's. Really cute eyes and nose!
...the toes are by far the best part, however. 
Awesome work!

One good thing about things like this is that everytime I rig a new model I end up learning something new and useful. For this model it was how to fix faceted parts without necessarily adding more geometry. Sometimes that can be fixed just by moving the existing vertexes around.

Thank you! I couldn't resist converting this model to Poser once I saw the lowpoly version of her.

Suzuka's cute... Shame about the toes ^_^ Nice work!

Thanks! Many Japanese modelers ommit toes when making lowpoly models. Looks like that's common practice. ^^

I'd love to create characters like the little witch you get with Metasequoia (one day maybe)
She's a nice improvement. very cute.
I'm starting to think you really love rigging

Little Metesequoia witch? Where? Link? ^_^

She's called 'witch' in the meta folder

I see 9 MQO models there, but none is a witch. There is fish, cat, fly, princess, etc. Maybe you have a different version? ^^

This is version 2.3.2. And yours?

Hahaha, does that mean newer versions come with LESS contents? LOL

So have you tried modeling anything in MQO so far?

not anything good... it's hard to start off when you're a real newbie to 3d modelling and not sure what to do. I did manage to make a skirt following some of ~lelu 's tutorials. I Picked up hexagon at daz too while it was $1.99 so i may have a try at that.

I'd like to hear about Hexagon and what's good about it. I have already tried so many different 3D modeling programs, I've got a bit tired. I've stayed with 3DSMAX this far, but I am always open to alternatives that ease the creation of symmetric models such as characters and clothes. ^^

Well, what about Blender 3D? It's the most popular and well supported 3D modeling program out there, where even an entire 3D movie is being produced using it as of this writing. I mean, nothing can be cheaper than... free? Look here --> [link] for more details.

I have blender on my pc but the interface is so....

If you think Blender is complicated and overwhelming, wait until you see Maya...

I personally think Maya can be overwhelmingly complicated, and that's one reason I prefer 3DSMAX over it. Maya has the steepest learning curve and it took me ages to learn it. To me 3DSMAX is more visual, intuitive, and straight forward - but not as powerful as Maya. Maya's UV tools are way better than 3DSMAX, which looks messy and cumbersome in that area. In the end it's a give and take. ^^

Amazing colour and proportions! Although, she does need some toes... ^_^
Great work! FAVE!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks! Truth is that I've spent so much time to improve her chest and torso that I've got tired and decided to leave her toes alone.
Her face was also had to be reconstructed because she originally didn't have any eyes, those were only textures. Here she is featuring real 3D posable eyes. ^_^
The fingers would also not bend properly because of insuficient geometry and those had to be fixed. I think the hands look beautiful now and pose quite well.
I am glad enough she is still under 4,000 faces total after reconstructed for Poser, since that was the target poly count.
She is still low poly enough to be used in real-time in a game engine!

nice work. Yer u did a nice job, by what I can make out of the description of the other model

Thanks! Hehe, Suzuka went through a number of plastic surgeries to have some breast implants and extra body details.
I want to post a pic of Mattaku's original as soon as I learn how to render with Metasequoia. ^_^

Hehehehe... plastic surgeries and implants? Bad Suzuka, hehehehe

Oh but it was for her own good - the original breasts were more like cubes, hahaha

Her feet aren't amazing butr it's still as nice as ussual !

Thanks! The only thing is that she doesn't have toes.

Yeah, you can kinda see how it wazn't very good quality from the start, but I like the way you fixed it up. Love the face too ^^

I *love* reworking low poly models - I think they are the ultimate 3D modeling challenge!
Suzuka's breasts and front torso were the areas I remodeled the most because they looked horrible in Poser.
I was tempted to rig her breasts for bouncy animations but then reconsidered because I would first have to create morph targets for facial expressions, and that alone would be enough work for an entire week.

Speaking of ladies, I have a new model to rig. You should check it out

I just checked her out, looks cool!
Does she have facial morphs and a body?
