coming along nicely.
one crit; looking at the front shot, on her blouse underneath her breast to her armpitt, that area seems very flat. almost running a 90 degree angle under her arm pits, while near her waist there is a little more curvature.

Hey Vlad

Yeah good spot, I'd done some creases there that I was happy with and deleted those and didnt reshape it. Will do later on..

Hey Mirek

Thank you...Crits or questions are all welcome.

Im using mirror instancing to model it. The seam down the middle will need a tweak toward the end of modeling to 'blend' it in. But as far as the seams visibility goes, its just the viewing angle.

Time wise on this model, I really couldnt say, though I wish I could spend a full day on it to really push ahead. Because of other work its been a case of 5 minutes here and 1hr there ya know. Its a little frustrating somedays when I have to bring home my day work and do that. Even though its Maya related, I like to keep home and day work well away from each other. Hopefully though in the next week or so I should be able to pick things up a little quicker as Im coming to the end of some freelance work...watch this space user added image
