To be honest with you guys, I was a little nervous about this one. I know this model's popular and was going to not only be suggested at some point, but almost definitely win sooner or later. I put her up as an option to kinda get it out of the way. However, I wasn't sure that I'd be able to do much for her. The face morph is rough in a few areas, mainly the overlapping eyebrow and eyelid which messes with eyelashes (either base G8F or the custom ones included) and severely limits the posing of the eyes. I understand why it was done, but it's a problem nonetheless.

All that said, I think she came out alright. I decided to lean into her character sheet from the original Ben 10 series for the color palette as opposed to the original shaders on either of Skuddbutt's models. That. plus the shader settings from a few recent anime models. seems to have done the trick in getting her somewhere decent in Iray.

Ultimately, though, I'd still probably recommend trying another face/head morph if you're trying to do something with the character. Or maybe commission a port of the more recent v2.0 model instead :P

If you have any issues with the included resources, please let me know. Thanks!
