Preview of Kaya's new look

Hello everyone and welcome to this very first post for The Hunter 2. Through the coming months I'll try to post content as regularly as possible in order to tease you content from the game before its first release in early 2020. One of the biggest thing I'm currently working on for The Hunter 2 is the character reworks. The goal is to find a good balance between keeping the essence of the original look and modernize it thanks to the evolution of the 3D model. The new look of some characters will also give hints as to how they evolved between The Hunter and The Hunter 2. Kaya was, of course, the very first character I reworked. It was long. VERY long. I keep a little file to report how many hours each rework took me. Kaya was definitely the longest. She took me 11 hours to reach that result. It probably doesn't look like it but I tested A LOT of haircuts and especially A LOT of clothes sets. The main question was: "Do I try to stay close to the original design so that people could enjoy the undressing element as much as before?" At first, I wanted to do so. But no matter what I tried, it was TOO close from her look in The Hunter. I decided to create a bigger gap (at the risk of making thigh-high socks fans angry :x) and changed her style more. To be totally honest, I'm quite proud of what I achieved. The clothes combination works fine and they reflect Kaya's gain of maturity. Hair-wise, it was also a real puzzle. While I liked her original hairstyle it suffered from what I call the "glue syndrome". Basically outside the bangs, everything seemed glued together. Another problem was the fact they were dependant of the bones of the neck, making some scenes a bit surreal with Kaya having sometimes bangs twice longer from a pic to another :x So I decided to change it. I first checked on the ponytails, but none of them were really satisfying (or had a color close from the original one.) In the end, instead of trying all the hair-cuts I had, I searched directly on the store of Daz and fell on that haircut. It looked nice. Neither too short nor too long, a bit original, it had a color close to Kaya's hair color... So I bought it. And the result is pretty satisfying. Lastly there's a small thing I also changed: her "grown up" dial. I own a morph allowing a character to look younger. Kaya had it for The Hunter. The dial was only at 25% (100% leads to characters the age of Sophie), but I reduced it to 10% only and it changes a lot. She's slightly taller and her arms/head/torso proportions are more "adult-like". Additionnally I sliiiiiiiiiiiiightly gave her bigger boobs, but it's really small, I'm not sure you'll be able to tell the difference ^^' That's all for now. As you can expect, I'll make another post that will be public to reveal Kaya to everyone. I won't do this with all characters, though. And the 100 Yens level will give you access to a little image pack I'll compile for each girl where you can see them with a different combination of clothes ;) https://mega.nz/#!YtkBlYDD!FbvmAy8SxVGNUuXNeJ9otvJpKo-cWgeBTWTAD6s1gKA I'll see you in a few days to reveal the new girl! Thank you for your support!
