@womball,Framedworld thanks for the feedback guys, I do agree with the skin shader, will do an improvement run there to tighten it up. I do have a corneal mesh I am missing the wetness layer mesh I got lazy… :slight_smile: maybe I should add some sort of fractal noise on the cornea everywhere but around the corneal bulge light does warp a bit around the contour of the eye.

@pimeto, first I tried with a flat mesh and marp deformed it, fail, then with vertex instancer, too much of a hussle, NEX has a pretty CTRL+Shift auto dupe on move so the brute force approach was definitely easier and ultimately time consuming as it sometimes is. There was a little bit more than such a flatline brainwave approach in the generation of the links though, there I selected all edges, made a selection set, triangulated the mesh selected the invert of the previously made selection set and duplicated curve on surface, then on the same inverted selection, I flipped the triangle edge and created new curves. Using the ZGXtrude script made it a simple task to extrude those hundreds of curves altogether :slight_smile:

thanks all!

oh thanks Magdalena!
the biggest challenge here was to render a 50ish yrs/old female that still looked like a woman…

I disliked the film becuase it was made by the wrong director who took the film for themoney and nothing else, he didn’t have a clue about the novels or so therefore could not appreciate what the serious had to say. the TV series was better because it is about the characters that count. Ironically some of the characters actually read the books and appreciated what the books were about. the movie was done on the back of the popularity of Star war which ironically (again!!) was inspired in some respects by Dune!!. All the Actors were wasted in the film, because of bad writing and bad scripts and mundane set design and dull wardrobe. Never give a Goth science fiction because it will miss the point, there are some great ideas and great potential characters but not enough. David Lynch should’ve stuck to weird arsed drama and waited for Ridley Scott.

I love this rendition of Helen as there was more character and the work on the eyes are great, imangine being at catholic school and getting into trouble, she’ll have a steer that could drive holes through wood (haha). great reimangining of a stand out character.
