Hi paramount,
thanks for the compliments ... I'm doing my very best ...
As for the lighting ... I work with the standard lights of poser as long as a figure isn't completed and posed in a scene. Than, with scene around and so on, the light have to be created specificly.
But for rigging, testing, dressing, texturing etc. I opposite to a lot of people find the standards not so bad. I think in that phase it's only interesting to have ever the same light to be able to compare the results you get e.g. using different shaders and so on ....
For the hair wig ... Lt. Ellis was for sure a very cute girlie but have a compare to Lt. Harrington and I find that Ellis hair looks a little bit topped, in german slang we say it looks like a "Fifi", a not very neat/nice description for a toupet that isn't right in place or is as cheap that you ever see it's not real.
I personally love the style of Harrington more there the hair arches are much tighter to the eyes. But for sure it's a matter of personal taste.
Thats also the point I used a more deep red for the lipstick opposite to the original. But as far as I remember in the 70ties both styles are common ... Allowed was what suits ...
