thats one big blade - i like the way you've developed this! :)

Very nice model, I bet this would sell really good as an action figure statue, I would definately put it on my desk, I 've always had a soft spot for girls with glasses ;-)
Very nice job!

all your characters always have really BIG boobs..... just an observation ... she thinks the boobs are way to BIG ....

Me on the other hand ...

I am trying to upload it on other websites as well but i don't know any other ones besides the one above.

Benny....
I'm sure the VERY first thing you thought when you saw this was the HUGE blade
haha

More F-ING BIG breasts then the rest comes into focus haha.

Waht ya think Benny?

Good model, I myself agree with zapper's wife to a certain respect, guy's model characters to have big breasts WAY too often, women can still be beautiful with normal size breasts
my 2 cents.

I'd Hate to see the character's Chiropractor bill for back pains from lugging around big breasts AND a blade that looks like the next model of Gillete, the best a man can get, well with a woman like that.... hehe.

Nice model wish I could model like that.

Thanks for the comment **EagleWing1000**. True, some do model woman with big cup sizes. I was just trying to recreate the character from the anime series in 3D. Doing this was a big challenge and it helped me a lot in understanding different ways on how to use the zbrush tools a little more. To me honestly cup sizes does not matter to me unless she does not have a cup size (*sigh)

Considering though that she is in the imagined world of anime i don't think back pain problems would be a factor for her, unless she came into our world we live in :). I guess that just lets you know what you can get a way with in the world of imagination (men/women with fine bodies carrying and swinging around gigantic axes and swords that you and I both know are way to heavy for an average person to hold). 

I love the world of imagination.

Cool images.

Is the pink thong the same colour as the anime series?

Cos Personally I'd change the colour, as it's similar to the skin colour and looks at first like she's not wearing anything down there.

Something unique with her I think is that she's wearing glasses, a femme fetalé with bad eye sight hehe. JUST the type of super human I'd want saving my life with a giant sword that couldn't miss very much it was swung at, while I ask her to cut my handcuffs off and ask if she can see ok? for her to say "Yeah don't worry." heehe.

See? Pretty unique there.

One of these days Newhere you'll have to give us all a video on how you model characters.
Cheers.
EW

LOL.......Yeah at first when i was looking at the reference pics when modeling her and her outfit i thought the same thing.

As far as making a vid yes in the future when i am not that busy and i have tub loads of free time cuz the video will be really long.

:)

Cool, I've just an hour ago or so ordered Larry Shultz' Character Training DVD set at £230 so it better be as good as he says it is lol. I think he'll be the one buying me a drink if I ever get to meet him hahaha.

Be good to see how other artists like yourself model characters.
greatful Newhere.
