Description
Another installment in my on again off again project to make a v3 version of T'Pol (played by Jolene Blalock) from the show Star Trek: Enterprise. Some of you requested more T'pol, so here's the latest progress on her. I'm up to mark X4 (14), and you may note an improved ear shape, skin texture (uses some actual Jolene Blalock Skin features taken from hi res photos), and pushed in philtrum as improvements over my earlier attempts.
Here we also see my latest attempts to give her some accurate clothes from the later seasons, which while I like the results so far, is no where near done.
To be perfectly honest, trying to paint straight lines on the V3 catsuit is a complete bitch and a half due to the shoulders, arms and backside being in completely different places on the texture map. You can see that here where the horizontal strip on her chest just ends, that's where the shoulder texture begins (a completely different spot on the tex map for both left and right arms). The fact that the legs on the tex map spread out in a "Y" fashion make me rack my brain on how to continue the diagonal stripe pattern all the way done her thighs without warping.
In short, by the time I get the lines right by trial and error no one will even be using V3 anymore! I'm tempted to start over with a V4 version perhaps. Other than that I can show this model as a portrait, in decent T'Pol pjs, in her starfleet grey underoos, and of course nude...
Aside from putting 3 renders together as one there's no postwork on this one.

Excellent personnage!!!
well, never watched it enough to really get to know the character, but I like it anyway :P
Quite good looking. The facial morph is very well done
Fantastic! An excellent work!
She looks great so far, for the UV map, you may be able to correlate the dots on the original UV texture map from Daz, otherwise its just trial and error. For the neckline, it would be cool to add some fake shadow so the second skin looks like it has depth. Other than that- pure perfection!
A nice work, just don't give up you get closer every time!
Nice Ears!
She looks amazing, I'd say your progressing nicely. As for the texturing being a nightmare, you've done brilliantly despite the problems.
Ponfar, for sure.
Great likeness and awesome work!
T'pol mark X4 is looking pretty damn' good to me, nice work on the ears and skin, not sure how to fix the clothing, I guess like JD said, tweak, tweak and tweak some more ! ~Cheers~ :o)
hehehe excellent job.... :)
She's looking fabulous! Such an interesting character.
She looks fantastic!!! What hair is that?
That darned suit's in the way! LOL. Great progress. :)
Awesome work Pete!!!! Really amazing my friend!!!
A wonderful SF work with this real attractive looking lady! Love her outfit and her face and expression!!!
Very nice T'Pol. Would be great to see more of her.
It's always nice to see your works in progress!
No complaints about using V3, I mean I'm not knocking your V4 version but trust people will still use V3. Heck some people still use Posette so don't give up so soon.
Fantastic Bro, your doing such a damn great job! your a fantastic artist keep it up becouse while i am away from rosity (as in waiting on our high speed internet to be hooked up at the new house) i'll be working on something that YOU :D inspired me to make and its only in its first stages right now so you gunna have to wait for it lol. A+ 5

Great image and progression on her.
Holy cow this is good, nice work for sure!!
Very close likeness, right down to the pout! I'd like to see her with darker/brown eyes! What hair is that you uses, it's perfect? :)
Excellent work!
She looks really amazing...bravissima!V:DDD.Hugsxx
I'll be using V3 for a longgggggg time, V4 in a cool costume crashes my PC! Besides I like V3 better!! Even if I was using V4 though, I dust off V3 for the MK XXVVII (LOL!)
getting better and better i like the way that actress looks and you have captured her
Looks remarkably close to the real thing. Very well done!
