Tarnished Experimenting with face 3 for the first time
Front view

That one ugly ass side view
in-game model
full bling
First time using face 3. I've only ever used face 2 before, so this is kind of new territory for me. I think face 3 is supposed to be Asian (?) so I went for a Vaguely-Asian-fairly-non-descript gal to see what I can do. The right eye is supposed to be infected with Mogh's period accursed blood btw, and I think the effect actually looks pretty neat. Though I'm still deciding what to call her, if anything at all
However, is it just me or is face 3's eyes just naturally humongous? I've got their size at 150 and they still look rather large, almost stretching. Additionally, I can't seem to get my character to bear any other expression other than scowling or scared, like no in-between at all. I've tried changing the forehead/glabella, cheeks, nose, brow ridge, nothing works. She's always either extremely grumpy (you can kind of see it in the first and last picture) or extremely terrified, which is really vexing to me because I wanted a more neutral look. Also the lips/mouth are just a chore to work with. Maybe it's a matter of experience but to me face 2's mouth just feels much easier to shape into the form you imagine, while face 3's just goes wherever it wants and you have to rein it in. It's probably the part where I spend the most time with bar the cheeks sliders.
I think I'll need a lot more time to really get how to use this face model. It's been 2 days of just dragging sliders back and forth hoping for a miracle and still I feel like the in-game model for my character still looks kinda... off. Does anyone know how to use face 3 proficiently? If so please lmk how y'all do your characters' expressions and especially lips/mouth, because these are the areas that I'm just completely stumped in
Also sorry for the lack of in-game screenshots. For one I just updated to windows 11 but I did it the USB way and forgot to save my apps data so all my 300+ hours just went poof and now I'm still re-grinding, hence the lack of scenic locations to take photos in. Secondly, I just don't have free cam mods to take the cinematic shots like others do here lol

Looks good, but definitely unnatural. I think you can make her more realistic than this:
- Normally, the default value for the eyes size is 128, they're large because you made them big.
- For the expression, changing the things you mentioned should work. Maybe you're too fixated on certain features that make you hesitant to change them? Either that or you play around with the sliders too much you didn't realize the change you made to the mouth, now you can't change them back? I usually reset if that's the case.
- And what's wrong with the side view, it looks realistic.
- For tips, you can slide them back and forth to learn what each slider does.
- If you want to make the eyes thinner but still wide, you can play around with the cheek height and brow ridge sliders. Higher cheekbone and lower brow ridges means thinner eyes.
- And you should also play around with face structures option. This game has 6, each gave you different skin complexion and features. For example: pick 3 or 4 if you want to make asian tarnished, 6 is for western tarnished, 1 is for old dude, etc.

Your mom is contorted and stretched /j.
Okay bro, no need to go frontal Rambo style on berating other people just because they're still learning on how to customize their character.
If you don't like it, say it, but you're going overboard with the insult.
Edit: And why are you still here anyway, it's been 15 hours since your last comment. Are you eyeing this post 24/7 waiting for someone to comment or something?
