October 2015 Challenge - Shawnster

[Shawnster]

I do not know who to credit for the Constellation Class mesh, nor the original Grace Park in Starfleet manipulation.

I'm sorry to say it, as I try to always be supportive, but that person is horrifying. The proportions are so bizzare as to be unsettling.

That's why I've got this preview up. Feedback. Gives me time to make adjustments before deadline

I was gonna suggest it was an "she's an alien" thing, but the area where neck meets the head is off.

 

[Shawnster]

I was going for this effect: http://www.psdbox.com/tutorials/new-manga-effect-2011-photoshop-tutorial

Anime look, bigger eyes, smaller nose, smaller lips.

 

[Albertese]

The face isn't the terrible part (though the nose does have a disturbing Michael Jackson quality to it...). The body is all weird, though. And the edges are very rough in a way that sets it apart from the edges around the face.

And again, it's the proportions. The head:neck:shoulders ratio is all wrong, even for anime/manga.

Again, don't take this as harshing on you, I am trying to help you out by sharing with you what I am seeing.

Right in the middle of the Uncanny Valley for me.
