Don't worry, if that was a new Daz character, you'd still hear how V4 looked better and was more realistic. lol
lol, that's funny!
Mike huh? Got it! Meet G8F Saya for Mei Lin 8 now! J/K

Saya was a interesting trip to the Uncanny valley. And would be a good fit for Mei Lin 8.
They both look okay. Not the most realistic 3d models I've seen. But certainly a notch above what else is out there. Both characters are somewhat idealized.
I had trouble at least distinguishing both of them from real video of real people. They didn't let Saya get talkative & animated enough for me to just how good they did with her but for Mike he was almost spot on in everyway with just the big should coming was for flesh that wrinkled on his face his was too rigid - Russell Crowe's rubber mask makeup to be an on John Nash in 'A Beautiful Mind' has a similar problem. The big problem was that jaw was too stiff the be talking that fluidly and animately.
I haven't see better than Mike before.
I want this in Daz! Check out the way the skin moves - Incredible! And this was done over three years ago!
Awww, we couldn't afford him. Besides, he's not pretty enough for DAZ.
You're joking, but I actually tried to find her in the shop LOL too early.
The most impresive thing about Mike is he is rendering in real time (zero render time!) and maintaing that amont of realism.
Had me till the teeth.
@Serene Night "Both characters are somewhat idealized."
How exactly is Mike "somewhat idealized"?
That totally made me laugh!
The teeth killed it for me too. LOL. Thick little buggers ;)
