    We all have an archetype in our heads that we find attractive and do tend to follow that making chars. He looks great raider and non-raider. Especially love that shot of the dog looking down at Lobo lying on the floor.

      Thanks Pat! I did make progress on Caed to look more unique (https://live.staticflickr.com/65535/50190062746_ba8e55a0c8_k.jpg) and had a post but removed it a few seconds after posting it as I felt I wasn't ready to share that much about him yet. He will have that strong brutal feel to him that Lobo has because that is something they share ... but from what I heard from Isleen and Lidi he looks different enough now to be more distinct.

    Characters like Lobo come to life and take hold. Once they have, they are indelible.

    Looks awesome! Looks Lobo-ish! But looks great, so no big deal, right? Like him with the raider mohawk and all those muscles!

    We all have certain characteristics we just can't help but add to our creations. We like what we like. Great shots and the night one looks very real.

      Aye so very true. Making a follower or a random character I can break away okay. But making a character for myself that I find attractive as well - that is where they start to merge.

      I have the same issue. No matter what main char I start with, they always end up looking like one of two versions of the same gal.

      Aye - I think when you are a player who likes to really connect to their character and prefer a certain look ... it becomes extra hard to break away.

      Ironically before I posted things online the thought of worrying about characters looking similar never entered my head

    Those pants! Oh I like both iterations of your Caed! If I had to pick, I very much like the first two, even if you don't usually have them so clean, lol. Great shots of Doggo and Lobo, and good lighting too.

      Thanks Kes! I spent another 3 hours last night on Caed and not really making progress. Oh I can make him unique and a raider but he also has to appeal to me looks wise which is where it becomes harder. Will see where it goes

    Have fun making your new character -- always a fun thing to do. That vid said "dedicated to touching" -- yeah. Gawd, will we ever get back to that? It's been said that maybe we should never shake hands again (Fauci). And now you can't even see people's faces -- don't forget to wear your goggles. So dehumanizing.

      Thanks! Fun depends on whether he goes anywhere. I developed more back story on him but still not happy with looks.

      The video was released on May 18, 2020 so seems related to current situation. Yea I hate not being able to see people's emotions more clearly when wearing a mask. No easy answers although I feel the side-effects of COVID are larger and having more of a negative impact than the virus itself. But I certainly don't have any answers.

      I do like the song though - it was rather uplifting and positive to me. I also enjoyed all the shocked comments on youtube over it :P

    Version 1008 doesn't look bad, but I'm with Lidi. This One could be a perfect base to fiddle with his appearance an make him totally unique like Lobo and Fenn. He does look great, Jon...

    A very different MM Set compared to what we are used from you, but with some amazing shot. Love the one from Graygarden.

      Thanks Isleen! The image you linked is where I should have stopped lol. I am not sure why I didn't. That being said I saved games of the different steps so can retrace if needed. The image you linked is the closest to what I have in mind in my head. I had to wait to leave the vault to get that hairstyle as you can't access it at the initial creation stage (not in the vanilla editor anyhow and Lots More Hairs only has variations on the main not the actual main one). So I may continue more with that. Also make him more athletic as he isn't meant to be as bulky as Lobo. He is meant to be a lean tough charismatic raider boss (in looks anyhow - he won't be evil or nasty or the like).

      I am doing a ton of testing, tweaking, and ENB changing so my sets are really all over the place lately - just like my mood and emotions :P

      Hey James so nice to see you here! Hope you are well!

      Thanks for stopping by and aye I recall you like that hair style. It fits the raider image I have in mind for Caed but the question is if I can make him unique enough that he won't merge into a Lobo like character. Will see how it goes.

    Your ENB is like watching a film I m curious where you find all these topless outfits(research time), Haha your chars always look swole!

      Many thanks Denz! I was using a few ENB's in these shots - I am currently on the ENB Merry Go-Round and always changing to fit my mood. Luckily FW and PRC have a ton of built in variety as well. But I also used Railroad and Pathos in this set, along with the other two.

      I make a lot of outfits topless in Outfit Studio. Well thats the boring explanation. The more fun one is my characters are brutes and they always get torn to shreds and ripped off :)

      Thanks again!

    I encourage you Jon, to fiddle more with Caed and I'm sure, he will be unique, by the mean he will be different than Lobo or Fenn. :) Await to see, how he will progress. Or not progress. :D

      Many thanks Lidi! Also harder for me as I don't use looks menu or anything like that. I just use the vanilla editor. Makes it a bit harder. I mean I started with a totally different face preset for Caed than Lobo. Also different eyebrows, nose, lips, hair, beard ... but at the same time eyebrows are similar, full facial hair, dark color hair (even if using the dark red), still a thick nose, and similar bone structure. So difficult for me to break out of those habits of what I like.

      One reason I do like using other players presets for followers. I would have never been able to come up with Mac with out that preset, or Longfellow without the base I downloaded. But while I prefer that for a follower my own main I always want to make myself from scratch.

      Anyhow will see where it goes :)
