TRU:Lara's Descent to the Underworld by Trangel

Originality: not very original but it\'s the second version the you have created so i gave it 8. Quality: very high quality, i seem to spend a lot of time doing that right. but... if you look, when lara\'s running, her sholders sort of sticks out of her body, like the joints are not connected properly (also there\'s this problem with the neck). so it\'s 7. Useable: it\'s like the classic, everywhere, everytime. 10 :p Custom textures and meshes: textures are almost all yours, and if they aren\'t you had to resize and cut em\' from renders. hard work indeed. ;) meshes: besides of the hands that you took from po yu and resized and the sholders i\'ve mensioned, all the best. specially the boots. :) sorry for my english. great work!

We\'ve waited for quite a while, but it was worth it. This TRU outfit is just fantastic, it\'s well built and the quality is superb. I\'m not a fan of the outfit itself, but you captured the TRU style very well and I\'m impressed with how you managed to get the hair looking just right. Originality: 8 It\'s a remake of a remake, so in effect isn\'t that original, but because of the new head it\'s higher. Quality: 10 Everything works perfectly, the joints all fit well and the new ones work seamlessly. The high vertex count together with good texturing means this has to be a ten. Textures: 8 This outfit really was well textured - some textures like the eyes and the top really impressed me, but I felt that you rushed the backpack and boots, they lacked detail and innovation, and there were a couple of spots around the ear and jaw that looked untextured. The hair was great, and the eye textures were just fantastic, so still an 8. Meshes: 8 The head was really impressive - the shape was good, the hair flawless, but a couple of things annoyed me. I thought the lack of eyelashes looked very strange, and I\'m certain she has had eyelashes in the screenshots of the outfit we\'ve seen. Each mesh itself was well done, but I felt as a whole it looked odd - the waist was too straight, the breasts too big, and the arms a little unnatural in comparison with the rest of the body. Also - although the nose looks fantastic as a mesh, I believe that because of the limitations of having to place each vertex directly on a point, and not allowing for decimals, it ends up being slightly the wrong shape and it gave Lara the impression of sneering slightly, and lit oddly in some environments. I would recommend personally that in future you stick to the simpler shape of nose you\'ve used in the past, and allow the textures to create the detail, rather than the mesh. It was a really great outfit, I hope you can use the textures from TRU itself when they come out to improve the backpack, boots, belt etc. [i]Edited by MaskedRaider[/i]
