Who has Seen the Most Beautiful Women Rendered in 3D

#41

I’ve got another observation to bring to the table on the dark skin. If you look at the portraits of fine art all throughout history. The woman always has the fairer skin. This is because in art, a woman becomes the quintissential feminine archetype, someone who keeps indoors and does feminine things, not someone who spends her time working outside as the man does, which is why his skin is always darker.

Wow…such a fine line this discussion is taking, edging racial and sexist prejudice, but fortunately; in my opinion; it’s not there yet. Lunatique, you are handling it remarkably well, however I have two comments to make:
[ol]
[li]The emphasis on “subjective taste” is inaccurate. Taste, by definition is subjective, that is when the reaction among similar people to something is different. What you are referring to is the “collective taste”, which is the cultural accumulation of common taste. :)[/li][li]It strikes though, your analogy of beauty and taste is limited to color and facial features based on ethnicity. I always thought that beauty in human being is based on proportions, character, and idiosyncracies. But may be what I am referring to is the measure of beauty in a pure way, i.e. lustless. ;)[/li][/ol]btw, your comparison of architecture and female beauty is incredibly true.
Cheers

Interesting tread…Am I the only girl here?..
She’s one of my favorite. I also think that all the cg character (men and women) created by Francisco Cortina are the best, magnificent, excellent and impressive, no matter what color, ethnicity, shape, they are just stunning.
I agree with you Ashakarc. Luna I find what you say very interesting but I can’t relate with you. I live in Canada, a lot of asian people immigrate here and when I meet new people (asian) I keep getting the same request, is to meet caucasian people, especially asian men want to meet canadian girls…:shrug:

Beauty is in everyone

Whoaa momma! She purdy!

Seeing Milou’s post reminded me that i reckon mirage from the incredibles is really stunning - there are countless perfectly made photoreal supermodels around already, but the stylisation and facial animation on her is frickin excellent. She was what inspired me to make my bunny girl!

As a slight twist to this fascinating thread, do you think women can judge a beautiful woman and Men judge a good looking Man?
I know I’m totally lost when trying to guess what male film stars would appeal to Women. Nearly all the girls I know put Viggo and Cloony very high on their desire list but I would have thought them ugly :shrug:

#46

That is where you see that it’s pretty subjective. I admire the work made on that model, but there’s something I don’t like about her. She remind me of Keanu Reeves. :eek: Each time I see that picture I imagine Neo saying: Woh! :smiley:

Cheers!

#47

I thought the same thing. It’s Keanu with bigger lips.

You are so right Jeepy, you pinpointed it for me, I think the model is beautifully made but I too felt something, it’s like a boyish with feminine traits and girlish with masculine traits, but I still think it’s beautifull.

Oh and Clanger, yes some men can judge beauty in other men, my gay friends for example and my boyfriend, he’s an artist, so I think he look at human body and faces more like a sculpture, he sometimes agree when I say that a man is handsome, doesn’t matter men or women, although, we don’t always have the same taste, viggo is up there for me too…:love: (with jonny of course). I think it depends on men, I find it funny when a men think it’s “gay” or would say “I dunno, I’m not gay” when you ask them if they find this guy or actor handsome.

I forgot to include the link to the website of Francisco Cortina, he kick butts when it comes to human cg character and textures… http://www.cortinadigital.com/

All men can see beauty in other men, if not there’s something seriously wrong with em.

I saw on discovery (or maybe NGC) once that there’s a rule that defines beauty (well we call it beauty) worldwide.
From research scientist discovered there can be put a measured out wireframe on a human face that should be the blueprint of the ultimate beauty.
It’s all about symetry and scale between eyes, nose, mouth and the jawline and thanx to the research scientist found out this mask is defined as most atractive in the whole world and is accepted by every culture and rase, same goes for the human body BTW.
It’s not about the exact measurements, but the scale between features compaired to eachother, like width of eyes compaired to width of nose compaired to width of mouth, and it would fit on every ‘beautifull/atractive’ human being worldwide.

edit: here’s the website: http://www.beautyanalysis.com/index2_mba.htm

It’s “Proportion” :wink:

#51

I must agree elastigirl is one of the finest

#52

For all of you that said Elastic girl is your idea of the hottest–were you guys being tongue-in-cheek? Because if she actually existed in reality looking like that, you’d be really weirded out by her. :smiley:

#53

It’s not a matter of not seeing beauty in other men it’s seeing differently to the women around me.
I know if I had to pick a top ten out of a 100 my choice would be completely different to my sister’s or girlfriend’s.
That’s what puzzled me.

#54

I understood that, I replied on Milou saying SOME men can see the beauty in other men.

@ashakarc: euhm yeah that’s what I meant:D

#55

hahahaha DUDE! I’m actually amazed. How can someone go through all that time in 3D without modelling something that’s not a scandally clad person? (sorry, don’t want 1929 biting me in the ass…but to clarify: not male)

hey yall. long time lurker, first time poster.

here’s some more on that marquadt beauty mask:

ever since i read da vinci code a couple of years back i’m quite fascinated by this stuff. i didnt know about all the phi/golden number/golden rule stuff before. it also dovetails nicely with the conspiracy-theorist in me.

:slight_smile: Well one of my favourites is this one:

Maybe also, because she is a bit of all worlds…

Somtimes i find asian “pretty” girls boring, maybe thats because i am european…
But in the end you can see beatuy in alot things.
CG girls are most of the time to perfect, at least in my oppionion, but artist are getting there. Still its not often that a cg girl makes a big impression on me.

Well, but i know, my taste in girls, real or cg, is mad, most of the time, i dont have the same wavelength it seems like most western guys have…

Anyway, a interesting to read topic, very nice one!

That website has come up before, and I should mention that it is worthless BS. The person who did that “research” is not much of a scientist, and not even close to being an artist.

Look at that pathetic page he calls “the evidence” and how he picks for example an african woman with very western facial features and proportions, when in reality a lot of georgeous women in africa and asia have much broader noses than that scientist prefers, but he just chooses someone very a-typical as his example in order to gloss over that diversity from his norms. A lot of georgeous women also have much fuller lips than his mask dictates, but he just superimposes the mask over the woman that would have cut her lower lip in half, and then pretends that the mask is the sign of beauty not the fuller lips that deviate from it.

Also note how the women he features are never a “10” - being very average mostly pushes someone towards being an 8 or so… lacking obvious defects, but not having that “extra something” eye-catching or noteworthy which artists are always trying to pursue and which that scientist seems not to notice at all.

The theory is quite sound however, look at how consistently plants and animals alike, provided they live in regions where there’s light to see form, grow in the ‘golden’ ratio. His implementation is general and topical but not at all wrong.

All science is an approxmimation, not an absolute. He’s only denominating, I say he’s right. But I also say you are right in the fact that something special needs to be there, but I’m guessing you could find the sme ratio along those faces the mask would look differently yes, but still with the same underlying geometric guidelines.

I don’t have reference, but I know of some interesting scientific studies that show that a person’s ideal beauty – and don’t be too weirded out by this – is basically their parents. Ideal features and beauty are established when you are in infancy, based on who you see, and since you see your parents the most their features get melded together to form a ‘perfect’ mate.

Of course, this is for individuals and many people feel the need to conform to a ‘national’ or ‘cultural’ standard of beauty so we develop those, but I think that in reality each person is very different, and there is scientific evidence that beauty is based on who you see most as an infant.

Just thought you’d like to know…
