My thoughts also. The face now looks excellent from the front, but from the side profile it looks like it needs some work.

What's she look like side-on? (as in, exactly side on). There's something going on there -- maybe she lacks a brow ridge, like her forehead just follows the bridge of her nose like a big ramp? Hard to say from the shots.

Texture-wise, it's looking superb; I'm really liking the dress, and you did a greeat job on the lips. I think the hair's going the right way, up top at least; down the bottom, it would appear to be... a mullet.

Business at the front, party at the back -- like her apartment, in reverse!

She does look older ZP, but I think that was part of her story. She was an actress that had past her prime, and was moving into politics.

The shoulders are broad, but they taper down properly. I'm not sure how to interpret the character of Maggie Chow into physique. This otherwise slender model seems right.

Her face is slanted backwards oddly, and I dislike that. It could easily be a trick of the perspective, as we've seen with a few of the promo shots for various things. Hard to tell without a manipulable wireframe.

Jade earrings are a nice touch, though the chain is green.

Alex is becoming quite the 2025 fashion designer.

Thanks, I didn't look it up. I remembered the number 2025 as applying to something in DX, something like JC's birth or Paul's, etc. Anyway, insert the correct year into what I said earlier :)

2025 is just retro.

Great textures and model, but as said the face has a strange backwards slant and IMO there's something wrong about the head to torso size ratio. Either the body has too broad shoulders, or the head is too small.

Just played abit around in Photoshop, to me it looks like the head is definitly too small, here's a picture to compare:

I have to agree with CaptainObvious.

EDIT: Although to say the truth, I would think that something in between would be best...

I know I probably resurrect an old thread like this, but I have to ask, what happened to the Maggie Chow model in HDTP and why was it never added to the final?

Read this thread.

Or if you want to save valuable time (trust me on this one), here's the short version: people complained, so no Maggie Chow model in HDTP.

When will people realize you can't satisfy people? At least she looked Asian. I still can't believe she was not released because people didn't like her profile or head shape/size. I mean like I said she was/is Asian. What do you expect? Lucy Lui from Kill Bill?. Some people just like to hate on everything nowadays... I am not talking to any specific person just people in general man, I found it in all forums. Especially hardcore fan basis like MGS, and DX. I still haven't figured out why :-k
