Byakugan eyes version


Hi there! This is my 4th Naruto Image, this time i decided to model Hinata. Initially i wanted to portray her in a battle, but it wasnt quite working so i trashed the idea and decided to put her in a cute pose.
Her Byakugan eyes were quite challenging. I needed to create eyes that were truth to the character while making them not look to dull nor unrealistic. in the end i added some pupils that still gives the strangeness that i was looking for while not looking too cartoonish.
Unlike the other naruto characters of myne , i decided to give a try to polygonal hair this time, even i also made a hair&fur version. But the hair rectangular/bowl haircut style wasnt quite working as i wanted, so i went to the polygonal approach to the end. It looks far less realistic, but i believe it stays more truthful to the character.
This is my first time using DOF in a image, hope it works.
Anyway, hope u guys like it.
The model was done in 3Dsmax, retouched in zbrush.
The matte painting and character textures were done in photoshop and this picture was rendered using brazil r/s.
