Dawn 2.0 Underway

This curve is perfectly natural. According to my podiatrist, some people have the toe curved inward (like in the photo), and other people (like me) have the toe curve outwards. These are just natural variations

Please rope in Maelwenn, Virtual World, Ken1171, & EmmaAndJordi to make new characters, morphs, expressions, & outfits for Dawn 2 as simultaneous debut releases, if IN ANY WAY possible. Please implement ALL of Ken1171's fixes for Dawn 1 in Dawn 2 out of the box. Please have Dawn 2 include all clones for V4thruV8F so that she instantly has a wardrobe.
I'd REALLY like to support Dawn 2, but if her release is just Dawn 1 take 2, then it's nigh impossible to envision.

I've moved your post to the Dawn 2 thread, so you can read about Dawn 2.0.

I wanted to note that we can not legally include ANY clones for DAZ products or any other non-HiveWire products. The shapes belong to the creator of the product. People can make their own clones.

Okay, all the toe reworking of topo is complete. Toenails are gone. New ones need to be placed still. Then I need to tie the toe topo into the foot. This is coming along. Like I mentioned before, once the topology has been reworked then I'll do the reshaping, and resizing.

Wow, this looks amazing. Time for me to buckle up and be more creative again :)
I was pretty long absent from art. Months..had such a horrible inspiration and creativity break down, that I really thought to quit the 3D world. Now I am back and see such an exciting news :)

BOOM HERE IT IS!!!

We now have a completely reworked Dawn 2.0 mesh. This is a total quad mesh as well, no triangles or 5 sided polys.

I'm going to hand this over to Paul tonight or tomorrow now. I do still need to retopo Dawn's teeth, gums and tongue. But I can do that while Paul begins his reworking of Dawn's new rig.

Here are some screen grabs of Dawn 2.0, showing the resized and reshaped toes and complete foot. Toenails have been added now and shown on some of these images.

The orange wire frame is Dawn 2.0 shown against the current Dawn SE in white wire frame.

Hmmmm, they do look long-ish in the full shaded mesh, but if you look at the first wireframe screenshot Chris posted, her foot looks smaller, and more delicate, than Dawn's SE's foot.
