To me, it is like yours is the daughter of the original one, which is not bad

Also sometimes in general there is a situation that copycat is better than original.

In my eyes this is such a situation

I will have to agree with you, just can't deny.

The whole point when trying to copy something is to not copy just everything, to bring some variation.

I'll admit I didn't understand exactly whats going on here. Is Hanami from deviantart your OC? Or, as I think is the cadê, is copycating her? If os the later I agree with @tr3los! Yours os better in several points!

It's great to be inspired from amazing renders you see online and get these results! I would advise you to play a little bit with the face and eye controls on PoseEdit to give her more expressiveness. If she's an XBody model, you can even refine those expressions further!

Hanami is a g8f character made by Devious Dolls. I don't own this asset.

The render above was done by some dnicoll artist at deviantart, link: https://www.deviantart.com/dnicoll1/art/Hanami-by-Horizon-Dolls-2-930556733

I liked it a bit and tried to replicate, while going for some things in details and while keeping some stuff more personal, not to mention technical difficulties when trying to do that.

I played more than just a bit, but sadly that is all what I was able to achieve. Some problems comes from my lack of skills, some problems are more or less technical, some draws from the limitations of this game engine, etc. and some parts (silly me) I just forgot to tweak. I'm not going again over this to improve/fix/remake it anyway.

She is not an XBody model, but if you consider this a challenge and you have experience with Xbody expressions, then try and see what you can do. You always have the hanami model reference, as well as my copycat.

Sounds like a plan! What is that hair you got for your copycat? I don't recall seeing it before!

I think the hair used is Belinda Hair for Genesis 3 Female by SWAM.
