Latinx Characters

Granville · April 2019

Hello, everyone.

I am doing the images for a website that focuses on language testing. I am trying to represent the different students that we test. I found some excellent Indian characters at Rendo. But I am looking for Latinx characters now. I'm NOT looking for white facial features with dark skin. I would really like something that represents the unique facial features like Yalitza Aparicio from Roma. Any ideas?

She has a wonderful face, fabulous cheekbones... you could try dial-spinning, although if you're looking for pre-made I suppose not...?

I'm will try dial spinning. It would be nice to have a starting point. Sometimes I have a hard time the dial that matches the facial feature. It would be nice to find a description of facial features by ethicity. But many people are squimish about this. I want to reflect all of humanities beautiful variety regardless of western beauty standards.

Regarding the picture you linked to, her lips are slighted parted & the portrait lighting not ideal (so you'd need to use another skin texture) but the linked picture is a pretty good starting point to use FaceGen Artist Pro to create a morph for her in Genesis 8, Genesis 3, Genesis 2, or Genesis, it's up to you.

Have you seen the Benita character from the vendor Saiyaness?

Benita is my favorite Latina character in the store, I was going to recommend her as well :) . If you look in the store for javiermicheal he has some male characters that may work for you as well, though they tend to be lighter skinned. I have sometimes used his shapes and some of Darwin's Mishaps' skins. There is Daciana in the store, though I think I'd personally be adjusting the face a bit myself from the starting shape. I will just say this is also an area in have found lacking, so hoping to see some recommendations from others of characters and vendors I have overlooked :)

I may be wrong, but this character looks Latina to me: https://www.daz3d.com/anzhelika-hd-for-genesis-8-female

Well, 'latinx' can cover a lot of ground. I have a Puerto Rican second cousin or something, and he's blond with blue eyes.

I would call the look of the OP's picture Mayan but she'd be Latina too.

I was going to suggest SickleYield's People of Earth series, but it looks like she didn't do one for the Americas.

Yeah, Benita is a good one she reminds me of my mother. There's Eurielle by iSourceTextures https://www.daz3d.com/eurielle-for-genesis-8-female . Also Macarena HD by Mousso https://www.daz3d.com/macarena-hd-for-genesis-8-female . For the guys, Alexander by VincentXyooj https://www.daz3d.com/alexander-for-darius-8 .

Sometimes, when I want a less Caucasian look to a Latin American character, I tend to use an Asian base and dial spin until I get the approximation I want. Still, there's so much variety and diversity, you can't really go wrong.

Perhaps easy for me, since I'm Latina.
