Hello Everybody!
I'm so excited! I'm actually going to be illustrating a fun little short story for a really great (in my mind) amateur writer! So... I'm looking for your opinions, because I need to pick up some high quality models for this. Specifically, I need to know who is your most favoriate Hispanic, Indian, and Irish female models? I think I have all of the other ones in the story covered, but these three are critical to get right and I'm not sure I have it covered with what I have in my catelog. Since so much is on sale right now, I thought it was the best time to ask, and nobody better to ask than you fine patrons of the site!!
And I'm not trying to be weird about it by asking for certain nationalities, but I really want to make this as good as I can so I want to use very detailed models that I know will be able to handle a good range of emotion. For most of my other primary characters I'm using Mousso models, with a few Hinkypunk selections thrown in as well. I'm also comfortable using morphs and blending in other shapes to get the exact shapes I need, so I'm mostly interested in the best base model for a G8 Female model of Hispanic, Indian, and Irish descent.
Any thoughts? Thank you so much!!

When you say Indian are you talking about middle east or north american natives?
Oh shoot, Middle Eastern. From India. I like that Kala 8 model, but I'm not sure still which direction to move with.
Irish is a particularly tricky one. Are you looking for the stereotyped red hair and freckles? That’s less than ten percent of our population. We come in many shapes, sizes and skin-tones. Might be worth consulting with the author about the character’s physical description.
Irish: https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/3da-siobhan/120464/ has in my opinion the best 'redhead' skin for G3 and G8 (the textures are in the G3F folders, but load without problems to G8). If you don't want too many freckles, then https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/emmeline-adult-for-genesis-8-female/135364/ has lovely skin. I have hundreds of G8F characters from Daz vendors, but none of those skins can compare to the 3dArena and Sangriart offerings at Rendo.
Hey Redz! You are right... I was maybe jumping the gun a little, but while I wait for some character spec sheets I thought I'd take a look at my options. I don't have any Irish ancestry in my family, so I guess aside from the stereotypical red hair I'm not sure. I'm really trying to be careful to not be offensive because of my ignorance, I guess I just never really thought along these lines before. I was looking at https://www.daz3d.com/vivienne-for-genesis-3-8-female-s, but I might go back and ask for some more details before I move forward on that one.
Thanks dragonfly! Those are both very pretty models! I think the 1st one is a strong contender (at least for what I have in my brain), but I think to Redz point I'm gonna have to get a few more details before pulling the trigger. Thanks!
Mildred for Aiko 8 might also fit my requirement for Irish. I'm also pretty set on Kala as she looks to be a very high quality model. Any thoughts on Hispanic?
Gosh, this feels so wrong, but I suppose when crafting a story it's important to get these things right so that the visuals don't detract from what the readers expect lol...
I promise to post some pics up once I get my models set and then hopefully this whole thing will feel less creepy.
Irish can run the full spectrum of hair colors, and most eye colors as well. The "red hair & freckles with fair/pale skin" aren't attributes unique to those of Irish descent. Some ancient historians even identified the Scythians as having these physical features, from whom the modern Russians are descended from; some of which also have pale skin and freckles with red hair.
Yeah this is a good point... perhaps I jumped the gun asking here. I was just super excited.
I think, for now, I'll hold off on that one. I'm actually finding that I have a TON of options just mixing and matching what I do have. So... we'll see. I'll post something up in the art gallery once I get my cast together. Thanks for the help, everyone!
I like the Rana for Kala 8 (comes in the Pro bundle) for an Indian model.
I was under the impression that most Irish had dark hair ;). I'm American though, so what do I know? LOL :P I think it was maybe the Vikings that passed around the red hair. Those folks REALLY got around :D

The statistic is 50% of the Irish have dark brown hair, 30 percent are light brown to blong, and 10% are redheads... and like most of the world, 10% are lefthanded...
For Irish, if you used the body morph from https://www.daz3d.com/caprice-hd-for-genesis-8-female with the textures from https://www.daz3d.com/pearl-for-genesis-3-and-8-female your results shouldn't be too far from typical. If my Ulster-Scots relations are anything to go by that is.
I'm not sure our favorite actors have any relevance to the writer's story being written really or creating good illustrations especially. I couldn't even name actors of any of those three ethnicities although I seem to remember Roma Downey being Irish.
