I think it’s the frowning brow line. Probably a good tough guy look. 👀 I'm not a fan of the male head either (he looks a bit like a thug to me) but it's nice to see more diversity in the "skin-based facial expressions", if I can call it that. There are enough Ken-wannabes (and Barbies) in SL 😁 Edited March 11 by EmmaAsht0n 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know the free Quinn head looked awful to me in its advert but the head itself was quite good after finding the right skins for it. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A skin can make a dramatic change. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe its just me. I would say, the more I look at them the more I start to see the differences in them.. They do look similar though for sure.. The real difference is probably what one head might be able to do in the sliders and the other maybe more limited or expansive in other areas.. Myself, I would try a few different skins and different tones and test it out more and see if I seen differences with other skins and then also would test the sliders to see where one stops short and the other doesn't if they do.... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree. I've never bought the Avalon, though I've demo'd it many times. I just can't get the face I want with it; however, I loved the Billie when I first tried it on. But then I played with the shape too much and got it all chiseled in a way that was too runway model looking. That's never been my style. So I started over with my old shape and barely moved any of the sliders to get the face I really love. So yeah, they may look similar depending on your shape, but they are different. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The poor guy looks like he got some post surgery swelling with the eye lift, chin implant, rhinoplasty and lip fillers. I think some botox snuck in there somewhere. 😂 The head does tend to warp every eyebrow I have in my inventory and adjusting the brow sliders didn't do much. If he were to go to a red carpet event we can't have him looking like that, so perhaps a different skin may work better at minimizing tabloid gossip. Failing that, I'll just have to resign myself to the fact that Greg can't pull the Aaron off. But I'd say the head looks fantastic on @Clem Marques though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I struggled with that as well. Hard to shape those eyebrows unfortunately. The chin as well. 1 hour ago, Eddy Vortex said: But I'd say the head looks fantastic on @Clem Marques though.

I use Logan as well, and after testing the Aaron head and fiddling with the shape a lot, I decided to stick to the usual Logan head. Though I might use Aaron with a different shape for role-play purposes. That being said, I agree with @Stephanie Misfit's suggestions when it comes to the Aaron head in general. I haven't tested it, but it would probably look really good like this: 8 hours ago, Stephanie Misfit said: I think he would work better with an older skin, and more natural eyebrows. Another solution could be adding one of those frown lines BOM layers, I think they would suit the head's natural "scowl" quite nicely. They used it in the ad. But I understand that it's not everyone's cup of tea (not mine either) Edited March 13 by Clem Marques 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None have been updated yet. There is just the 3 new heads so far. They are usually pretty quick with the updates once they get rolling.. When they came out with the 3 evo x heads the year those came out, it was around the time of the hair fair.. I wanna say they started putting out updates pretty quickly after the fair that year.. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EmmaAsht0n Posted March 27 Author Share Posted March 27 Just read this on Lelutka's Flickr. Now I'm curious about what lies ahead. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JeromFranzic Posted March 27 Share Posted March 27 (edited) I answered that section on Discord. Basically told them I don't mind if SLUV support is removed. Just don't delete your pre v4.0 boxes of Lelutka heads if you still insist on using SLUV skins. Of course this means heads created before v4.0 may eventually not work with future bodies... but moves like this are often the price of progress. It's like Linux dropping 32 bit support for the OS a few years ago. (That can be reimplemented to a limited degree, particularly if one uses software like the Wine API.)

AmeliaJ08 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 SLUV is as good as dead anyway so yeah, ditch it properly. I guess standards are always created by the market, I know some have been semi-worried about the sort of gatekeeping of the 'EvoX' layout due to it being a brand and I think maybe that needs to change. EvoX is just a sort of loose standard layout in the industry anyway. To this end maybe "EvoX" needs to become "SLUV2" or something similar and it needs to be made very clear to the community that the UV layout is for everyone to use and enjoy without any fear of attracting the wrath of people who think you need permission to use it.
