From Japan to SL

Recently there is an expression “Forgotten nose” which means that the less impressive nose, the more beautiful a girl is. Also, they say that any woman could be beautiful if there were no nose. Others say that there is no woman who likes her own nose. The nose complex is not only for me. My avatar shape is still the same as that I made twelve years ago, but recent mesh head has beautiful nose. I reported before that I was not able to find my favorite shape among various DEMOs so I tried to change my nose using my classic avatar.




The left in the above is the largest, and the right, the smallest. The right is almost same as my current shape, which means that my nose is rather small. In SL, they tend to prefer opposite style than RL. It could be one of the reasons why the Russian tends to make the nose small and the Japanese use long legs and big busts. In the net, the smaller nose seems to be preferable. The left is the beauty with the largest nose that I found in the net, and the right is in an article about makeup to look nose smaller. The left lady may feel some difficulty when kissing? I rather like the feeling to be pressed softly.




I imagined the original face of the right above person removing the finger. It is not necessary to make the nose small.




It was difficult to edit the shape of the DEMO, so I tried to modify the nose with Photoshop. While doing these, I am starting to feel that my RL nose is not so big. In a novel, there was a description to knead a chilled nose with both hands, but I never did. I modified my nose in my RL picture and showed it to him but he kindly said, “I prefer as is since the nostrils are cute and handy to close at CPR”, which made me happy a little. I gave up to find my favorite shape in the mesh avatars, so I will keep using the classic avatar for the time being.
