All human samples

OK, in preparation for my "human ethnicities of Dark Fantasy X" video, which I will do shortly, I went through my collection and updated all of the models. A few I deleted, because they just weren't going to be up to snuff without major reworking. Most just needed a few element swaps, a little bit of reposing or re-angling the camera viewing angle, and some recoloring. A few only needed the roughness turned up on their hair texture so that they don't look plastic.

Some are ones that I created myself from scratch. Some are ones that I grabbed from the community library, although in those cases, I almost always made at least a few changes. But not always a lot. Plenty of human models just look already like the Medieval European standard for fantasy, or they look like the Americanized sword & sorcery of last century. The most extreme ones have the 3e "dungeonpunk" aesthetic. I mean, even if I found all kinds of weird Diversity, Inc. examples, it's not like changing the skin and hair and eye color, if needed, is all that hard. It also wasn't hard to change a bunch of action-grrrrl models into men; usually just a click of a single button and then a few minutes examining it for any clean-up.

Not that I didn't want any girls, because obviously did. Most of my girls are pretty feminine, though; I only have two outdoorsy pants-wearing and weapon-holding girls, if I recall.

Anyway, you'll see the whole collection below, now that I've cleaned it up. I decided not to worry too much about describing how different models fit into the different ethnicities. For purposes of this post, there are six ethnicities, but one of them only has one model; the ancient Egyptian-looking cultist, and one of them only has two; a couple of barbarian-looking characters (although one has a katana. Don't know why; he looks like an Injun. Whatever.) Other that that, the Drylanders are a unique ethnic group to my setting; they have weird silver-chrome eyes, though, so they tend to stand out. The other three are analogs of different flavors of Europeans, and because they all live in close proximity, anyone could be from any group due to intermixing. In general, the Tarushans are like the Romanians, the Timischers are like the Austrians, and the Hillmen are like the Anglo-Saxons and Scots. The last two groups wouldn't even tend to look differently enough that you could spot them at this resolution.

And, of course, there's a few of the models below that you can't tell about anyway, because they belong to some cult where they're covered head-to-toe, or they're vigilantes or psychos or something that otherwise hide their features. Like I said, with the exception of a very few, any model could potentially belong to any of the three ethnicities mentioned above. Except that the blondish ones are less likely to be Tarushans; blonde hair is extremely rare among them. Unless it's been bleached or dyed, or something, which does sometimes happen...
