I see a lot of similarities in this, but I don't know if it's the artist in me or what, but the nose doesn't even look CLOSE to the one in the picture of River. The flared outside curve of the nostril is too high, her nose curves down too much - Summer's curves up and is rounder, and the lower outer edge of the nostril is too low and sorta bulges down, where Summer's is very lightly arched UP.
I've tried making characters in the Sims 2 modeller - only one, the good Cap'n, and I don't envy anyone trying to match them very closely. That's as advanced as I have the money to spend on the program to create it.
I'm sure this program isn't easy - so I certainly give you TONS of credit on the efforts so far - they're awesome.
I just can't help but see that there's a LONG way to go on a lot of the facial features before she really looks like Summer.

Oh yeah believe me, I went through tons of Image planes to find the right ones. And when I do I find others, and I match those up and they match correctly.
It's just that in other images I find her nose in different poses and such, but in the screenshots I have here. Well I could take proper comparison shot sand they would work out well. But believe me, I keep staring at it and it's not right for me either. I'll work on it when I feel like it. Right now I'm getting the harder stuff out of the way (Hair and Cloth).
That's why I haven't made her teeth or eyes yet.
Then again I should note (I usually avoid doing so). I'm not looking for Critique unless I'm asking for it. I don't mean to sound rude, but I know how to get my stuff done.
Critique when I don't ask for it hurst me =/. No matter how good the intention may be.
:'(
EDIT: Oh and you should also consider the angle of the camera in the photo, and the angle of the camera I have setup. It's a little higher and farther around to the right so... Ya. The slant on the bottum of her nose is going to stay as slanted as it is, because believe me, if I slant it up anymore, she looks like a pig.

By the way I was joking about it always hurting :P.
Anywho, I did some minor adjustments, and this is about as close as I'm going to get with this amount edges on the nose.
When people mention crap I already know I have to fix... It just makes me fix it immediatly no matter what I'm currently doing :P :P.
EDIT: Here's a better closer shot.

Well sorry I haven't been updating. I don't update here often because there's that "Last updated forum post" think on the front page of the Community page. I update pretty often and I don't like spamming that module on the front page.
You can check all my updates at the following forum post at the official Summer Glau fan site: http://forum.summerglau.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=86 (there's 4 pages so far.)
