HAHAHA! Touche. I like new Lara. She's not just another duplicate "pretty woman with Anglo features." She's short, she's scrappy, she's got a wide face and brown eyes. Now that graphics have reached realistic levels of detail, Lara's able to take on her own identity.
Nothing against canonical Lara. 1990's riot grrl babe. Righteous. |

Especially considering classic Lara was a lot less white/more exotic-looking like she could have possibly been mixed race (which is far less common with video game protagonists, male or female, most male video game protagonists have Reboot Lara's complexion and medium brown hair). |

So there's been talk about an older Lara apprenticing a younger adventurer... Stay with me here, what if Jonah and Abby have a kid, and 20 years after Shadow, their Polynesian/Hispanic daughter searches out a 46 year old Lara, looking for an apprenticeship?? Grizzled Lara needs the help of the next generation to solve her life-long quest to uncover... ATLANTIS!!?? |

I do miss classic Lara's ambiguity as well though. Imagine if she'd had an unplaceable accent, too... |

I wouldn't mind seeing a game character with a mixed background. Although Lara could have fit pretty easily into that if she'd kept something similar to her look from before, and just left it up to interpretation. I kind of miss when things didn't always need to be fully explained. |

Personally, I wouldn't mind the no make up version mod she did, mixed with the all black outfit mod here. [youtube]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2w91AS2IPI4[youtube] put both together, and it would remind me of in game Angelina model I always wanted.

Any modders out here know where to find Lara's hair textures? I want to lighten the hair and make it more of a golden colour rather than reddy.
Every time I've looked, I can only find the base hair, but not the fringe strands and ponytail. I've looked dozens of times haha. |

I never would intend to put down the work of others, as obviously a lot of work goes into these mods...but so far all these mods that attempt to make Lara look "canon" or change her face have done nothing for me. Some of them actually make her look worse. I'll admit that Lara's face in Shadow isn't perfect (when she talks to the kids she looks really weird) but, so far these aren't the answer.
