Butt Modeling Advice?

[Sleevesies]

I've been trying it more and more lately, but I can't seem to get my booty to look as good as some other modelers seem to, even before the rigging stage (which is also a struggle for me, but one thing at a time.) here's some of what I've made lately.


I'd like to know a way to actually get the asscheeks to protrude outwards while still having a defined crack, something that looks like it has some weight to it, like hooves art, taimanin squad, or senran kagura. these butts are a good reference of what effect I'm after.


those three models which I've made all did have references, so the scale is correct, it's just the topology and stuff that I'm still struggling with, I do have the ability to rip senran kagura models, and I have some rips of taimanin models which other people have made, however both of these are from games and thusly are triangulated and cut up into separated pieces, so it's a little hard to reverse engineer that way.

I'll keep trying, but I thought I should ask around here too!
