Description
Of all the Vocaloid characters, perhaps the most enigmatic is Rin Kagamine. She is the youngest member of the Vocaloid divas, and yet has been portrayed in both songs and memes to have considerably more intelligence and cunning than her older peers. She makes for an extremely interesting character because of these qualities; and I believe Japanese modeler Nakao had similar thoughts when he chose to portray her in her later teens.

She's pretty, but that deviousness and thoughtfulness that she exhibits occasionally in her 14 year old guise is still carried over to this version. Age for age, she would seem to be more mature than either Miku or Neru, which is something that could allow for a lot of fun when you mix them all together. She may seem to be a "good girl" on the surface but in reality, she really is the "Daughter of Evil", and that alone makes her in some ways a much more interesting character than the others.

Credits/Notes
Rin Kagamine (17 years old) - Nakao
Shopping district model used as background
MME adult shader, diffusion 7, rule of thirds
Pose/Camera/Lighting - self made

Photoshop had to be used to enhance colors - this is one of the reasons why I hesitate to use scenery models that have been ripped and rehashed as pmd files. Scenic accessories as PMD files can make lighting scenes a difficult exercise. There's no real advantage in making these types of models PMD files except in certain circumstances such as having moving parts or specially detailed textures that benefits from special material specifications.
