WIP MEC4D - Creations for Dawn 2 and Dusk 2 , work in progress

[unreal]

Isaac Newton used to believe geometric shapes had magical, supernatural, and perhaps even divine powers. I wish I knew that when I was studying geometry, because it would had been much more exciting.

Newton was a fig.

Yummy.

I was just doing some totally different thing this Saturday evening , and made another "FACE"concept for the baby Luna kids collection that I am working on , first time touched Zbrush after over 3 months , kinda still rusty .. but I had a moment and I had to do it..

 

[Miss B]

Oh and I'm liking that hair too. Did you do the hair as well, because it's looking great for a young boy?

Thanks Miss B , yes I made the hair too , but this one just temporary for a concept as I like the style with this new face .

 

[Miss B]

So do I.

 

[Alisa]

Sweet!

some touch up and improvements on the new twins shape ... right now it is Baby Luna 1 geometry.
I am thinking to make all the kids shapes and their clothing for Dawn2 .

That would certainly give us more assets for the children instantly. How will that work for male clothing from Dusk2 being used for the boys?

 

[Miss B]

Looking good Cath!! Looking very good!!

Good question.

If the shapes was on Baby Luna 1 then you can't use it at all , and since Dusk2 is actually a clone of Dawn2 it may works better since the rigging and geometry is the same , however no matter what the shapes are on Dawn2 or Dusk2 , having fitting male clothing on a boy shape would be a challenge for regular user, it would be possible to add the boys shapes later to Dusk2 when it is released , but the male clothing may never looks perfect . In Daz Studio things like that are not big problem , but in Poser things works little different .
Of course I would provide a lot of outfits for the kids with the time and I am sure others would do too , it would also add the possibilities to make different ages for the main figure like for example create female teenager's just by sliding a morph or male teenager's when it is on Dusk2 .. The current shapes are at an age that are more or less genderless so they can both be used for a girl or boy .
I want Dawn2 to have as much variations as possible for the beginning , and when the rest of main figures are done it would be easier to transfer everything in no time without the need for an extra work on sculpting , and then it would be easier for you to use Dusk2 clothing on the boy's shape , especially If I make them , as I would make sure they fit both of them perfectly .
It is important to have as much shapes in the begging as possible , as it would helps to make clothing that will fit them all .

Are you TRYING to break everyone's bank account honey??? LOL

Just do us all a favor and DO NOT release all this at the same time. YIKES! My wallet just started sweating. Not pretty!

you too cute Richard , not everything at the same time as I will have not enough time to do that , I just meant to make sure there are many realistic shape variations so people have a choice .
Your wallet is lucky that I was off for 3 months other way it would explode already
I have so many ideas for my renders , I just need my all characters to be ready and definitely I will miss Dusk2 until he is ready , as I will have something amazing for him as well, that you never saw before on this level .

Thank you so much! That's what I want too. This way, the quality will be immediately apparent and indisputable.

That is exactly the goal here !

Hello,

I am excited today since finally I setup my HDRI maps to use in Poser 12 , one map for everything ( no external spheres needed no more) , no other lights needed , proper PBR materials and looks just like in iray , also I made some setting for the contrast, aperture/shutter speed and tone .

very excited ..

 

[Miss B]

I WANT IT!!! I like using HDRi backgrounds, and that is one very well lit scene Cath.

Thanks Miss B , I have a lot of new HDRI maps.. also a lot from NYC while pandemic , Central Park, empty streets, Bear Mountains, 7 Lakes NYC etc.. just perfect for the 3D scene , once I setup the proper way everything I will be ready to make a products from my collections .
I need to talk to Ken, he may help me doing HDRI control panel using script for easy usage.
