I'm itching to get started on promos and icons for Dawn2. When will you release those fabulous textures?

it will be released with Dawn 2.0 by HW as it is part of the Base Figure .
You will get it probably 2 weeks before the deadline since you are on the early bird list doing products.
I just make material for promotion , still waiting for the final version ,clothing and hair to start doing Final Promo images for the Dawn 2.0 product .

Thanks Rich , can't wait to go into Poser with it all , it was a while but I am confident it will be at the same level once I get proper skin settings .

Thank you @jartz , it is interesting that Gold was most popular on HW, then on Instagram "Winter" and on Twitter and Facebook "Silver" I guess different group of people with a different taste , thankfully Dawn2.0 is so versatile now and everyone can find something for themselves . Chris changing the main base face to more uniform shape paying off .

 

[jartz]

Exactly, the facial part is the most interesting in the next figure, I love how it's structured. You are so right, she does have "variety", and the possibilities are infinite for the user. That's good to know. I wish I can be an early developer as I'm just a beginner. Well done, Cath, Chris, and all.

Here's an interesting question about merchant resources. Let's say I want to put tattoos on Dawn 2, but I'm a terrible painter or I just don't know how to do it. Can I, using a merchant resource, hire someone to do the custom tattoos for me? It seems like a rather straightforward question, but it also seems like I'd violate a EULA agreement somewhere down the line unless I paid for the merchant resource twice. Once for me, and once for the third party I'd have to hire. Or is that a mistaken belief?

Don't both DS and Poser support layers in textures? Can't they be done that way?

incredible. The acid test, of course, will be expressions

Is someone working on those?

Thanks, so far the eyes-brows-lips facial rigging working for me just fine , I think Chris is responsible for the expression morph pack if I don't mistake .
I will do my Presets for the character render presets as well unique one for my own upcoming shapes.

awe-SOME!

it will be a long 6-9 weeks for those of us waiting.

I imagine it will be a ridiculously short 6-9 weeks for the rest of you

I predict Dawn2 *insanity* this year. Absolute insanity.

"insanity" for sure , it is gonna be great , after 12 months working with it , I am not bored yet , but we want to have things done finally so you guys can enjoy it as well .

In case you render a billboard picture this textures maybe for you ,

close up on light behavior , Global illumination and Sun light in Poser12

The Superfly SSS skin shader behave now exactly as in Iray with the same results .. did not expected that to see in Poser as it was impossible to see it when using only spot lights . HDRI light maps brings it so nicely.
I still need to make one more specular layer to break everything through the surface for finest little tiny reflections and exclude pores from it .

This shader will works amazing with deeper wrinkles and any kind of imperfections on the skin , like scars , cuts. etc.., how deeper it get, how bloody it will be lol

Go big or go home ! lol

 

[MEC4D]

Here some more progress from Poser12 , still a WIP
2 spot lights only
