Creepy Little Fella

Was just coming to see about Daz Studio for him. I modeled a Creepy Vamp outfit and needed to know about texturing for DS. There seems to be two versions of him but I only loaded up the weight mapped version in Poser. Will try the boned version in DS and see if I can convert.
Here's a couple of pics of the unfinished, un-textured outfit. Maybe having some clothes will help keep the draft off of him :)

That is looking awesome!

The morph for the teeth I have dubbed "TeethOralSurgeryNow". He has a ton of included morphs. I'm sure those who have him would agree that his morphs are fun and there are plenty to work with. :D

Stezza, he looks like a contestant on Naked and Afraid. Eating the bug...ewwwww. Great pic and the skin shaders look excellent on him.

I will do my best to get my Kooky poses over. I didn't put them on the list of excluded products so I'm not sure how much of an issue it will be though I'm not sure if they feel they would be Daz worthy as it's poses for a 3rd party figure

I think it's pretty likely that DAZ isn't going to want to have poses on their site that require buying a figure from HiveWire...

Alisa, lets just wait and see...maybe they will surprise us. I have seen things for Poser figures in the store but that was a long time ago.

Yeah, the 'DAZ figures only' in the DAZ store has been a comparatively recent development. Mostly since 2011 and the launch of Studio 4.0. There are still a few antique products lurking in corners I think. Poses for a skeleton horse here, clothing that supports Koshini there, things like that.

But nothing that supports Poser weightmaped rigging. Although I expect that to change now with the RDNA stuff migrating over. DAZ wants those Poser users' business back.

Not an issue of it being for Poser.

DAZ does not (though I think they did a few times MANY years ago) sell products that are specifically made for figures sold at other stores. That's just the way they do things.

I believe I saw it written that they want the "Requires" line to point to items in their store as they can't control the availability otherwise. Valid enough reason, I guess.

I don't want to turn this into a discussion about this - it's their store and their choice. I'll just tell you we link LOTS of products to things at other stores with no issues at all. If a product link becomes incorrect, someone will let us know and we can fix it or remove the product or whatever. It's a choice.

And we appreciate that, too. I can't think of anyone who characteristically builds their scenes with products only from one store.

Now that we have a character based on Murdoc, is there any chance of a Noodle?

I just realized how awesome CK2 would look driving Bazze's Muscle car! Stylo anyone?
