Thanks Karth...

She's beautiful Pen.

Love the freckles!

 

[RAMWolff]

Totally adorable Pen!

 

[Pendraia]

Thanks Satira and Ram...

I have promos left on the DS version and then I will be submitting it. Hopefully that will be later today. Then it will be back to work on the Poser version.

 

[Pendraia]

I called this family outing

 

[Mythocentric]

Awwwwwwww!

 

[Dakorillon (IMArts)]

That looks Awesome, Pen!

 

[Pendraia]

Thanks, I was thinking of using it as a backdrop for one of the promos.

Just a quick update. DS version has been submitted to Hivewire and is currently being tested.

Firefly mats in Poser are finished except for the half a dozen icons for the mats. Injections are complete. Still working on creating a pose file that contains the scaling as well as the morphs.
Here's a render from Poser with Luna with just Deidre, middle figure is Deidre 3 year old(slight differences in the neck as Poser will not accept points of e.g. 85.2% like DS will, final figure is Diva with Deidre.
Just love Trumacar's terrific Christening Dress. Must work out how to get it on Diva in Poser.

 

[Dakorillon (IMArts)]

Looking great! I admire your Poser work!

 

[Pendraia]

Thanks Dakorillon...still very much a beginner in Poser.
A comparison with the same dress in DS on Deidre 3 Year Old

 

[Mythocentric]

Sweet perfection. I'm sitting here with my finger poised over the BUY ME button and I ain't moving for anyone! Go Pen!

 

[Pendraia]

Thanks Mytho...onto the tricky stuff tomorrow as I'll need to set up the superfly mats.

 

[Pendraia]

Same dress and hair on Deidre 3 Year Old in Firefly...hair colour doesn't look quite the same but I may have added some red to the diffuse on the other one. Can anyone tell me how to get rid of halo around the hair...I'm going to try a different set of lights. Still doing it with different lights.
Okay...changed to jpeg and it got rid of it.

Deidre has been on a hold for a while and I just wanted to let everyone know what is happening. I have been thinking for a while that I really want to be making my textures from scratch rather than using Merchant Resources, and by a while I'm talking over the last 12 months. I've felt like I'm rushing things and using MR's to replace skills I haven't perfected yet but this also means that those skills don't get perfected as you get caught up in the making of things instead.

So I've decided to put a hold on Deidre and any other characters until I can release her the way I would like to, which is where it is all my own work(no merchant resources) and where I've created proper displacement maps in Zbrush not just desaturated maps in PS and adjusted other settings. This may mean that I won't be releasing much for a while but it will mean that when I do it will be at the standard that I want it to be.

Sorry about this but I don't want to release a product that is not to the standard that I would like.

Just catching up with this thread Pen. That Family Outing render is great.

Understandable Pen. You take as long as you need to, we'll wait.

 

[Pendraia]

Thanks Miss B...

You glutton for punishment you But I'm not surprised one bit. Just one thing. That cute as little dress Deidre is wearing, where is it from? I want it real bad.

 

[Dakorillon (IMArts)]

@Lorraine I'm pretty sure it's the Christening Dress from Dana's site.

@Pendraia I'm proud of you for taking such a step in your artistic development! When you find that you have reached your next learning phase, like this one, you will only improve from there! Wish you the best!
