    Ariana - Thanks hun!! I hope you have fun with it (and post renders!)

    Zaarin - yeah, I dunno why that one got such bad reviews... prolly coz it was way darker than their norm. I had waited years for them to unvault it. When they finally did, I ran right out and bought it. I cant even count the number of times Ive watched it now lol


    In the 80s (and even the 90s), it was assumed cartoons were for children. Look at what happened to Don Bluth Studios. :(


    Shoot I can recall my Fav's Marvin Martian, born in the Right Quadrant of the Galaxy!

    Modern illustrators of adult cartooning: GILBERT SHELTON's Fat Freddy's Cat! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fat_Freddy's_Cat , RALPH BAKSHI with Fritz the Cat, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ralph_Bakshi , one of my all time favorite's VAUGHN BODE with Cheech Wizard! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vaughn_Bodé This is adult so be warned! The Girl! LOL!!! Someone must have modeled G4 after her!!!

    Oh and not forgetting RICHARD CORBIN and Den http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Richard_Corben . Absolutely influenced me and my art back in the day!!!

    Great outfit! Has anyone used autofit on it? How well does it translate?

    I hadnt actually tried. So I just ran it thru. Everything works pretty good.... the boots, as most shoes, have some issues. The choker also starts out crunchy, but if u use the smoothing modifier for it, it will fix it.

    Here's a render in DS of it.... and I used the hag, coz Im a goofball LOL

    I used hair as the template for the hat, bodysuit for the choker and eyescope. The rest was pretty standard (boots for boots, shirt for shirt, pants for pants)Thanks for doing that Ignis...I will pick it up if they have a catch up sale at the end. Unfortunately didn't see your post until now...

    Thanks

    This is my first post, so hopefully I'm not making a blathering fool of myself. :) I hit on some sort of criteria that is giving me a small discount on my total. Last month, there was a percentage discount at different cost levels (plus the mega-awesome 50% off at a $500 purchase). Is that happening on this sale too? Is it a different discount? What are the rules? I have looked around, but so far haven't found anything that gives me a clue. ...so confused...

    Edit: [Maybe it's something totally different, but still no clue what]

    Edit2 3:18pm PST: [Finally figured it out! It's because I added a tier 3 product on without realizing it, so it gets subtracted out at the tally.]

    That was a different promotion, and I'm afraid it has ended. The PA sale gives you a chance to buy $500 worth of stuff for $250, as long as it's a feature day for someone with a large catalogue, but the discount is applied to the base price.

    IgnisSerpentus: The Dark Apocalypse products look amazing! I was aware of the Shrieker, but for some reason I never noticed the others (probably because they aren't for Genesis). Wishlisted for sure (hopefully I have more cash at some point...). The new outfit also looks very cool, and I've enjoyed seeing everyone's renders of it.

    Ann and Frank: excellent work, as always! I wishlisted the Control Room and the Cargo Hold for future use, and there are a couple of others I'm trying to decide between (to purchase today)...out of curiosity, does anyone have a Build A Scene render showing the one of the night lighting presets (preferably in DS if possible)?

    Sugatak: Rihatsuten wa subarashii to omoimasu! Sasuga desu nee! (Hopefully I said that right: Rihatsuten looks amazing...just as I'd expect from you). I think the chairs and some of the other props could see some use in steampunk-type renders, too. Any chance you'll be making any more castles? I would be very interested in Kumamoto Castle...

    Mada: Great-looking outfit, and fantastic set of promo renders for it!

    Muscleman: Your pose set looks really nice. It actually improves my opinion of S5 (which was pretty high already) If/when I get S5 I'll want to pick this up too.

    Jepe: I've seen people make great use of your Z-effects. Right now I'm trying to focus on renders without the "special effects," but some point in the future, when I'm better at this stuff, I'll reward myself by picking some up. :)

    Thanks so much for the compliments! I really love that series too... I have had a lot of fun going off the beaten path. As far as the others not being gen... yeah, they are older, and Prisoner of War (the most recent before the Shrieker) only had come out during the time around Genesis' debut. I have entertained the idea of converting them, but as they are fairly large sets (with a char, clothing, poses, props and whatnot) it would be a pretty mammoth task for certain. So, not sure if I will or not quite yet.

    One more DS4 render of Stephanie 5 curvy wearing Edens Flame outfit.
    Also used Orion hair and Sickle Hat and Hair fixer to remove pokethrough of the hair over the hat.

    There you are! Hubby was just saying he was surprised we didn't see you in here :)

    To your question, I just asked Neil to shoot a render off with the night lights from DS for you so he'll post it up as soon as its done :) If you have any other questions on anything at all, just let us know :) And I'll get that posted up for you as soon as I can :)
