Nice stuff!

Thanks fleetpp!

Other news:  Working on a head morph and texture for A3.  I’m going out of town for a few days but wanted to get a preview up.  Hopefully sometime next week she’ll be done.

Meet Autumn.  :D

Very nice. I like realistic looking morphs for Aiko 3. I noticed you have several at sharecg.

Thank you for the poses, and can’t wait for Autumn to appear among your A3 morphs. It’s so awesome someone with such talent as you have is still supporting A3 ^.^ *hugs*

Hello, Autumn! I look forward to adding you to the A3 Freebies list…

My goodness…isn’t she pretty. I’ve let my work with A3 slide a bit here of late, but this one makes me want to start up again. Looking forward to seeing her.

@ fleetpp:  Thank you.  I do have several, and plan on a few more.

@ Vilian:    Talent?  I was thinking I keep working with A3 because she’s easier to use than the others.  LOL Thank you.

@ robkelk:  Autumn says hi, in a soft sultry voice. 

@ Lord Ganthor:  Thank you.  It’s difficult to imagine you not using A3 as much, but then again I can’t expect everyone to remain locked in the past like I am.  LOL I look forward to seeing what you can do with her. 

I’ve been working on getting her packaged up, and want a little input if I may.  In the past I’ve included a .cr2 with open morph channels and a few custom morphs so that people that have only the LE model can use the character.  Is that still a good idea?  I know DAZ offered Aiko3 Full free for a while but don’t know if it’s still available like that.

Also, I used to use morph data to put the eyes where I needed them, but it caused all sorts of problems with eye movement.  This time I’m scaling and translating the eyes, and setting limits on the channels when the morph is injected.  As a result the eyes move and track right without trying to jump out of the socket or sink back into her skull.

Her head is sized pretty close to Aiko’s ‘realistic’ morph size, only a little narrower, so that hairs with a realistic A3 morph will fit pretty good.

After I get a bug or two worked out I’d like to pass her along to a tester or two or three to make sure I’m not missing anything.  Any takers?  PM me, please.

A3 Autumn is up.

I didn’t have any testers so let me know if there are any problems.

She is very pretty Stronghands!  I will give her a try once I get A3 installed again.  I can hear the poor thing’s crying coming from my back up discs, She is upset I haven’t been using her much these days.

Here’s a couple of quick ones with 3 different looks. The first 2 are in Bryce and the 3rd in DS 2.3 (which I’m not very good with). She’s a very pretty character who should fit in just about any situation you care to put her in. Something you might want to think about for future projects is to maybe add a little more variation in the make-ups and eye colors. If the textures included had a few extras, like a more natural lip coloring rather than just the red lipstick, it would increase her versatility a great deal. Just to see what a difference it might make, I used an alternate texture on the western themed render and like the look. You had expressed some dissatisfaction with the way the fishnets came out and I understand where you’re coming from. I tried to do the same thing with chainmail once and had disastrous results. Even though the seams mismatch, it does not really ruin the overall effect. It’s good that this was included as an alternate texture and not the main texture, though. I had no real problems with installing her on my (behind the times) system and everything worked just fine. You should consider a success who will stand proudly with the rest of your creations. One of these days I’m going to gang up all your creations in a single render just for fun.

@ Whitemyst:  *wave* Thank you.  I look forward to seeing more of your work, especially with my characters. :D

@ Lord Ganthor:  Wow.  Thanks for these.  I really suck at makeups, but I know you’re right.  I plan on another season-based character soon, (winter, if you hadn’t guessed), and I just may try to do that.  I’l keep working on getting some nets right too.  :D

That would be an awesome render, IMHO, just because I’m partial to my girls and I always enjoy your work.

Winter, hmmmm? Well, that would call for a four seasons type of render, wouldn’t it? I’ve got one more render of Autumn that I haven’t posted, mostly because I’m still not happy with it and am still tweaking around. If I can get it to work out half way decent I’ll put it up…but I’m not so sure just yet.

Y’know, the four seasons thing is really starting to intrigue me the more I think about it…

Hi Stronhands!  *Waves*  I’m afraid a render will be a bit off in the future.  I’m in the middle of sorting through content and organizing, everything was a mess even though I did “try” to keep it organized.  I want to get that finished before I get distracted installing more stuff. lol

Very good!  It shows how good A3 can be.  Of course, Stronghands, you did a good job!  I also found that A3 is easy to work with.

Thank you. Good to see continued support for a fine character.  The remake of “Coma” gives me a use for her.
