Great renders, everybody!

I’ve been working on a Genesis Toddler. I feel like this is one of the biggest remaining gaps in the Genesis genepool. It’s intended as kind of a generic base character which one could individualize in various ways. At least for now, this is purely a dialed character, but I may try taking out the Evolutions morphs and taking it into Hexagon, which I’ve never used before. This is not a commercial project.

Shown next to Basic Child to give a sense of scaling and proportions (Basic Child is wearing Penelope for K4 skin; the toddler is wearing Basic Child skin).

Any feedback would be appreciated, especially on proportions.

I’ve been working on a Genesis Toddler . . . Any feedback would be appreciated, especially on proportions.

Too late at night for anything more coherent than “nice!”, sorry.

@Scott: Cute! Much cuter than the rather ugly K4 Toddler. *sigh* Why does DAZ insist on ugly babies? Sure, most babies start out ugly (unless they’re yours), but they do get cute eventually…

@KickAir 8P: That’s beautiful and chilling—but in a good way!

That’s the idea…you are supposed to take the ‘ugly’ base and make it cute…by making it yours.  That’s the only explanation I’ve come up with that makes any sense (the other one is that the folks at DAZ doing the baby morphs only ever had ugly babies seems to go against the law of averages…)

But the other bases aren’t ugly. Matt, Maddie, and K4 are all fairly cute; M4 is good looking; and V4 is at least average. :(

Thanks, Zaarin! And I agree, that’s a beautiful image, KickAir 8P! Haunting, and not just in the literal definition of the word.

fantastic render Scott… very cute

Ps. You need a render thread! Art Zone! It’s hard tracking down all your stuff man

Thanks! Will do…don’t know why I’ve put it off so long, actually.

You’ve been watching mine, and I’ve been having to stalk your posts to see what you’ve been up to LMAO! Art zone is so fun! Your own thread you keep building up with anything you want!

Thanks, glad you guys like it!

BasicChild and Hitomi mixed .5 each - in Poser using the DSON importer. We now have a whole new range of children and clothing available to use :D

Lovely render, Mada! I’m still not completely sold on Genesis, but I am inspired to start accumulating something of a library for…hmm, what pronoun does one use with Genesis? It?

Genesis? It’s one of “them.”

An illustration I did for one of my many web sites.

It’s still K4, not Genesis.

I like the tongue pose.
