    ^ $27.76? That sucks. Not for you but for me. I paid around $42 yesterday, and I thought that was a good deal. I didn't know adding beyond 4 add ons kept giving even more discounts. Heck I would have purchased more stuff as there were a number of other items I would have liked to purchased. Guess it pays to keep experimenting with the cart. Kinda erked now. =(

    I only needed four addons for max discount, but the discounts on the other ones convinced me to grab those too.

    Also, I used a Plat Club coupon that helped.  When I first checked my cart this morning, I saw that the price had dropped about $10 or so from where I left it yesterday, in part because I didn't have Edward 8 pro, so I wasn't getting the extra 10% yesterday.

    Might not hurt to submit a ticket to the Daz sales team.  Sometimes it helps...

    On the other hand, I feel the promo pictures are VERY deceiving, because she has bright blue eyes in almost ALL of them and that takes a HUGE impact on how you perceive her "nationality" style. If you look at the 4th pic from last to first on her product page, where she wears a kimono-ish outfit with a longer hair, her eyes aren't so prominent, you will notice that she feels way more "asian".

    So tickled you liked/noticed that promo; it was the first "asian" cartoon-style scene I had ever done (I don't know the difference between all the different types or what name to call them by).

    Hmm, I don't get that. I purchased A8 Pro, and 4 addons, and used my DO coupon and my total I believe was $42.70. So did you purchase more than 4 addons, you mentioned 4? If you did it sounds like every addon past 4 kept dropping your cart. I got a bonus yesterday for owning Edward 8 Pro and my cart is still more than yours. surprise

    The $27.76 that was shown in my cart (at the left, not counting tax and such) was for the A8 pro bundle only (including part of my plat coupon).  I think I ended up with 7 'qualifying' addons.  Also note that today's sale mentions 50% off if you have two or more 'still new' or 'featured artist' catalog items. 

    Doing the quick math on my calculator, I was able to hit 28.33 as follows...

    • 134.95 x .5 = 67.45 (50% off if you have two 'still new' or 'featured artist' catalog items, see today's sale).
    • 67.45 x .7 = 47.23 (30% off for plat club)
    • 47.23 x .6 = 28.33 (30% off for four related items, plus the extra 10% off for buying A8 pro bundle today).

    My $6 off Plat coupon then reduced it a bit more (it was split between the various Daz Originals in my cart).  Not sure how close my methodology is to how Daz math actually works, but this 'tracks' with what was shown in my cart.

    Just taking A8 and A7.8 (Aiko 7 for A8) for a spin, along with that A3.8 character I've been working on...

    I'm still working on stuff for the furniture set (pictured), and I'll be taking a stab at an A8 version for that A3 update I've been messing with next, to go along with the other versions I have.  Yep, pretty excited about my acquisition of A8!

    I am really loving little Aiko. So far only been able to get to Aiko 8 and Riza.  Riza looks really nice without ant Aiko dialed at all

     

    Here is default Riza.  I think she loads with 60% Aiko 8

    And this is Riza with 60% Aiko 7 for Aiko 8, eyes look strange, right?

    And here is just Aiko 8

    Off to make more Aikos

    The Riza character is well done but making it dependent on Akio7 for Akio8 seems very odd to me. It's a morph based on a morph based on a character.

    I already have Akio7 so have no need for Akio7 for Akio8. The dependency makes Riza into a very expensive character and I'll have to pass on it. If it was based just on Akio8 I would have picked it up.

    That is a mistake on the product page. She requires Aiko 8 and G8F head morphs. I already wrote daz about it and hope they will fix this soon :)

    I mean, I was tired when they first put the ad up for Aiko, but I thought for a minute they put the ad for the wrong figure up. LOL. Aiko she is NOT, and I detest anime....lol.

    Really like her so far . But really want to know what that outfit was in the 14th frame.  I keep thinking Aio's short sailor for v4 and it is a kitbash.  Also like the Abigfail hair and how it blends with my usual kitbash for fox or cat ears.

    It's not a set it's a kitbashed thing so glad you like.  
    The shorts are the little pants from the Fairy outfit https://www.daz3d.com/fairy-outfit-for-karyssa-8-and-genesis-8-female-s
    The top is from https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/satin-pyjamas-for-genesis-8-females/124947 at Rendo. I used a shader from Sveva called Shimmer and Shine Fabrics also at rendo https://www.renderosity.com/mod/bcs/svs-shimmer-and-shine-iray-fabrics/112014

    I like the look of Aiko 8. Better than Aiko 7. The bundle looks nice too.

    But it's not anime nor resembles Asian. Thus the issue with many here is the name Aiko. 

    If it included Aiko 7 and some other pro bundles like similars deals to Edward, Owen, or Alexandra, I would have bought it immediately.

    Should've called it Barbie. Just Kidding. Hehe..

    My Take on Riza

    I tried evening lighting for the first time.  Not sure if I like it.

    I much prefer the look of Aiko 6 and 7. I'll pass. Thanks. 

  • freni-kynfreni-kyn Posts: 394

    Based on the additional characters made from her it's a good base, but I was VERY dissapointed.  I had really hoped for a return to the exagerated eyes of aiko 6.  They were very different from the newer characters on the market for the last couple of years.  An update to a better quality body would have been nice.  But I'm not giving up hope that some PA out there will create an add on that I like.  I bought her, but only because I liked the extra characters I could buy to go with her.  It looks to me like she is the new sci-fi character.  Not asian, not anime.  And that is fine but it would have been nice to get a heads up on that decision.  One of the figures that went out today had to die for lips, unfortunatly they are not a separate morph that I could dial into other characters.  I'll probably skip that one until later.

    Thank you. That is actually goldtassel's anime kitten hair for genesis 2 female transmapped and somewhat deformed. Been working on something else to use that would work better, but still trying to get the LAMH preset to look right on the prop.
