    The Iray make-up won't apply. The 3D Delight ones do.

    Did you render after applying them? Some iray makeups don't appear in the viewport.

    It appears in the render, not in the viewport. :)

    Thank you for the replies. I never had that happen before. Odd.

    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.

    Are you going to sell it or just for personal use?  I kind of thought that looked like those ears but had not messed around with them enough to notice that I could lengthen the hair.  Did you mix Sakura morphs in with her in that one?

    You need to have the new Abigail hair and Anime Kitten Hair . That was a kitbash. If you own them will be happy to upload the preset to be used. Can't sell what I dont own. Now the LAMH presets I might once I get them right.
  • And yes the mixes are 75/25 using Sakura as the start for one and Aiko for the other.

    I decided to get her and I really like the few test renders I've done. Based off of the few examples of mixing her morphs with Sakura, she will definitely be used in my runtime.

    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 :)

    Ah, that explains it. Beautiful work on Riza, P3D. She's lovely!

    Well guys, I'm taking a stab at Aiko 3.8 for Aiko 8 right now.

    The eyes have been a bit of a pain though.  I've dialed their size up a LOT using the G8 morphs, and I'm having issues with the lacrimals colliding with the eyeball (when looking left-right).  Not sure what the best way to fix that is, as I was hoping to add her to that custom Aiko 3 for Gen 8 morphs package thingie I've been working on..

    Anyways, here's a WIP of what I have so far...

    Aiko 3.8 custom Aiko 8 morph, work in progress.

    I still have some cheek, jaw, nose, etc. adjustments and such I'm playing around with (not quite happy with the results yet), but the eye thing is the issue I'm focused on at the moment.  I'm not really sure if I could fix it somehow with D-Formers (i.e. somehow tie a minor adjustment to the eye left-right slider).  I'm comfortable with D-Formers but have never really tried to package a custom character for release before, so this is all new to me.

    The Aiko 8 'default' morphs have been a bit less cooperative than the other character families I've tried so far (Karyssa, Sakura, etc.)  in my quest to recreate Aiko 3 as a 'native' G8F.  Aiko's 8's head is only dialed in at 70% in the pic above (body is at 100, not pictured here), but I'm using the A8 skin textures (with some significant adjustments, I'm trying various approaches to lighten the skin a lot)... I'm hoping I can work all of this out, but I still have a lot to learn about creating products for others to use...

    Anyways, enough about that.  St. Paddy's day is tomorrow, so I'm thinking someone should slip Riza (for A8) into a suitable St. Paddy's day outfit, and share it as part of Aiko 8 week.  I didn't grab Riza, otherwise I'd do it on a whim, assuming I could find some St. Paddy's day outfit in my library somewhere - I'm not sure if I have one of those...

  • Nice work there. Now she looks younger like she is supposed to. I love Sakura but would be nice to have one that doesn't need all the extra attachments
  • RAMWolffRAMWolff Posts: 10,351

    Very nice work to get her looking more like Aiko 3.  I went ahead and bought JUST Aiko 8 and one of the outfits... the rest I can manage on my own and have plenty of hair props.  But I was wanting to take her into ZBrush and create a more Aiko 3 look.

    Now all we need is for DAZ to bring back Hiro.  I totally miss him, he was my fav to work with with the Generation 3 figures

    Thank you, Alliekatblue! She is a wonderful character, so fun to render--- anything with huge eyes, the window to the soul! :-) Love the render you made here. 

    Love Pixeluna's and vyktohria's characters 

     

     

     

     

  • Also picked up Aiko7 for Aiko8.  Height is different and skin tone slightly more red.  Attached image is as close as possible comparing the two.  Same exact pose, lighting, and post-production.  Two exceptions.  First, adjusted the y-offset to have the eyes be in the same exact location for both renders.  Second, in post, one adjustment (hue shift) was +7 for Aiko8 and +10 for Aiko7 for Aiko8.

    I'm slightly partial to Aiko7, but both are still really good (and quite similar).  Biggest difference beyond the height is with the eyes.

    Thanks for the side by side comparison! I like Aiko 7 more because of her eyes, but I'm love the skin textures and particularly the eye colors with the Aiko 8 add on characters. I do like Aiko 8 blended with Dao for Genesis 8 and/or using the Sakura 8 eye and nose morphs to adjust her face shape. Hopefully I'll have some renders to share tomorrow and over the weekend.

    Here are a couple of pictures using Dao for Genesis 8 as my base figure with Aiko 8 head shape dialed in. I used textures from Aiko 8's add-on figures, but I don't remember which at the moment. I loved Dao when she first came out but didn't have money for her at the time. Really happy I was able to pick her up at a discount while I was also loading up on Aiko and her add-ons. I'm going to play more with Aiko 8 as my primary.

    Is Aiko 8 the character shown in the "Abigail Hair for Genesis 3 and 8 Female(s)" promo pictures ? This is included in the aiko 8 bundle.

    https://www.daz3d.com/abigail-hair-for-genesis-3-and-8-females

    She looks different from aiko 8 (tinted skin, and more anime in her features)

     

    At first I thought it might be FWSA Celie HD for Aiko 8, due to a similar skin tone, but it cant be, as FWSA Celie has mild frekles and has smaller eyes. https://www.daz3d.com/fwsa-celie-hd-for-aiko-8

    It's Aiko 8, but I'm not sure if she's blended with Sakura or Karyssa using one of their textures. Or possibly an add-on character for Aiko that hasn't been released? At least two of the promo pictures she has blue eyes that are small and look closer to Aiko 8 out of the box.

    Thanks Silver for letting us know. @Cortex I'm glad you pointed out the promo pictures and asked about, Aiko does look beautiful in them and has a stronger anime feel in that first picture. I'm going to have to go check those out now.

    Decided to play with Abigail hair and other items in Aiko's pro bundle today. I really do like all of her add-ons and blending Aiko with other characters. Here I have Karyssa at 30% and using VYK Rose texture.

    @Scorpio, these are breathtaking!  Are they Aiko out the box or have you done your tweaking?  The skin and the eyes - beautiful
