Searching for items to complete musician inspired scenes.

I want to make some musician inspired scenes, but there are some items i couldn't find going through the store. Can anyone point me towards the following or similar items compatible with G8? And no, this does not disclose anything about my age, I just like old music wink.

This jacket: 

:

This micophone:

And a hat like this:

or this:

Also any tips on a Jimi Hendrix outfit would be greatly appreciated, currently thinking of using the dForce Naval Uniform for Genesis 8 Male(s) but I don't think it will cut it.

    Ooh, it would fit a Michel Jackson scene perfectly, not a MJ I'm affraid so I'll have to look further. But I do like the outfit a lot. Yeah, I was already thinking the last outfit would be a challenge, but the first to pictures are Daz renders, so I am still hoping someone can point me in the right direction for at least those.

    Edit: second picture of the 40s/50s microphone seems to have "fallen" off the post. Here it is again (see attachment), has anyone a clue where to find it?

    For the mike i was looking some time ago and ended up going for a freebie. I used this one:

    And now i see there is also this one:

    There are also plenty obj freebies variations of that mike style and stands (is turbosquid allowed?), maybe you will need to kitbash a little.

    Awesome! Thanks Wolfwood! Really happy with this, and happy Easter!

    So I thought I could add a couple of ideas. There are lots of music related items in the store, but I could easily see this microphone being overlooked because the main product is actually an outfit (for the original Genesis), but the microphone is included:

    I also had a thought on the last one. Maybe something like the jacket in this outfit could be kitbashed into something useful:

    The Jacket: https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-giuro-vendetta-hd-for-genesis-8

    And the extra textures for it: https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-giuro-vendetta-hd-expansion-pack

    I know it's not exact, but it has kind of a vibe that might work with the right kitbashing. 

    That first jacket you posted is driving me crazy because I could have sworn I've seen something similar, but I cannot seem to find it. If I do I'll definitely let you know.

    Thanks and happy Easter MegonNoel. I've put Imelda in my cart and Giuro Vendetta on my wish list, that one is gorgeous. Can't believe I have never noticed it before.

    The scarf/choker (what do you call something like that?) seems similar to the one in dForce Le Roi Outfit Michele, though it's not the same it could be a morph I guess.

     

    Edit: Just found out it's called a Jabot. Sadly a search with that term doesn't yield useable results.

    There's a Jabot here:  https://www.daz3d.com/fairytale-prince-for-genesis-3-male-s  yes  With Autofit it should work with G8

    Also sent a PM angel

    Awesome!! That's it, just need a to find a suitable jacket to compliment it. Still searching for that Stevie Ray Vaughan hat though.

    Any suggestions for that jacket are welcome as well as a G8 dude who could pass for, or get me close to this guy (Stevie Ray Vaughan):

    Some of AliveSheCried'a "Alt" characters would probably work. He's a dead ringer for Alt Drutherson, but I'm not sure if you can dial that in without also shrinking him in size.

    Yes, maybe a mix of his face with Valentino 8 might work.

    His features are non-standard by Daz standards but fortunately https://www.daz3d.com/sy-unusual-features-for-genesis-8-male is about 75% off today...cool

    Popped that in the shopping right away, I see this working with the other morph set I have.

    The more I look at his picture, the more I realize my all time guitar hero looks like a dwarf. indecision

    The free Night club props from  rendo will come in handy, got the microphone as well. Thanks for this! Have you seen something like this while you we're searching by any chance?

    Yup, someone else pointed me in the right direction and got it in the last day of MM on the cheap. With some shaders it works nicely, but I have to say the freebees mentioned earlier in the thread seem of higher quality. The Imelda outfit is nice though.

    No I haven't seen any like that one you picture, though the OnAir part could be solved with a simple prop made from a plane and a texture added, then you just parent it.

    Ugh,...see,...I am still too much of a noob to think of these things. Still also looking for that model microphone as it is more 40s, and the Imelda microphone is more 50s from what I understand.
