Anyone know what character was used in the promo for this product?  I adore her.

  • Indeed. I was thinking the same thing.

    I assume it's a G2F character, as that's what the hair is for. I think it's the same character in the main hair product promos, but with a different skin applied. 

    Don't recognize her. Possibly a non-release.

    Am hoping someone will know.

    Me, too. Who is she. Here's the main release promo pic as well if it can help.

    That's Victoria 27.

  • Someone has to know.

  • tl155180tl155180 Posts: 994

    Whoever she is, I would buy that figure.

  • sapatsapat Posts: 1,735

    Yes, that's why I want to know. I want to buy her if she comes with that amazing skin, eyes and MU.

    Suspect it could be a proprietary morph used specifically for promos. The question would be whose skin is she wearing.

    The top one looks like AprilYsh's Calais, or maybe the more recent one with the Pierette ruffles.

    Her skin reminds me a lot of Calais for G2F, but Calais' morph is quite extreme. Perhaps she's a mix. She looks a bit V6. I'd be curious to know.

    That's definitely Pierrette texture (look at second to last promo pic). Character is a different morph though as nose and lip shape significantly different. Perhaps Olympia?

    Could be Pierrette.  Wish the majority of her MU weren't clown face white paint though.  But she is beautiful.........and very expensive!  Had to wishlist her for another time.

    I have the Calais bundle with the character, hair and ruff, but all her MU are subtle and no bright red lips and blush.  Plus she looks a little 'waxy' rather than that 'peaches and cream' look that the hair promos have.  God, I wish Goldtassel ever came to the forums or you could contact vendors here.

    Waaaaahhh, I want to know!!!  Getting ready to stomp my feet now! crying

  • Silas3DSilas3D Posts: 813

    I am 100% positive that the texture is Pierrette, just look at the eyebrow shape and makeup colour and positioning. The test render I added clearly isn't a final render and materials not optimised so that's why she looks waxy hehe! Have you tried PM'ing Goldtassel?

  • sapatsapat Posts: 1,735

    I wasn't aware we could contact vendors at Daz like we can sitemail at rendo.  Doesn't Pierrette have all that 'whiteface' clown paint on all her MU except a couple?  I wouldn't have any use for the clown stuff, just want regular MU.  I've put her on my wishlist since she's very expensive.

    How do you contact vendors here?

    Daz 3D does support for the PAs, it is part of the brokerage agreement.   Those who do actually post in the forums you can try sending them a PM by clicking on their name (under the Avatar) and selecting "message"  or by going to your in box and starting a new discussion there by typing in their user name,

  • sapatsapat Posts: 1,735

    Thanks, I've been coming here since 2006 and have never seen Goldtassel post anything!  Or if they have, I've never seen it.

  • sapatsapat Posts: 1,735

    Well, I finally heard back from 'customer support' and they contacted goldtassel who told them someone else did the promo render and they used something with just random dial settings so it's nothing from the store.  They didn't even say what skin or MU was used.  Disappointing that they wouldn't even share the skin/MU used which is what I was after in the first place.

    I lot of time PA's have their own character and morphs that they made for promo purposes only so it wouldn't be available in the store.

  • Ohwell.. thanks for letting us know.

  • 3dOutlaw3dOutlaw Posts: 2,481

    I noticed joelegecko (who makes a lot of ads) posted a pic on DA, with the character, maybe ask him there?

    He posted here   http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/732217/#Comment_732217

    explaining why his characters are not available.

    Unfortunately he is one of the ones that keeps his 'models'...he uses a few custom 'babes' that are his exclusive models.

    Ah well. it never hurts to ask   :)   Maybe "this time" he used a stock character, and want's to share the love!

  • mjc1016mjc1016 Posts: 15,001

    Maybe we could convince him to release them when he does move on to a new one?

    I'd pay for some of his girls...and I don't buy very many characters (I make my own, usually).

  • the character in the OP is quite nice looking indeed. I wouldn't share her either. cheeky

    Funny even loser Lars gets people asking him to share his gals on dA, and people seem to get mad why I say no. Not everyone gets upset, but some do. And some keep coming back to ask as if I would change my mind LOL.

    I don't care if he doesn't want to share the morph, I just want to know what skins and MU was used.  Surely THAT isn't proprietary......frown  Meh, anyway, I posted a comment at DA asking him about it.  I'll prolly get chewed out or ignored, but if you don't ask you never know.

  • Crissie told me in response to my request that everything is the artist's own... the morphs and the textures/skins and they are not available.

  • It would be an interesting challenge to post one's best facsimile of the above character using the models and textures that we already own.  Might be something I try over the weekend...

  • KeryaKerya Posts: 10,943

    Well - he DID answer and the texture is Pierrette, he even told us which headmap! smiley

     

    The texture is the gorgeous Pierrette by AprilYSH ( "aprpier_1headm1.jpg" precisely for the face map ) found here:

    www.daz3d.com/pierrette

    Regarding the morphs... at the risk of repeating myself, I have my own personal reasons for not releasing such characters. I am aware of the interest some people have for them though, so this may be something I'll explore in the future. Thank you for the feedback ;)

  • sapatsapat Posts: 1,735

    Guess I missed the post where he replied it was Pierrette.  Thanks Kerya. 

    So not sure how Kevin's response would be accurate if that's the case.  He's saying everything is the artists' own including the skins.  If they're Pierrette skins, then they aren't his.

    Still have Pierrette in my wishlist for if she ever goes on deeeeeeeeeep discount!

  • KeryaKerya Posts: 10,943

    Joelegecko's usual Promo girl is the one with the special pout - I think he used one of the V4 elite skins as a base, but altered it ...
