Teen Josie First Impressions

Looking at the images as they go up and so far I really like the way she's designed as a nice compromise between TJ6 and Belle 6. Better yet, her Pro Bundle looks fantastic with lots of real world clothes. As soon as they get the prices fixed, she's going in the cart.

Yeah, Josie 7 looks fantastic! The first Pro Bundle that I truly lost my breath with! So many natural components (both the figure and her clothes/accesories). Makes my hopes for Jayden 7 leap through the roof!
I have to admit, my all time fave Gen2 female is Belle 6, so I was kinda hoping she'd turn up next. But Josie is looking nice. And wonders will never cease, the pro bundle and other things released for her look ... dare I say it, normal stuff!
I'm not real impressed with Josie's makeups tho. They look way too heavy and harsh and too old for her. And I DO freakin' wish that DAZ would give us at least ONE 3delight render with all the iray ones. :sigh:
Looks like all the items are there now. Unbeliveably, there's an ethnic teen character in the bundle as well. Bravo. The only item that feels out of place in the bundle is the flower outfit, but I guess she'll be the default base for fairies and the like for a while.
And she's now bought and paid for. And only $34 for the Pro Bundle with the full Throttle discount stacked on the PC pricing. Who-hoo! Now that's what I call a bargain.
That's probably my only gripe with Josie 7. Some of the skins/make-ups look closer to late 20s.
I just did a little price test with my 3 revup bonus as well as being in the pa sale plus if I use my monthly pc $6 coupon her pro bundle is $39.34 but if I add something else from the pa sale she drops to $31.79 talk about a bargin really really tempted even though I've never gotten any of the teens before or had use for them she does look like a good character and could always age her up plus can use all that content on my other ladies going to have to think a little on this
FYI, something's wrong with the RoseFairy dress at the moment. DL's but refuses to install. Oh well...
I'm getting the opposite in teh cart. Soon as I add that third item, the prices shoot up to the normal sale price instead of reflecting my discount of 3 items for 60% off. Go figure.
Same here. I can purchase 2 items at discount, but not 3 items...

yep, someone else just posted in the forum that the same thing was happening to them. Discounts are right up to the 2 items, but add that item (and yes, it IS one of the Full Throttle featured ones), than bam, the discounts disappear.
Uber-quickie 3Delight render. I noticed that the right eye went a little crossed after applying one of Capces poses. Other than that, she poses like a dream. Definitely my favorite G3F to date.
And one more 3Delight quickie before I have to call it a night. Darn work in the morning... ;(
As I said in another thread, please try logging out and logging back in. I tested the basket. Had gotten the pro earlier and added 3 more items this time, the correct discount showed on each.
I got that plus the $6 off for PC+. for a total of $28.00 Pro Bundle.
They were very generous with the discounts. Thanks DAZ!
Well even though I said I wouldn't buy G3 stuff I was tempted till I found out that I have no where near enough cash, dumb Aussie dollar is in the toilet right now so even with a cart value of $45 USD that blows out to about $64 AUD.. Ah well get her at another sale some time 10 years from now..
Also not sure how people are getting $28 for the pro bundle I cant get it below $31 and if I add 3 Full Throttle items the pro bundle price goes up not down..
Apparently the people who had 4 Revs aren't having trouble with the cart? But anyone who buys 1-2-3 seems to have prices going haywire.
The Fairy Outfit and Textures will not install through the DIM. Someone else mentioned they also had problems with it.
She looks a bit cartoony to me, she has those big Thorne/Sarsa eyes. I'd like her more if she just looked like a realistic teenage girl, like a teen version of V7. I'm sure there will be characters that will address the appearance, but, I've never been a big fan of this style. I would be more likely to get Eva over her.
CHEERS!
This is the first time I'm tempted to buy anything G3. The other stuff hasn't blown me away yet, but this is an absolutely beautiful item
Looking better than Josie 6? Absolutely but still, way too unrealistic for my taste.
I wont say I am not tempted to grab her for 41% off, I like her make up options (not extreme at all, this is what teenagers do : D I still remember myself with that goth eyeliner : D ) and I like her petite body.
But that dolly face again.......that fact that she looks like a fairy tale princess/cartoon character, not a real world teenager, is really holding me back.
Yeah, I got the Josie 6 Starter Bundle more for the price and other content than I did her. This time round I can't justify doing that.
CHEERS!
She looks more like Pre-teen Josie 7 in places. I think its because she's a bit over-stylized, making her look a bit cartoony. Her head almost seems to be a bit too big for her body in some of the promo images.
I quite like her though. Might consider getting it, or might just wait for Belle 7 instead.
Edit: Actually I take that back. I think she's a great improvement over Josie 6. Its kinda hard to tell because she looks a little different in each of the promos, but I'm really liking her style.
Is that the default face of her in the promo renders for Capsces Poses Teen Josie 7?
Agree. She is very cute, but a little too stylised. Or has looking at all this CG confused me what is realistic and what isn't?
Ho hum, nothing special. Pity she doesn't look human.
In the last promo, she coudl easily pass as Giselle 7 : )
Agreed - she definitely has that cutesy Thorne/Sarsa look about her, which I personally really like so I'm very tempted to buy. Its not a very realistic look though for those who are trying to achieve photo-realism.
Think I'm gonna have to exercise retraint and see what else comes out in the next few months. If Belle 7 and Giselle 7 turn out as good as I'm hoping and Thorne releases some characters, then I'll have no need for Josie.
Also unable to install the Rose Fairy Outfit.
Very impressive looking character model.
This made me laugh, however

Seriously she looks older than I'd expect someone to look on their first date.
I don't know if things are different now than when I was at school, and back then, girls as young as eleven or twelve were dating. Admittedly not everyone started so young, even so... put the rose-tinted glasses away.
It makes me wonder if adults want to remember things differently than they actually were when we were kids and teenagers.
Disappontingly, Capsces Poses Teen Josie 7 don't include the facial expression poses in the promo renders. I really wish that they did. Same with the Callie pose sets by Capsces Digital Ink. Capsces Digital Ink has nice pose sets and the expressions would have been great to have too. The expressions in the sets would be great for go-to quick poses. They are nicely done.
At least all the poses look useful as starters if nothing else; not an excess of standing on tiptoe. They look natural, and not just for 'teenagers';
Yes. It is a worthwhile pose set. Especially for the sale price.
