    Any ruling on reposts? I'm rendering a new image for the contest (well, technically two but only one applies to the question) and was trying to figure out if I should wait until the contest is over until I post it elsewhere or not.

    Since multiple entries are allowed, please feel free to put your best foot forward and if you feel you can improve on the original post, go for it!

    I think ZamuelNow is asking if it is OK to post one of his contest entries elsewhere before the contest ends.

    I originally conceived this to simply be a render for my Rendo gallery but I figured it fit in here as well. I'll post the parts used later since it'll take a bit to search for a few of them. The title was meant to be a double entendre of sorts though it's interesting that I don't drink and I'm not in the same age range as the woman in the portrait.

    Thanks, Luci45. I like the way the shaders worked out, too. The most fun was making the basic suit have a pretty big mesh offset so the gloves came out looking like thick chunky knit gloves. I used a different tiling value on the neck of the top to make it look like ribbing as much as I could.

    NAE, but I made this a while back trying to do just what you were wanting...a normal everyday character. Genesis with a bunch of morphs.

    This is a bit of a self-portrait...although it turned into a somewhat younger, slightly more awkward version of me.

    Custom-dialed Genesis character using:

    Nice one....but PUT SOME CLOTHES ON, YA NUDIST! *chuckle*

    Normal people can dress nicely too. *smile*

    I do like the quality of the render and also the shape of the face and the "look" on his face.

    What?! And cover up all my carefully-spun body morph dials?? ;-)

    Fine...have it your way. After all, if Goya can paint a Nude Maja and a Clothed Maja (no link to the nude one for TOS reasons, but it's easy enough to find), then why not?

    Used Town & Country for Genesis http://www.daz3d.com/shop/town-and-country-for-genesis
    I like how the shirt bunches around his waist...behaves just like a real shirt!

    Wait, did I just compare myself to Goya? :red: ;-P

    Cool.

    Just a few days left.

    This is harder than I thought because we have a lot of really great entries.

    Keep 'em comin', guys and don't forget to site your products in the entry!

    This is a great topic & is producing some really great renders with unique characters! I snap up whatever product I can that leans more toward the ‘normal’. Not just in characters & textures but also clothing & props. I would love to see a lot more on offer. It would be good to have a thread like this remain active to see more ‘real world’ renders. Maybe inspire more product creation?

    This is not for entry as it was an entry over at a Dreamlight competition but I think it qualifies for the topic…

    Learning To Love... Yourself

    DAZ Products used:
    Victoria 4.2 Morphs++
    Aged for V4/M4
    3D Celebrity Lola (Texture)
    Everyday 1930 for V4
    Reflections (Dressing room furniture)

    Keep up the great renders!!
