    While I apprechiate artist creating male content, I am quite often disappointed by the content we get. Why is it always pretty white ladies, the asian one who got released a couple of days ago, she is so pretty. I haven't bought her yet, I'm waiting for a sale because this March Madness has drained my wallet quite badly. But everytime we get a new male character, it's old, uninteresting. At least to me. There is 1 item from the bundle I actually wanna get, but that's it. Create a high quality male teen character, just like teen Josie or any others, that way people will buy them in pairs. Just my 2 cents

    I'm sorry, but which store are you looking at? Because I must respectfully disagree. :P

    A lot of the characters are matching pairs. Leroy and Nida, Jonathan and Josephene, Kanade and Yuzuru, Deigo and Gabriela, Elios and Ellithia, Sanjay and Kala, Mr Woo and Mrs Chow, Ollie and Edie, Floyd and Mabel, Monique and Darius, Victoria and Michael, etc...it's not like they're only making young girls and old men.

    Also, you've got characters like Deigo, Silas, Yuzuru, Sanjay, Nix, Lee, The Brute, Landon, a pretty diverse cast of male characters who aren't old.

    If you don't mind me asking, what exactly would you consider an "interesting" male character?

    Apparently there is a lack of Teen males. I saw more than one person complain about this.

    In my mind there's nothing special about a teen and there are already a few teen males that are great, without the need for a DO character for it, but that is just my preference. I have 0 interest in a teen male.

     

    Well, I can agree with that. Just look at the new releases. 2 MORE Teens for G8F. 0 for Males overall. I don't know why that is, but apparently they don't sell. The only reason why I'd wanna buy a teen male is for the skin texture, and morph it further. I just don't think it's fair to have that more females... But on the other side, I understand PAs, why would they spend their time creating something and risk not selling enough.

    If there was a very interesting teen male maybe I could be interested in him but the previous generation teens were so generic and bland that I would not be.

    I think there are so many other interesting types of characters we don't have yet that caucasian teen male is not one I would be interested in. For example Dasan 8 is very interesting, he looks like he has a back story to him. 

    Of course this is only my opinion. If there are enough people interested in a teen male, why not have a pro bundle for that.

    Another thing I would want to mention though is that lately I see a pattern for pairs of characters being released: CJ and Dain, Leroy and Nida, Jonathan and Josephine. Because of that I would expect a pair to Dasan to be released before anything else.

    Maybe the chance for the teen male was missed after Raven of Josie. 

    Male-M3dia made some G8 male teens that are perfectly good and I think better than something Daz would have come out with to be honest. The downside is that they are only shapes with no textures.

    After seeing your response, Laurie, I decided to go ahead and post what I was not going to post:

    According to Daz representatives from the past, young males sell poorly, even to the point that Tween Ryan 7 was virtually given away for free as a new release. (Perhaps marketing figured, "We're gonna lose money anyway; so, let's buy some customer goodwill instead").

    Also, Lucas 8 is late teen to early twenties, and he is probably one of the least popular G8 Core figures, which solidified Daz's original contention (although his orange, waxy, featureless skin and lack of morph personality may be more of a factor in low sales than his age and gender). BTW, Altern8 fixes Lucas 8's skin very nicely.

    Although young male is the character category that is least interesting to me, I still need them for scene fillers. This past weekend I was finally able to pick up some wishlisted young males at a price befitting their value to me---though not their high quality: JustinJoshJeremy, & Nick. Them, along with Male-M3dia's unparalleled male teen morph packs (these morphs easily rival Core figure quality in detail and distinctiveness) and skins like Nix 8 and Gage (as well as Genesis 8 UV Swap to use female skins) make it possible to field an entire teen male sports team as well as their opponents with no repetition.

     

    I believe Lucas's poor sale performance isn't so much due to him being young and Male ... but that he wasn't such a convincing character. Mousso's new Asher is also young and Male and seems to perform well.

    I agree (as I suggested in my post). I think Mousso's new character is doing well because Keanu. I don't know if there is another male person alive with more cred among our ilk than Keanu.

    Nice shot of Dasan!

    I agree with your points about Lucas and especially his skin problems.

    I think Asher looking like Keanu certainly helps ... but I think what's more important is that he is simply very well made, a typical Mousso character. Now he might not perform equally well compared to female characters sales-wise and it might also factor in that he is not DO, like the rest of Mousso's characters. But I hope he sells well compared to other males and hopefully Daz will take notice.

    Dasan 8 is amazing and he is great as a base for creation the custom characters.

    Just one example of a custom character based on him, rendered with Daz Studio default lights setup...

    Also used hair from https://www.daz3d.com/blair-hair-for-genesis-8-males-and-females

    Amazing is right! Thanks for posting. We are getting so many great options for Genesis 8. I hope they keep them coming.

    I had no use for the MoonAge Outfit; so, I decided to remember the incomparable Bowie. Ashes to ashes, funk to funky, we know Major Tom's a junkie, strung out in Heaven's high, hitting an all-time Low. My mother said to get things done, you better not mess with Major Tom.

    Keep your electric eye on me, babe. Put your ray gun to my head. Press your space face close to mine, love. Freak out in a Moonage Daydream oh yeah.

    Dasan is a great figure with lots of character. I imagine he'll also be very good for dialing in with other morphs if you want a mature male. The bundle is the weirdest I've seen but in a good way. Lots of potential for fun over the top creatins. This is just me messing with the retro space suit.

    I would agree that in my opinion Lucas just seemed very plain or his features seemed generic compared to some of the sharper features that could seem more striking or memorable. They don't always have to be good features as we see with Ollie, but it helps him stand out and adds something different to the mix.

    That is why I liked Ollie, why I like Dasan. They stand out. They are not handsome by any conventional ways (maybe Dasan used to be in his youth) but they stand out. They look like they have a life outsite of the render, a personality.

    Aaaaaaaaaaaaand again, LOVE! This is giving me real Red Dead Redemption vibes :D

     

    That's exactly true.

    I agree. I think if Daz made Lucas now, obviously a little more detail would go into his skin and materials and he'd probably have something to give him a youthful quirkiness. Was he the companion to Charlotte? I think Charlotte still looks really great, but I agree Lucas seems a bit waxy and matte in his promos... but that's not a judgement on the morph! Perhaps with a more HD skin texture + normals, some asymmetry dialled in, he'd look brand new :) :) Dasan's materials are clearly outstanding. He makes me excited for what's coming down the pipeline with the DO core characters :D

    @lana_lass Thank you very much. I knew I'd have to spend too much time to make it look like Bowie; so, I just had to walk away. Red Dead Redemption was the ballpark. Thanks.

    I'm excited too, but I have to temper it with the memory that the Core Figures are an uneven bunch. Speaking only of skins: I thought we had entered an age of excellence with Babina 8, but Teen Raven 8's skin was lackluster (though her morph is one of my favourites). Then Leisa 8 was near Babina 8's level, but Jenni 8 was a step down, and Robyn looked like a V4 skin. Darcy was too painted, but CJ 8 brought the level back up, and Josephene's skin was pretty decent.

    Dain 8 had the best skin of any of the men preceding. Leroy was too painted. Jonathan was quite good, and now Dasan is on the photographic level if he's lit competently (which is MY issue). His morph is amazing.

    In the end I purchased Dasan and thought I'll give him a render and share with you guys.

    Love it @Alex86fire! Did you get any of the items used in that render as part of the extended Dasan deal? I know you spent time considering your cart :) It's very cool!

     

    I don't know why I'd convinced myself that today (Easter Monday) would be the release day for the counterpart for Dasan 8! I literally went straight onto the site after breakfast to check and was mega disappointed not to see a new core character banner... but I had NO actual reason for thinking this would happen haha. It'll probably be a few weeks yet, but I think I'm going to hold back my store credit in any case :)  @xyer0 raises a good point about the core figures being "an uneven bunch", I can see that from the examples provided... but I've still got my fingers crossed that they'll follow Dasan up with a counterpart of equal quality... and that'll be AMAZING!

    @lana_lass Thank you very much. I knew I'd have to spend too much time to make it look like Bowie; so, I just had to walk away. Red Dead Redemption was the ballpark. Thanks.

     

    Well, I don't think you had to walk away too soon -- it's a really close likeness to Bowie in that famous shot! :D

    Alawa 8 showed up in the fits for an outfit that was released a couple weeks ago, so I would guess we’ee Not that far off from a female counterpart to Dasan.
