    Those renders are superb! I've been using those musculature morphs myself and they make a great deal of difference even when dialled down low. I've been reticent about Iray as I can only use CPU rendering, but, with results like yours, I'm slightly keener to give it a whirl. I'll get V7 and her HD pack first and then....

    CHEERS!

    I think Iray and its implementation in DAZ are pretty fantastic. The principles of unbiased renderers, how they bounce light around to simulate the way light works in reality really appeal to me. I used to be an Octane user, and spent somewhere in the neighborhood of $500 on the Octane software including its plugins for DAZ and Poser, until DAZ came out with the 4.8 beta with Iray. It was like flipping a switch for me, I really liked Iray + DAZ and immediately abandoned Octane. Haven't looked back since, it's just great. One of the really cool things about Iray and other unbiased renderers is that you can study real-world photographers' lighting techniques and they translate over to Iray very precisely and beautifully. There's over a century of accumulated photographic technique and artistry to study and learn from. Even the most ancient used books on portrait and glamor photography lighting technique can be very insightful towards making good Iray renders. Best of wishes to you with it!

    Thanks!

    I'll have to look at some tutorials first though, I can't expect to do stuff like yours overnight, LOL!

    CHEERS!

    Karen looks a little like Felicia Day to me

    I don't see any resemblance at all.

    Thanks for the tip. I noticed that Massive for G3F has a veins morph, but from the product description and promo images I wasn't sure they would be to my taste. Looking at real world female fitness models, it looks like veins are almost always visible on the hands and feet, usually in the forearms too, often creeping up to the biceps, and (on really lean models) veins can occasionally be seen in the lower stomach area. The Massive for G3F promos and description give the impression that there are veins applied all over the body with one dial, with an emphasis on the torso and thighs (judging by the images). Cool for really extreme bodybuilder physiques, but not as useful for depicting healthy women who exercise and just have a hint of vascularity visible in their arms. I haven't purchased because I'm afraid I couldn't dial in a slight forearm vein without getting extreme veins all over the abdomen. Are there seperate dials for different body zones, or just one vein dial?

    I thought Zev0's Vascularity HD for Genesis 2 was great, giving users the option to dial in veins to different body parts seperately. I'm hoping there'll be a G3F version.

    You're right, the Massive veins are all one morph; I hadn't thought of that. Hopefully Zev0's Vascularity will emerge wit a Genesis 3 version. As new as the current generation is, that might take a while.
