    He would be pretty good Conan or Terminator, that is for sure. I am going to (try and) wait though to see if the Girl 9 and/or the Guy 9 come up before August since another poster mantioned The Girl 9 possibility.

    The poster doesn't have any more insight than you about whether a Girl 9 is forthcoming; she just said that she WISHED Daz would release Girl 9.

    Calum 9 looks like good work. I'll probably use him mainly for the gene pool. Very good for giving male characters that are a bit too feminine a little more masculine profile (I didn't mean that in a transphobic way). Only the fringes of the “Untamed” hairstyle are a bit hilarious. Luckily it has some morphs.

    Some names are very easily misread.  I saw the movie title "Berberian Sound Studio"  many times before I even noticed it was "Berberian", not "Barbarian" .

    Quite like the big barbarian - great job,Dazzers - thanks to those who provided the 8k renders (will need a sale etc etc)

    And speaking (well, typing) about Action Heros

    I'm holding out for a Girl like 4 and as a TOON

    the Girl 4 Pro Bundle

    (not a Girl like 8 - which I thought was too "bland")

    Oh, well, then it's Callum this month almost certainly. Thanks.

    is it possible to reduce his muscle bound self a bit? Otherwise I like the skin texture and his face.

    Well, ignoring the obvious by simply dialing down his body morph and dialing in some of the base masculine morph, I decided to try something I call Project Scrawny.  I dialled in a bit of Charlie FoxTrot who is the least muscular Genesis 9 character I have, and I toned down the pecs with a Tempestra morph or two, and added a bit of the Emaciated morph. My guess you want something less extreme so this is more proof of concept.

    I just started a little rendering interrupted by a screening of Superman: the first is his oh so serious face and the second is an altered version included 50% Emrys Kohl Stylized, and some deaging via The Age from PFA

    Hi there, may I ask which hairs are used in the first render? 
    Thank you.

    It is dForce AK Knight Hair for Genesis 9, 8, and 8.1 male  which is no longer in the store.

    dforce Freddy Hair for Genesis 9 and dForce FV Dramatic Side Sweep Hair for Genesis 9 have a similar "Superman curl" if that's what you're looking for.

    His shaping morphs have his body, head, proportions, HD details and veins all as seperate dials, so you can add in base masculine and dail the rest back. You'll need to adjust the neck and neck taper. In the HD version, having the 'HD details' dial turned all the way down will remove the etched in abs, and getting rid of the vein pop-out makes him look like much more your average joe.

    In the promo pics for him he has bandages on his arm along with a greatsword and plenty scars on his body, I'd ssume inspiration of Guts from Berserk, anyone know what bandages those are?

    thanks. I might pick this guy up, and his HD. I can get the bundle free 1st of the month, but I've purchased a couple using my 8 tokens and DO $10 coupon. I can get the character bundle for $12 right now ... or just the character and HD for %10. I'll never use the 2 additonal products in the bundle.

    For reasons that are unclear to me, I decided to render Calum 9 and Scar 8 straight out of the box and not their HD versions since they were both barbarians:

    Anyone else having a problem with Caius not showing up for them to download? I currently have Premier membership.

    He isn't showing up in either DAZ Install Manager for through the download option in the Smart Content pane (I can never remember what you call it).

    You can only download Premier exclusives through Connect. Log into Daz Studio and update metadata and you should be able to find him, and download him.

    You are looking in the Install pane, or in the All or Available install state filters (tabs along the bottom) of the Products tab of Smart Content?

    I install all of my content through the Smart Content pane (when available). ALL PRODUCTS and AVAILABLE is selected, FILTER BY CONTEXT is also unchecked. My METADATA has also been updated. And it hasn't all ready been installed into my computer...

    Only thing I can think of is my Premier Membership. It ends the last day of July. However, that shouldn't exclude me from getting the perks. Or so I'm assuming...

    It is hard to tell from your image but there are two tabs that look similar: what you show looks like Smart Content showing what you haven't installed and a separate Install Tab which is where the new characters will install from.  Use that second tab.

    the install tab is at the bottom left in your picture.

    The INSTALL pane is the exact same as SMART CONTENT>AVAILABLE pane. I rarely use the install pane, but opened it up just to make sure I wasn't missing anything.

    Thanks, though.

    Have you tried putting Caius in the filter box at the top of the pane?
