Asha 9

Character: https://www.daz3d.com/asha-9

Character Bundle: https://www.daz3d.com/asha-9-hd-character-bundle

HD Add-on Bundle: https://www.daz3d.com/asha-9-hd-add-on-bundle

The steampunk's promo renders are wonderful heart

I think my current favorite is this one:

And both the steampunk outfit from the character bundle and the City Enforcers outfit from the other bundle are great, in a no non-sense steampunky kind of way, even if it's a bit too bad that they were not more gender neutral.

Overall, it's been a while since I was tempted to get a bundle on release day (nice decision I took of not using the bundle coupon before the end of my previous montly premier subscription :o).

    She looks nice. Plus I like the City Enforcers outfit (which of course would be in the theAdd-on bundle - Grrr).

    However, I've only bought the Messy French Braid because I already have a use for it

    I like Asha 9. A natural, beautiful face without duck lips, a body without balloon breasts — that's become almost rare at Daz. The skin seems to be good. I also really like the steampunk theme.

    Although I actually planned to stop buying female core figures: as soon as the character bundle is unlocked for Premier members, I'll use my monthly coupon for Asha 9, and maybe I'll get the add-on bundle too.

    The promos make her skin look too similar to Olympia 9. I may eventually get the HD add-on bundle, though I barely got Censored's female toon the other day..

    I like her face. It's got a Mediterranean/Middle Eastern look to it.

    Steampunk is one of my least favorite things.

    The promos made me wish I did Steampunk at all. Those are some beautifully done outfits.

    I really really like this character, so natural and sweet and no big chest, lovely! Don't care too much for the steampunk theme, although the XI slum environment looks quite bashable, so I might get this in the future. It's a pity though that there are no real bundle buying benefits offered as far as I can see. Might wishlist Asha for now because of that.

    do you think it will get added to the member bundles today?

    THey have in the past. The forgetting to add new characters to the coupon 'mistake' gets old

    It's never too late to do Steampunk!

    I like her a lot.  I like her bundles, especially the hairstyles, and it looks like Daz has embraced Censored's Filatoon style.

    I'm about to spend way more than I should but the Censored toon shape and – more importantly – the Filatoon settings make it too hard to resist.

    I want to take advantage of the Wishlist discount as well, but I'm not getting it on this product:

    https://www.daz3d.com/atomica-city-bundle

    I don't believe it's a new product anymore, am I mistaken? If it's not too new, is there any other reason I wouldn't see a discount?

    A product is considered new for two months after its release.

    The product you're speaking about still has a New tag (on green background in the top right corner of its main promo render).

    Ah, more coffee needed (I'd opened the product page and didn't see anything, having missed the tag *before* I opened the page); thanks for confirming that's what the issue is, I appreciate your help.

    The tag is on the main promot page too - though with the busy image it doesn't leap out.

  • I don't do steampunk but I like the character a lot more than any recent ones. As others have said, Asha lacks the common  exaggerated (IMO) lips and bust. I also like the hair. 

    But the outfit would be strictly for kitbashing. If the steampunk trim isn't modeled in - anyone looked at it that closely? I like the gloves and boots. I could also see using the pants expecially the texture, but I worry that even if the bands are removeable, the pants are modeled so they won't look right without them. Same for the top - will it look good without the vest?

    I am impressed with the mechanical arms, although I wouldn't have much use for them. (Well maybe for a scene with a superhero & villain fight, since theme supervillains tend to be one trick ponies.) I'm surprised, in a good way, that they are part of an outfit, especially one in the character bundle. It's the kind of cool item that's often sold standalone, probably in the add-on bundle, like most of the cyberware for Lyna 9.

    https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-city-enforcers-outfit-for-genesis-9 looks to have a lot of kit-bash potential, the neck piece would add to may things and the top half should go well with a skirt  if possible (might be an issue connecting them though).

    Richard, you are too experienced to do link errors https://www.daz3d.com/dforce-city-enforcers-outfit-for-genesis-9

    yeah, it's a good character. the only thing which is a bit distrubing is the painted hair in their crotch area. Would be great to have here an alternative texture which is complelty shaved.

    Grr, my finger must have bounced on the space bar (two sapces was the issue).

    Asha 9 character bundle, as small as this bundle is, now resides in the Premier member free items. Happy camper I am. I like all the stuff..hair, clothing, character. A winner.

    I was waiting for this, too.  I might use my free character bundle early this month because I like her, and starting a steampunk collection would not be a bad idea.

    As someone who is a big fan of Arcane, I was delighted to see this

    The character reminded me of https://www.daz3d.com/robyn-8 , especially in the promo at the top of the intro page https://www.daz3d.com/introducing-asha-9-hd

    I wonder whether tomorrow will bring another add-on bundle more suitable for iray. Hopefully for a different genre as well, since I have little use for cyberpunk or victorian products.

     As much as I enjoyed the Arcane series, I think this "live action" version is really cool! And I'm not usually a fan of "fan art".

    I love seeing a new steampunk theme.

  • memcneil70memcneil70 Posts: 5,315

    It reminds me of Topsy 8. Loved her and all her outfits.

    thanks xD though to be fair, I really loved Caitlyn in the league of legends cgi before they went toon shading; i still love her in arcane too though

    It's been a very long time since we've had any core figure with multiple bundles, so I wouldn't hold my breath...

    Don't worry a different character with a different theme will come along in a week or two.
