Body shape looks a little bit more "fleshy" this time, which I absolutely like, just
unlike most other G9 characters' body shape, that usually don't have a lot of variety.
I'd say this promo fits the description:
One can quibble whether she's a librarian in the strictest sense, but she's making eyes at you over her glasses, she's sitting in a pose that emphasizes her breasts (and the amulet draws attention to them), and holding a pen between her lips in a somewhat suggestive way. There's also the Librariancore outfit, which features short skirts and knee/thigh-high stockings. I wouldn't say they're leaning especially heavy on the "sexy librarian" trope, but it's certainly not absent.
The Librariancore outfit also features a dress well past her knees, I wouldn't think that touching something to your mouth briefly automatically sexualizes a profession, and news flash, women have breasts.
Reading these forums is exhausting. ;)
She's more or less exactly what I asked in the poll by Daz! So bought her on D1.
Core characters are done so well, and they come low-cost (or free) with Premium Subscription. Yes, in shaping, they can do a better work in differentiating bodies and faces. But no one of us is perfect :)
I guess it's sexy ..... if that's where your mind is at, or, if that is what you want to make of it. To me, she is a student, probably a graduate student working on her thesis (either masters or doctorate, but I get a definite doctorate vibe), and giving "the look". This particular look is one that states quite clearly "You better sit down and shut up or I might just come over there and kick your a$$."
Of course that's just me. In my mind, just because the character in the image is attractive, I don't automatically think she is being "sexy".
Personally, I tend to not like most of the DAZ G9 (female) "flagship" characters. Most simply aren't something I'm interested in using. Even as a free character bundle I'm not interested in them (one of the reasons I'm not really interested in having Premier membership every month, plus I hardly ever use males so they are of little interest). I may pick up the Audrey Character Bundle before my current Premier membership runs out, she is definitely the best option available IMHO right now, and a character I might actually use, and not avoid using.
What is your proposed solution to the alleged problem of sexy librarians in media?
One skirt well past her knees, four above them.
Yes, it's certainly not as if a woman putting something in her mouth is standard shorthand for seduction or anything.
Woman have breasts, and decisions made in posing and framing can make them more or less prominent in the scene.
I bought both bundles on the first day and I think the characters are a good addition to our gene pool. Especially since they can be a great base to morph off of.
That said, I did not buy a lot of the extras for the 'librarian' outfits. I volunteered at a MWR library for a year or so in the early 1990s and the head librarian was a male, professional librarian. The staff were all women in their 50s to 40s, civil service employees. Their focus was to have materials available for college to elementary studies, entertainment (videos, music, magazines) and to encourage reading in small children. And to create a safe, welcoming place for everyone on the base, military, civilian, and dependents to relax, research, read, learn and enjoy themselves. That is what every library I have ever walked into has tried to do.
I was offended by the 'sexy librarian' promos to say the least. But then I don't like the tropes used for Native Americans, Africans, Hispanics, Asians... people are so much more than what those tropes restrict them to.
It's the market, we as customers created ourselves. Sex sells. Sadly that's the plain and simple truth. Most of the Daz figures are being used for porn in one way or another. It would be refreshing to see some regular "normal" stuff, like poses and clothing. But since the market is not for regular and normal, this is what's in store and it will only get worse. We "normalize" those poses and "clothing" I see it in the games I play. Males get full body armor, women are stuck with metal bikinis
I don't agree with this, but there is little we can do about it, just grit your teeth, choke back the bile and move on.
She's an adept studying arcane texts, which is why she's wearing the philosopher's stone alchemical symbol around her neck and is seated between two symbolic pillars like Boaz and Jachin. "Pen to mouth" is used by Freemasons regarding the transmission of their teachings and rituals. Modern media is rife with masonic symbolism, but it goes over the heads of "the profane," as they call the uninitiated. Obviously, the artist knows this symbolism and is using it.
This is getting a bit personal, and also a bit circular. Please try to keep the conversation on the topic rather than other people, and to avoid simply reiterating entrenched postions.
Has any one had Alice for Audrey appear? She's a bit tardy
I wasn't really interested in Audrey, but was going to get the lovely hairs eventually. But since the sale specials today dropped the price for the bundles, I ended up getting the lot. Just had a play with them and did a couple of quick renders. I prefer Audrey mixed with other shapes better than on her own. First image is 100% Audrey. Second is 70% Audrey and 50% Cherubit's Valentina.
Great renders! Thanks for posting. :)
In case someone hadn't noticed: the Audry bundles are included as $5.99 items in the Golden Ticket VIP Pass orange banner promotion.
What is the VIP Pass? Can you provide a link? Thanks.
Orange banner
Thank you, I was not seeing that banner. Maybe it isn't for everyone?
Check your messages. There were two banners for me and one covered the other on the store page.
I did, which is why I wonder if this is perhaps reserved for people who bought a Golden Ticket item every day (I did not, but I did buy a lot of stuff).
Hey! I made that “problematic” promo for Audrey 9
I just wanted to clarify something. What’s wrong with showing a bit of subtle sexiness in a promo, regardless of the character’s profession? Guys, she’s clearly a young adult character.
Honestly, this whole thing caught my attention, and I’m writing here because my name is visible on it. I just don’t want people to misunderstand my intention. People can interpret things however they like, and that’s fine, but I’ve seen comments about “sexy underage characters” and “problematic behavior,” which feel way too extreme in this case, in my opinion. If we’re going down that path, there’s plenty of genuinely questionable content out there that would deserve that kind of criticism before this.
She’s fully clothed, and the glasses are positioned that way simply to show her eyes better without the spotlight reflection. This is a promo to sell the character, that’s all. There’s no “masonic” or hidden meaning behind it. I just wanted to portray an attractive young woman in a librarian-style theme, seeking knowledge in old occult books, and of course, posing for the camera. The inspiration came from Rachel Weisz’s character in The Mummy.
No one called me here, I just wanted to clarify that :) Thanks!
Some people see sex in everything. I thought it was a very nice promo.
I think it's great work, and thanks for letting us know about your inspiration. I can definitely see it, of course that's one of my favorite movies.
Vulgarity is in the eye of the beholder
Nice promo BTW ;)
4 items in the character bundle... PASS
That's unfortunately what all of the more recent DAZ figure bundles have been... perhaps the inevitible result of the "free character bundle every month" coupon being part of Premier.
Alice never turned up!
Few other randon tests attached using her HD. Eyebrows needed swapping out.
Audrey 9 vs another core character and one of the HID ladies.
Out of the box vs a Natural Bend morphs applied.
Trying her out with a few other random recent pick ups
Please check again for Alice, she forgot to take a left al Albuquerque
If you don't mind, genuine curiosity here. What should be in a character bundle? What should not? Doesn't have to refer to this specific bundle in any manner.
