    Genesis 9 gets a lot of flak, but personally I prefer it to the previous generations.  I get better results with 9 than I ever did with 8, put it that way.

    Saaaame :D

    I would really like to have a 1990 Mariah Carey and a "21 Jump Street" Holly Robinson.

    Also, I would like to have a word or two with whoever had both of them in the same room together and only took one picture.

    Always thought Holly was awesome. Also, hated Mariah from the moment she totally ruined "without you", originally by Badfinger (and it's best cover being made by Heart, which is very loosely the version Mariah based her pos on). So I think even that one image is already more of a disgrace to Holly than necessary..

    Thank you for the education! I thought "Without You" was originated by Nilsson. The only songs I knew by Badfinger were "Day by Day" and "Come and Get It."

    I always thought Badfinger's version was definitive enough. :) And those other version are basically note for note and lack the guitar work of Badfinger's version. Though, Ann Wilson is Ann Wilson.

    Now, the demo of Come and Get It by its writer, Paul McCartney, could be definitive for that song.

    Day *After Day, and No Matter What is also a banger.

     I think you'll find the definitive cover of "Without You" is by Harry Nilsson. IMHO :) (And that's probably why the internet repeatedly and wrongly credits him with being its writer!)

    BTW, bravo @3DIO for spotting the similarity between Tess and Angela Rayner, coincidentally a person I just recently spent quite some time attempting to create a likeness of (I used Alla and Marnie heads as a starting point, combined with extensive tweaking using my morph library). But I got knowhere near really - so Tess will take almost all the strain out of the project (although it'll also drag me kicking and screaming into G9 territory, which until now I've skirted!).

    I always though the Harry Nilsson version was what the Badfinger version could've been if they had given it more consideration. I like both their versions, because they give such a strong sense of melancholy. The reason I love the Heart version, is because they saw the potential to give it an overwhelming sense of dispair, and they completely succeeded. What ruins it in the Mariah version, is how she attempts to mimic the Heart style, but added embellishments litterally everywhere, making it a showpiece instead of a conveyance of primal emotions. And primal emotions like sadness are exactly something that shouldn't be embellished, it takes all the strength out of the message.

    Weird... I thought this thread was about Celebrity lookalike figures and not about coverversions of songs surprise

    Thank you, dear one, for your gentle correction and for pointing out that No Matter What was by Badfinger, which song I loved but didn't know the artist. Time to go through their catalogue.

    Hey guys, take the conversation about songs to its own thread. Don't deraul this thread, please.

    My little tribute to Katherine Mcnamara when she played the role of Clary Fray in Shadowhunters. Head and body morphs are mine. Hair is added with Photoshop

    Morning all, I've searched the thread and Google and see various mentions of RKS porting characters to G9 but as far as I can see, none mentioned RKS Emee which to my eye looks very much like Emma Myers (Wednesday Addam's roomie Enid Sinclair). Apologies if this is buried in the thread somewhere - if so it hasn't made it to the main listings.

    FN Kim for G9 is most likely Hugh Jackman. Not sure about Rhea though.

    Margaux Hemingway would be a nice look to have.  She was a notable looker of the 80s.
    Just don't mess with her, that's all, cause she ain't mucking around in that last shot  :-D

    Her sister, Mariel would be good to have to go with Margaux too.

    The pic in the green sweater reminds me of Xena-era Renee O'Connor.

    The hairstyle seems to make anyone Renee O'Connor.

    Nathan Fillion. Caleb was his character name in Buffy.

    Pretty sure https://www.daz3d.com/v3d-lisa-hd-for-genesis-9 is modeled at least partially on 2000s-era Stephanie McMahon (from WWE Wrestling, if you're not familiar).

  • nDelphinDelphi Posts: 1,979
    I definitely see Nathan Fillion and Stephanie McMahon likenesses, nice catch, guys!

    I agree, and I'm not even familiar with WWE wrestlers, I just looked her up and that convinced me. As for Nathan Fillion, sure. A bit on the smooth side, but certainly him.

    That seems to be Jepe's style, their characters are always really smooth textured and a bit cartoonish in proportion and features, but they are clearly based on celebrities.

    On the subject, its been bothering me who JP Zachary HD reminds me of. My best guess as to who he's actually modelled after would be a young Jannick Bisson. The use of victorian clothes in the promos seems to be a nod to Murdoch Mysteries, and the character is described as a "young man with Canadian roots."

    However, as a hockey fan I can't look at him and not see retired NHL player Patrick Marleau... I seriously doubt that's the basis, but that's my knee-jerk reaction whenever I see the figure. So I think Jepe was aiming for Jannick Bisson and landed a bit on Patrick Marleau.

    Looks like a clear James van der Bleek (Dawsons Creek onward) to me.
