Hey there,

Maybe you already noticed GF 8_1 nose tip isn't symmetric...

With Victoria it gets much worse, on the breasts, back, calves, etc.

See the attached screenshots for reference, with the original and mirrored meshes.

Please DAZ, fix the bugs, it's a nightmare to morph non-symmetrical meshes! ;)

 

Victoria does not need to be symetrical, she is a character based on Genesis 8 Female.
Genesis 8 Female is the base figure, which has to be symetrical. So if you are creating morphs, clothes, hair, geo grafts or any other add ons, use the Genesis 8 Female base, not Victoria 8.

Two first images from Victoria. Third one is the default GF8_1 nose tip

Comparing G8 and G 8.1 (right) females without applying skin shaders and morphs. Looks the same. Why bother?

 

They do look identical. When you say no skin shaders, doesn't 8.1 load with the new PBR shader? I'm not at my computer to try it myself.

No, Genesis 8.1 loads with the original skin and shaders on the new UVs. Victoria 8.1 uses the new shader. 

Ok, thank you! So the new shader is specifically for Victoria 8.1?

No, but Victoria 8.1 is the only character using it so far.

No. I've applied it to Genesis 2, 3, and 8.

It's just a Shader.

Victoria 8.1 - I'm really liking her skin and her eyes!

Was wanting to not limit the bundle to just me. Lets ya choose which products you want and still get the discount ;)

I wish there was a bundle too for a better discount and there’s just so much cuteness!  But I have four of the products in my cart now and getting them instead of Victoria 8.1. I feel like I’m six years old again and can’t wait to play with my new dolls! 

it's been a long while since I worked on anything, my attention has been all over trying new things and getting frustrated in the process. With the new Victoria 8.1 out I am focusing my attention on trying to learn this new skin shader and how to get my large library of products reinstalled so I know what I have before buying more.

So here is my new Vicky tests so far, and yes lighting is still my biggest PITA.

Just a close up of V8.1 with a few adjustments, testing some expressions

My first render with Victoria 8.1.

I think she is very cute.

 

She is cute, but gahhhh....those tattoos. Urgh. 

Not too much of a fan either. The Skin is amazing though and I wish they had made a realistic-looking tattoo to match it. 

She's fantastic, love the lighting!   I am not a fan of the tattoos either, the seem to float above the skin instead of blending into it .. just my thought. 

 The design of the tattoo is very nice, imo, but you're right about it appearing to sit on top of the skin, rather than being a part of it. Is there any way to make it look more realistic?

my first attempt with Genesis 8.1 and Victoria 8.1 skin

 

 

That is so beautiful. What light did you use. The skin looks amazing, did you apply the PBR shader over it?

Hey Petra :)

I think the light was either Fabi's or one of PixelTizzyFit, some KindredArts light in it and no I didn't apply the PBR shader over it. 

Cool, thank you. I have to have a look. 

I have all of fabis, but I am not familiar with the other 2 that you mentioned.

My first render of Victoria 8.1. I am pleased with her. Other then fixing a few poke-throughs and adjusting the lighting a little in Paintshop Pro this is her out of the box

 

Great work! Love the lighting, her expression, and the intricate hand poses which I know takes a lot of work moving hand and finger joints, and you nailed it! The seated pose is very difficult to pull off, especially with dealing with so much poke through, but you did a great job here!

Adorable! :) 

(Why doesn't Victoria 8.1 HD add-on have a thumbnail?)

It does In the Character list same as V8

+ if youu press on anatomy you get the male genitalior & eyelashes for 8.1
