Show Us Your Bryce Renders Part 13

Horo said:

A self made terrain with the somewhat adjusted Tau Variant material by David Brinnen. Sky and ambient light by the ErnieClouds HDRI free on my website and the key light by the sun. Snow and ice are melting.

This looks pretty tasty. Like a syrup, perhaps.

Here are my first results with World Machine. I used fractal (perlin), sometimes added noise, sometimes a polygon outlined 'mountain', erosion, combiners. etc. The materials are (modified) materials from various Bryce sources (including Horo and David B) and so are the skies. HDRIs were included in some cases and generally I used soft shadows in rendering.

These look very nice!

The island and lighting from the Hdri Captured Volumetric Skies, the materials are slightly modified, the plane and boat freebies.

What a lovely scene!

Two new scenes with models from the Dark Souls videogame. I went for a super stylised lighting effect and quite happy with the whacky results : )

As always it's a pleasure seeing what everyone shares. Hope all are well!

Looks pretty interesting, I'd even say "mind bending". Reminds me of Thief: Dark Project.

Today I downloaded a few freebies from the Daz3D website. Among other things a panther and and a antelope. I like these older models, as they do not use too much storage, they can be imported quite fast and IMHO they still look good.

You've managed to create a pretty charming scene in the end! Sleep is best when sun is so hot, regardless of what creature you are...

Hello,
this is my render but im lock.. i don't know what can i add without break the atmosphere

Looks cool! Reminds me of vehicles from Star Wars Episode One. Perhaps you could try setting more "dramatic" camera view angle.

I made this for my grandfather's birthday this weekend - he's a huge train fan. https://sketchfab.com/3d-models/reading-i10sa-steam-locomotive-83f8d9e39eab419aa11f647950105fc8 This is where I got the model of the train (i10sa). I tried modeling one myself but I don't think i'm cut out to do such a complicated model outside of college finals :P

Gorgeous train "portrait in the wild"!

Released: 2024-FEB-29; Item: dForce Sci-Fi Pilot Suit for Genesis 9 Rebel Texture Add-On; Vendor: DAZ Originals; SKU: 93713;

Curious as to why the add-on has editorial license but not the required product dForce Sci-Fi Pilot Suit for Genesis 9 Outfit. They look identical other than the colors.

The orange texture is inspired by X-Wing Pilot suit from Star Wars :)

But so is the underlying geometry, which I believe was ArtAngel's point.

Even though I really don't like Daz selling EL items, and won't buy them, the toon-devil on my shoulder is whispering how cool it would be to have a Mandalorian add-on for a set of 3d plate armor...and the toon-angel on my other shoulder is trying not to look tempted.

Considering Daz likely got a license from Disney -who by the way is notoriously draconian when it comes to their IPs- I can't say I'm surprised the X-Wing pilot suit is under Editorial License. You'd have to be huffing some strong copium and hopium to think they'd let Daz have Star Wars-related items (and not thinly veiled ones like RawArt's characters based/inspired by Yoda, Twi'leks, etc) for sale and not have an iron grip on how they can be used.

Pretty sure such things exist in other places. Plus, there are knock-off items in the store, clearly inspired or at least influenced. Sometimes, it's hard to say they're not also influenced/inspired by an Ironman suit. And, EL or not, actual Mandalorian-style armor is fairly distinctive. I guess it depends on your view of such things. Boba Fett has been around since the (in)famous) 1978 Star Wars Holiday Special.

A Thread for Items with the "Editorial License"

one thing I was wondering is the basic suit and the Star Wars add on is the only real difference is the Star Wars one having the orange texture and Rebel signs so if some copyright lawers could maybe make a case if they really were in a mood it's happened before and remember there are other products here under the EL some have asked if they changed or removed something would it be ok and were told no

I seriously doubt the EL will keep the LFL/Disneylawyers away. I am an officer in 1 of the best known Star Wars cosplay clubs. The IP owners have had us and members of our sister club do official events and LFL/Disney doesn't even let us profit from their IP.

I am ... astonished at how the items have been promoted.

And that is all I will say about that.

I never buy this stuff . . . meaning editorial licensed products. Who does? If so why? And if few do why bother? Just questions from a curious soul.

Edit: I was astonished too. But I do appreciate the blantant transparency. I think many of us wanted a blaring sign it was editorial and DAZ has delivered . . . so I really respect this transparent disclosure.

One of the textures sets is 11th in the What's Hot section, and given it cheap price (4.75, even less with discounts/tokens etc) then it would need to sell a fair number of units to get to 11th in the table. Therefore it seems some people are buying. The Star Wars set seem more popular than Battlestar Galactica. DAZ would not keep selling the editorial items if they were not making it money. Though why they are allowed to make money off these items, and users are not, is a question that perplexes me, and I guess a lawyer would know best.

Kara 9 'a bunch of polygons with a haircut'

Crescent said:

I don't trust the "dForce Sci-Fi Pilot Suit for Genesis 9" and "dForce Daybreak Outfit for Genesis 9" outfits since the texture packs add-ons have editorial licenses. The outfits are waaayyyyy too close to the originals. I don't want someone to look at my stuff and say, "Oh, that's a Star Wars outfit or Battlestar Galactica outfit, but colored blue." That means I'd only get one outfit in the pack and that one has torso cut outs. Yes, I can create a geoshell for the torso that matches the texture in the outfit, but it's a pain.

I despise these "Editorial License" products. If it's a potential copyright/trademark issue for us to make commercial renders, they shouldn't be sold in the store.

Agreed.

Kara 9 'a bunch of polygons with a haircut'

Interesting. I wouldn't have realized it was supposed to be Katee Sackhoff without it being mentioned. The more obvious one to me is Michael 9 looking identical to Oscar Isaac.

Cybersox said:

I have to wonder if Katee Sackhoff is actually getting anything off of this, as for once we have a celebrity likeness where there's absolutely no attempt at all at disguising exacty who the figure is modeled on... That said, I have to say that absolutely love the figure as not only is it the first G9 model since V9 that actually looks like a real human being without any wandering into toon territory, but it's also a female bodytype that's unique to G9 base figures so far. The Pro Bundle is a fairly solid mix as well, though I presonally have no use for yet another robot/chicken walker vehicle, but given that the total Pro bundle price in my cart was only $24.78 (with several add ons and 8 tokens applied) and that there are actually Star Wars and BSG specific add-ons, this was the easiest G9 bundle purchase I can remember making.

Kara 9 'a bunch of polygons with a haircut'

I like the character because she's looking great for militarized settings, but I don't think I'll go for anything with editorial licensing. Problem here is that whilst the base suit without addons comes only with the regular license, the shape is unmistakingly Star Wars pilot suit and the add-on only alters it a little with more colors.

It's going to be safer to put a generic space suit on her.

Ditto for the daybreak outfit.

Kara 9 'a bunch of polygons with a haircut'

The quote in the title is a slight modification of a quote by Starbuck, from Battlestar Galactica : 'It's your chance to find out if you're really god or just a bunch of circuits with a bad haircut.'

Main render of Kara 9 (no idea who did this render, but the file name is CakeKaraMain, so maybe Cake One ?):

Pro Bundle: https://www.daz3d.com/kara-9-hd-pro-bundle
Starter Bundle: https://www.daz3d.com/kara-9-hd-starter-bundle
Kara 9: https://www.daz3d.com/kara-9

The HD Addon is back and is not part of Kara 9.

One thing to keep in mind when taking advantage of the promotions surrounding the launch of Kara 9 (all linked with her Pro Bundle), the new products related to Star Wars and Battlestar Galactica are obviously covered by an Editorial licence:

Star wars: dForce Sci-Fi Pilot Suit for Genesis 9 Rebel Texture Add-On

Anime style

I'm going to suggest things that are stylized (so it ranges from anime to a videogame aesthetic) come to mind under the different generations. Rather than link every product, I will be linking bundles that contain several products that may be of interest. The following list is in no particular order, btw.

Stores of PAs with a lot of stylized content:
