    Thanks. Your renders of Natasha and Kerry Ann looks great.
    Have you tried any of Thorne and Handspan Studios Genesis Head Morph Resource Kits?
    http://www.daz3d.com/shop/dson-all/genesis-head-morph-resource-kit-3
    http://www.daz3d.com/shop/genesis-head-morph-resource-kit-2

    They provide additional head morphs for Genesis.
    These packs are listed under DSON category
    http://www.daz3d.com/shop/dson-all?limit=60&p=2&utm_campaign=Save+an+Additional+30%+on+DSON+Products+11_07_12
    so you can save 30% on them, if you received a discount code in the newsletter.

    I had seen them, but was more thinking of those that S4 came with and those that Axel for M5 comes with. The other disappointing thing I noticed was that the Evolution morphs for Genesis aren't quite as comprehensive as Morphs++ was and nor where there any improvements. I tried recreating my old Natasha morph, but, there were morphs she used that just weren't there. If those Handspan packs would give me back any of those then they'd be worth a try, but then other people would need them too if I put out any characters like I used to.

    That code runs out before I get paid again, as they always seem to

    CHEERS!

    Very nice,

    The problem I have with lights is that even though I have custom lights as my default set up, when Poser launches, it doesn't load all the custom values for the lights so I always have to reload the lights to get the values that I want, weird!

    When everything comes together the results are great, below is Exinem's Arianne fed into EZ Skin 2 on V5 with the Dark Magus outfit and FK Alanis hair (a perfect fit even though it's V4 hair).

    CHEERS!

    Texture called Eil by JS Graphics from Rendo, tho I didn't use the shaders that came with it, a blend of aged for M4 and homebrew scatter and blinn nodes in Poser instead. Two lights, an infinite backlight and a point in front.

    EZ Skin 2 is really a nice add on. Now I can revisit the old characters and they will get a new look. Below is the render of Ynes

    Also used the lights from IDL Studio 2. Click the image to see it enlarged.

    Now we're cooking!

    Welcome back Bobvan and TheWheelman, nice to see that neither of you have lost your inimitable style. Cracking render there ps1borg and well done Artini, you could almost mistake that for a Reality render.

    Below are a some I've been playing with, I found I could EZ Skin the Genesis Troll and then I decided to try making an alien, the Troll texture came in handy for him too, believe it or not, the alien is M5 with everything spun from existing morphs.

    CHEERS!

    PS (Next up, I'm revamping Swidhelm's Alien!)

    Just finished this up late lat night.

    Trying to work out how want one of my characters from a comic i been trying to put together to look like.

    This may be close to a final look for her. though i will probably change the clothing up a bit.

    Edit: just in case anyone looks back this far
    So i noticed a horrible glaring mistake in the original picture (the one with the gun)

    And had to re-render to fix it, so decided to add a couple changes while i was it

    Great looking renders,

    I couldn't get in to post mine last night as the site was down. Regarding Luxrender, Pret A 3D hope to have Reality for Poser released this month, I can hardly wait for that! There's a demo video on their site and it looks amazing, the promo render of Dublin that they did looks incredible. I'll be prepared to sit out the long render times if they can guarantee results like that every time!

    After a bit of experimentation with normal maps, and a nifty Photoshop plug in from Nvidia that creates them, I decided to revamp Swidhelm's Alien. It had no proper bump or specular maps so I created them from scratch and also did some normal maps. After a rather lengthy process of applying them all to the figure (the tail has over 30 elements, each needing its own maps) I was ready to render.

    Below are the results, to save me having to apply them every time, I saved the .cr2!

    Enjoy

    CHEERS!
