Just submitted a set of 10 Asian head morphs to Test, so hopefully -if accepted, it will be out buy the end of the month or early December....
A few pics for any one who might be interested. Basically it will be 10 oriental sculpted head morphs with smile assist morphs. and 5 petite body shape pre-sets.

Skin used in the renders: Naoki for v4/v5 by Raiya. (used the V4 version with the Gen 4 to Gen 6 skin converter.
I do wish someone would do some decent non-caucasian skins for Gen2 F though, (I'm not up to the job sadly as my texture skills are a bit meh....)

    Interesting ... will certainly follow the progress with this product :) Seems to be hard to predict with what kind of product you are coming out next ;) You are as versatile as your products :D

    As for Asian skins, for V4 / Genesis (Aiko5 is not that cartoon-like either) there are actually quite a lot that are decent or better, so if you are interested in the skin only then there are certainly some very good options here in the DAZ shop. And I also see some good options on 'rosity though not necessarily all with Daz Studio materials. As for G2F I like FWEJ Sayuri and Yanmei here in the shop for example, but of course it depends on what kind of Asian look you are after.

    Anyway, good going with your products. Looking forward to more and would also appreciate a closer view on the enclosed body presets :)

    Thanks Renpatsu, yeah I've been trying to mix it up a bit where product are concerned just to keep it interesting I guess....
    There are some good Asian skins for Genesis 1, but from what I understand there is no way to get them over to Genesis 2, sound like that could be a nice financial opportunity for someone out there,:)

    I missed Yanmei somehow, looks good I might have to grab that :) Sayuri is very nice too, but its abit too 'clean' for my tastes personally, I like skin with more imperfections. So ill go with Yanmei. :)
    There seem to be a lack of darker skins though (in general) Sure there are black/African/Caribbean skins and then pale Asian & Caucasian skins with very little in-between the two.
    A darker south east or south Asian or Latin American skin for example - virtually non existent as best I can tell. Odd.

    Agree that it would be nice to have some more darker Asian skin options :) As for skin conversion, you can either use V5 or V4 skins on G2F directly - V4 skins need the "Victoria 4 for Genesis 2 Female" product for the UV and potentially a preset conversion to DUF - or you can transfer the maps on Genesis to e.g. V4 or V5 UV map by using the "Map Transfer" tool. SickleYield got a short tutorial on this on DeviantArt. This works to transfer A5 skin maps to V5 and then to use it on G2F :) You'd need to 'manually' set the maps in the surface panel to the converted ones, but that is not that much work really.

    Ill give it shot, thanks for the tip, although I have to say hats of Raiya for the Naoki skin, one of the best IMO :)

    I love these morphs, but wish too there was some better skin textures. That Raiya one looks pretty good.

    Here is one I did with Tachi and it's OK.

    Where are the Smile Assist Morphs located? I looked all over for them.

    Thanks Luci and nice render, she looks very good :)
    There was a last minute change by Daz, the Smile Assist morphs, became morph controlled morphs, so they dial in automatically when you dial in smile open B (when 1 or more of the east-asia head morphs is dialled in) - so no real need to dial them in manually (unless you want to try them out for other shapes), but I'm pretty sure they should be under pose controls/ head/ expression / east Asia smile assist.

    No, they aren't there in the pose controls and I don't think they are dialing in automatically as the smile really flattens out the lips, does not look like your promos at all. (Raising upper lip and "lip bottom down" seem to help I noticed but I would rather use morphs.) I will post a render later to show this.

    Hi Luci, to avoid confusion we will work though this in the nuts and bolts thread you made on it,
