So I have so little stuff for Genesis 2 that when I have to use her, I go insane. LOL.
I'm looking at poses, so thought I'd send a call out for those who use her to tell me their favourite pose sets for her. Whether you love them cos they are extremely versatile, or because tehy are very well made and look realistic or whether you just think they are gorgeous poses.
Sexy, contemporary, sci fi, fantasy poses, whatever.
What are you favourite pose sets? I'm on the hunt and ready to buy!! (or get free, whichever the case may be)

My fav poses are the inspire ones from Shimuzu. They work fine for GF2, as do most for genesis and even v4.
ah! I have the Inspire ones! I LOVELOVE them.
I'll have to try them on Gen2 then....I haven't done that yet. Gen2's feet and hands don't go all wonky when using Gen1 poses on her?
When they DO try this little Gem. It makes older poses worth having and loving...

I agree I love the Virago and Inspire Poses by Shimuzu and use them on G2 just have to tweak a bit, no the feet don't go wonky.
I also love the Soulmate poses by Morris so much that I did actually buy the new G2 ones.
thank you! wishlisted :D
It's stretching the term "poses" somewhat but I really like the Elation Expressions set.
Cheers,

you know, I don't usually buy expression sets cos I enjoy doing them myself, but there's something about Genesis 2 that I seem to have trouble with. Dunno what it is, but when I think I have a nice wide open lipped smile, it renders and her lips are closed. Might have to look into those expressions.
Greetings,
I'm personally partial to the Subtle Poses set, which if you have it for V5 you also have it for V6 and vice versa. There's also the Perfect 10 poses, which are pretty helpful for getting a character into the approximate spot quickly.
I've noticed that Danie and marforno have started doing G2F poses on Another Store, which is really nice.
I'll have to try the Inspire poses, that came as part of the Virago Poses for V5, on G2F. They looked wonderful, but I think I switched to G2F fully before I spent much time with them.
As for expressions, I've found like...three positive expression dials that work, all the rest make the face look subtly deformed. Flirting (not left or right) is the best smile I've found, although I don't own any of the 'Smile'-specific expression packs. I don't like it when a smile makes the mouth press inward, creating a 'dent' around the lips. That's just not how I see people smiling on a day-to-day basis. Also with the baring of teeth; outside of hollywood, I just don't see that on people's smiles. (Truth be told many of the less positive expressions work much better, but for my own sanity I try to avoid rendering unhappy/scared/disgusted people, even though I know those expressions typically tell a deeper story.)

I"ve got Subtle Poses on my wishlist..I like the look of those and it's an excellent bargain you get the V5 AND the Gen2 ones together.
I rarely use the big wide grin with teeth showing, but I wanted one for a particular picture where she was mainly laughing out loud - but the expressions in the "expressions" area just don't seem to work as well as I could get on Genesis. I found that with Genesis, I could really fine tune them and they looked excellent, even the very subtle ones. But somehow the Gen2 ones.....dunno what it is. They just don't seem to work subtly...it's like you have to REALLY dial them up to get anything.
I really like Perfect 10 poses, the difference between all other poses is that they include also expressions, and indeed are very expressive poses.
New Dm's sensual poses looks gorgous too and now they have 51% disccount if u are Pc memeber.
how about http://www.daz3d.com/blondie9999
walk dont run from blondie9999. they look very useful. although I wonder if there is much overlapping when buying all these different pose products?
edit: whoops. :D
I really like these: http://www.daz3d.com/i13-glamorous-poses
I also picked up the three from DM that were offered a few days ago and they're all awesome... but I'm one of those people that buy DM environment sets mostly for the poses so I'm a little biased. =) http://www.daz3d.com/danie
with the poses sale over at the Other Place, there are a few Gen 2 pose sets in there, so I'm happy. :D
