    Here's the10 eyebrow styles, 4 eye outlines, and 7 lash styles. It also shows the mix and match potential.
    The benefit of using the Layered Image Editor for these details is that you can put a different shader underneath the images (like Visual Style or SSS) without losing the details.

    Here's the freebie. For various reasons the light set and backgrounds images used in the promos were not included in the package, but I want you to have them anyway. (No purchase required.) I'd love to see any renders, and if you have any questions, please ask away.
    cheers!

    This looks like something that those who liked my old Animeyes set should definitely consider. It has a lot more brow options than mine did, and if you have the V4 UVs for Genesis 2, you should be able to mix my eyes (or another others) with elements from this set for more customization.

    Thanks Snow! Your Animeyes was the absolute definitive product for eyes in this style in my opinion, and the types of options in your set was a large inspiration for what is included here.

    This is a good segue way to tell you all that this product was in the works when Aiko 5 came out, but the lack of a separate eye surface on the original Genesis figure limited many of the options that are now possible again with Genesis 2. Also, the interchangeable eyebrow styles and eye outlines would not have been possible without the LIE system, unless I did a separate face map for all the different possibilities. I don't need to tell you that would get very resource intensive very quickly.

    This looks good, just love the variety of brows.

    Thanks Scorpio! It was hard to cut myself off at just 10 eyebrows. I have so many manga references laying about the house, the set could have easily been twice as big. Oh well, plenty of unused ideas left over for the next set, LOL.

    I have tried DG Toon Style Eyes for Gen 2 female on Aiko 6 mix with Toon Cam Basic and with the regular camera.
    I have used the light settings, that comes with the freebie backgrounds.
    Images were further composed in Comi Po.
    I have not so much positive experience with toon rendering in Daz Studio and need still to experiment a lot more.

    You are off to a great start Artini. I know the Toon Cam can take some experimentation to get the results you are looking for. It has many options and settings and can do so many cool things. Zigraphix is great about offering assistance if needed.
    Thanks for posting the pictures. I really like both of them.

    What a nice set!
    Had a little time this morning to set up a quick shot.
    Used the included skin preset, eye brows, backgrounds, lights and eyes.
    Thanks so much for including the lights and backgrounds!
    Such a nice thing to do. :)

    Not sure who this girl is.
    But she has a small cat that brings money and customers.
    ;)

    Hey Ippo! Thanks for dropping by and bringing the girl with the Lucky Cat. Every little bit helps.
    I wanted the set be an "everything shown here is included" type of thing, and for it to be easy to use. I'm glad you are enjoying it.
    I always enjoy seeing your renders. Thanks for sharing, and thanks for the kind words.
    cheers!

    OK, so in response to a request in another thread for a male counterpart for this set, I thought I would try the G2F maps on a G2M character. My problem was that I didn't have any suitable male shapes in my runtime. Well I found a bunch of stuff that I had previously purchased but never got around to installing, lol. So 6gb of downloads later, I found these wonderful sets by Slosh.

    I didn't have to do anything special to get the G2F textures on the G2M. The base female UV is baked into the skin texture, so it applied automatically to the male figure. I picked the least "girly" presets for him and here we are.
    In case anyone was wondering, I do plan on making a male version of this set with more masculine eyebrows, less flirty eyelashes, etc.

    I have Aiko 4 and Hiro 4 shapes, and then the Aiko 5 and Hiro 5 shapes on the Gen2 figures.

    I love this set!

    When Hiro 6 ever decide to show up, Please do an Add-on for him!

    What is toon cam basic? I've never heard of it.

    Toon Cam Basic was an earlier version, without as many features as Zigraphix's Camera Magic: ToonyCam Pro.
    http://www.daz3d.com/camera-magic-toonycam-pro
    Toon Cam Basic was given out as part of the PA's Christmas give away in December. It is not in the store anymore, but Camera Magic: ToonyCam Pro is, and well worth the price. I used it in the second picture in the top post.

    BurstAngel, thanks and I'm so glad you like it! A male version is already in the works.
