Really? Because of the Oval Office? I
happy rendering, everyone.
Yeah, even though the "Beast" has bigger tires than normal, the ones in the promo renders look like oversized donuts, but at least it looks more believable than other vehicles from the same creator.
Actually, the Beast threw me a curve too. I have heard it is extremely small inside, a tight space due to the amount of armor in the walls of the vehicle. The promo shot shows it spacious and with seats facing the forward facing seats. (I have no idea what the interior does look like, except from photos taken from the street of the presidential couple.)
I have zero need for anything related to the president of the USA so I just checked the product pages to see what was included.
I found it funny that they included that pic in the promos for the Oval Office:
Ah, I see, would never have guessed that. I thought the car looked rather clumsy, and as to the interior, I felt like, If I were president, I would surely start with a thorough redecoration right here ...
Actually, I only looked inside because I was hoping for a sweet liquor storage department. We only have one of these in a car I reckon, in the Polish stretch limo. Would have loved to see something like this in another type of car, but alas. Everything else (except oval office) I already own in one or other iteration: luxury car, VIP plane, over-the-top office space / plane interior ... But I understand that it's about this specific car that you guys are interested in.
Once again the Daz store shows its supernatural ability to put out a product right after it's too late for me to need it. Just released a story three days ago where the office of the President of the United States is a major location, and now, TODAY, here comes the Oval Office. Feh.
(And there's no point buying it now; I doubt I will do any stories involving the president in the future, and the problem with the Oval Office is you can't use it for anything BUT the Oval Office.)
I'll end up buying the limo sooner or later. I didn't today because I spent enough money in the storewide sale on some G3 stuff, but I've been looking for a limo that has an absolutely flat floor between the facing back seats, with no consoles or footwells. Two of Polish's three limos have consoles and footwells and the third is a stretch "party limo" with liquor cabinet etc, which is exactly what I don't want, as is the crusty old 2007 AM limo.
Someone who did buy today's limo: How hard is it to get the presidential seal off everything? Particularly the one in the center of the back seats, since it's the interior I'm mostly interested in?
The Beast does look clumsy due to the heavy armoring, the previous ones especially so.
Couldn't resist the presidents bundle.Bought it and nothing else. Googling related articles for research I found this which looks exactly the same as XI PB Presidential Aircraft. Despite having no tokens, I got the bundle for 16+change by using the the DAZ+ coupon (had it down to $8.00 +change but decided to invest an extra $8.00 in the buundle rather than buying some releases I really did not need). I absolutely love this bundle
. I tested the wishlist and the sale works with a new DAZ+ release so I may dive back in and scoop some wishlisted but probably not because most of my wishlisted items are new or off sale. Unless I buy old old old Daz originals at 89% off, the math does not work for me..
I own other similar assets too but this one wins hands down. You could use the oval as a turret/tower base and kitbash. For seals use Gimp or PS and repaint the seal. I often do this with T-Shirts or Items that have the vendors name or initials slathered over the props. BTW you can buy wish-listed items with code 1776 with just a DAZ+. To further reduce that purchase you have to buy one bundle from yestedays sale (Martin, FG or 3D Universe) and the also buy two individual items from the Universe sale. EG: Martins flower bundle, and 3D Universes character, and the clothing or whaterver. 1 BUNDLE two items will get you the lowest price on the wishlisted sale. For me it was not worth it because I own a truckload of stuff and recently dumped most of my stagnat wishlist and only kept stuff I really, really, need.
Not that I needed or even wanted any of the buy ins but I found getting the universe bundle and the flowers as the two additional items meant that I got all the items from both bundles for less than a dollar more than doing it the other way round... that has left the flower bundle available again for getting even more off another cart today.
It can get messy and sometimes wasteful shopping here at daz.... but it's always good practise to buy later in the day to check if anyone has spotted a saving that might have otherwise been missed
Also because the validity of the earned tokens gets extended by one day if one waits until after 6PM Daztime before pulling the trigger.
dForce SU Bodysuit for Genesis 9, 8.1, and 8 Female | Daz 3D
SueYee products great as always, but I wonder how someone would get into this body suit in real life.
I thought those can be opened from the bottom when one goes to relieve oneself
scene from X2 Xmen United where a brainwashed Nightcrawler tries to assassinate the president taking out several guards before being shot in the arm which ignites the anti mutant feelings
Real life suits, of course, but this one? ;-)
I figure it could work as a shirt with jeans, just would have to deal with poke-throughs. I had disappointing experience with dForce SU One Piece Dress. The chest area dforced horribly.
I had a long-sleeve shirt like this in the 70s, and like @PerttiA said, there was an opening at the crotch. It was kind of stretchy and you pulled it over your head, shimmied it down, pulling your arms in as you worked into it, and then finally smoothed it over your bra, panties, pantyhose... before you snapped it. And when you went the bathroom, the front and back tabs snuck back up, and you had to fight to get it back down to snap again. But, it kept a smooth line for the pants/skirts of the time. Now think about doing this manuever in a bar's bathroom, drunk, and your fingers aren't working like they did when you got dressed sober. I wore it maybe two times. PITA!
A 3D character's clothing doesn't need to consider the reality of actual wearing, as many outfits in the store has shown.
Oh no, I bought that dress specifically because I liked the collar and buttons a lot ... Dang. Couldn't play with it myself yet. Was it so bad you had to return it?
Love Elis Hair for Genesis 9 hair.
It really reminds me of Alice Cullen's hairdo (Twilight Series)
I have this dress, but no problems so far.
I also like it but only wishlisted for the moment. Reminded me a bit of
https://www.daz3d.com/tammy-hair-for-genesis-3-female-s-genesis-2-female-s-and-victoria-4
but it is of course quite different and seems to be very versatile.
This sounds good, thanks for chiming in! Maybe something just went wrong for the poster above, and it's not a general problem? I really need to try for myself now, but just can't find enough time atm. Maybe weekend.
I don't know, maybe it was a glitch. I tried it on a a figure that was somewhat custom, and the breast area just sagged horribly. But when I tried it just now on Vicky 9 it looked fine.
In fact, some characters with petit breasts are causing weird distorsions on clothes, not just this item.
It has become a standard procedure for me to fix those areas with my own character right away.
How do you do that?
if dforce is used, will they become less "stiff" ? Look too starchy pressed for casual.
