MarketPlace Showcase F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Dec 21 2:40 am)
Subject: quick little preview of 'Nia' by Rio and myself...
nia is not 6 feet tall :) the head is in proportion for a 5 foot tall teenager. keep in mind that a tall person does not necessarily have a significantly larger head than a short person, and younger people have heads that are larger in proportion to their bodies than those who are fully grown. my previous render on the left is slightly from above, and the camera angle makes it look a little bigger. if theres one thing im really sick of, its looking at stephanie and vicky's undersized heads. perhaps people get used to them, i dont know... but vicky's head is MUCH too small for her body. i scale it up in every one of my renders. take a look at a human and look at the size of their head in relation to their body (keep in mind head sizes do tend to vary)... or look at anatomical drawings or a standard anatomical proportion reference that you learn in most art classes. there is no way someone will have a head smaller than a C cup breast... its just physically impossible. no offense to daz, since they do make awesome products, but their head scaling needs some serious assistance. but if you dont agree, nias head can be scaled down easily with just a turn of a dial. as for makeup MATs, these arent just color balanced bits of the texture or MATs that change the material color to another shade, theyre all unique handpainted shimmery makeups done by Rio. ive pieced all of the makeups together onto under a dozen texture .jpgs, so it doesnt take up that much room. the entire package is just over 11 megs, thats including the clothing and the lace textures, which are as high res as the character texture. cheers, -gabriel
hey, it's ok, don't worry. :) but then maybe it's true. it doesn't matter what the numbers tell, it's just the feeling. her head is just slightly smaller then her waist. if i cover her body from hip to shoulders, then it looks ok, though... hmmm... maybe that's the part that makes confusion. maybe her torso isn't wide enough?
All the makeups have been painted on Nia's texture, no variations of object colors to "shade" the lips- each lipstick has been painted. Ive done the lips so that when using Nia's face texture you can use any of the separate lip texture MATs, or eyeshadow MATs, for mucho versatility. However, these MATs will only work for Nia's texture, BUT all the makeup and eye MATs are still in the same folder with the poses, so you will only have ONE folder in your Pose directory that carries it all.
8 lipstick possibilities, 6 eye shadow possibilities, and 8 eye color possibilities give the user TONS of different makeup variations for Nia's face texture.
Go silver for New Years, try ruby and jade for the holidays, get romantic with reds (Hay Valentines Day is comin up!), go grungy with runny mascara, or try a cleaner gothic look with the thick black liner! All are interchangeable for whichever makeup style you need for your render ;) YAY!
giana - that would be because Nia is Elowen's little sister :) high resolution digital photos from the same source were used for the head texture, but it is redone in a different, more grungy style. nia is what you would call 'heroin chic'.. her body is also redone, and rio's handpainted makeups are always unique. im not going to say that nia is 'much better' than elowen. everyone has their own taste, i suppose, and something i think is better might not echo someone else's thoughts on the matter. however, i constantly strive to do better work, to improve my skills (hey, i learned to model and conform clothing :), and help people get more versatile characters and better renders. so yes, looking back on my work, i see quite a progression - and i apply what ive learned to my new textures and characters... and i try to learn something new every day. "nice eye reflections, too... reminds me kinda of the neat stuff Cimerone did with her pretty Faith character which i absolutely adore... " ...and that would be because im the one that taught regina (cimerone) how i paint my style of highlights :) cheers, -gabriel
Yup! Giana Gabes right, he was ever so helpful in creating Faith's eye texture hi lites. As I was at my wits end! lol And I am sooo glad that you like her that much :) Gabe Nia looks AMAZING! Outstanding and perfect as Elowens lil sis! We all have the "black sheep" of the family :) Happy Holidays to all, Gina
awwh! thanks IceStorm! btw, im always lookin for suggestions, so if you guys have a makeup wishlist youd liek to see in the future, let me know!!! Contact info on my rosity homepage, and in our readmes as well in case ya forget ;) Glad ya'lls diggin Nia! if all goes well she should be in the store today!
Looks great! How 'bout a Vicky version? Or will these textures work on Vicky too? (I'm not at all familiar with the Mil girls...) Coincidentally, the villianess in my movie is named Nia, and this is similar to the look I've tried to get (with not a lot of success, I might add), so that's why I'm wondering about V2 (or 3) compatibility. --Donnie

Nia for the Millennium Girls... comes complete with a full custom body morph, custom head morph and a high-res texture pack with some awesome shimmery makeups handpainted by Rio. With Nia we went for a grungy, kindof 'heroin chic' look, as youll see on the face textures :) Shes a matured, 19 year old, and thats highly evident in the texture and morph. Packaged with her is a conforming lingerie pack with high-res lace textures, a set of starter poses, and a huge variety of lip, eye, eyeshadow and lace texture MATs. she should be up in the RDNA store within the next day for around my standard texture price. Look for a sexy cyberpunk clothing pack for her soon, which should be priced in the < $10 range and include shirts, boots, shorts, skirt, and several props (belt, glasses, etc). Show here with the default body/head texture (no makeup). cheers, and happy holidays to you all, -gabriel
