Quote - > Quote - Where can I find pics of the first 2 Miki characters? I really want to see this for myself. I have never owned them. I have only ever had the stuff that was included in Poser 8, and a few freebies.
Miki 1 is no longer available. Miki 2 is still at Content Paradise and is only 19.99 right now. A bargain as figures go ;). You can find her here, however the content images there are not very flattering..lol.
There are still lots of clothes and characters there for Miki 2 as well. You can also find a few nice things for her at Runtime DNA.
I don't like her face nearly as much as Miki 1's face. And Miki 2's expressions weren't as good as the first Miki either. But the first Miki suffered from a great deal of rigging problems that Miki 2 seems to have solved. If not for that I'd still be using Miki 1. She was my favorite. I did a portrait of her way back when here.
I was not impressed at all with Miki 3. Not even a little bit. And I normally take to new figures too. ;)

Yeah, Miki1 had the greatest smile I'd ever seen on a Poser character, it's a shame the was very wonky with bending. Though in defense for Miki2's face, she could be morphed into something very un-Miki-like and she had a lot of third party support from the Hair Conversion System to Texture Converter and that allowed me to really styilize her into something I thought was really great like this

I just hope that Miki4 (poor Ms. Miki3) gets more third party support so textures can be converted to her. It would bring on a giant wave of possabilities and extend her digital life that much more.
