I think it's unfair to write-off Dawn before even trying her out.

Yes, most of the buzz is coming from Poser & V4 users, and I can understand why they're doing flips & twists at the prospect of a smoothly fuctioning figure that does not require DSON complications.

Even so, the brutal truth is that Victoria 6 is the new standard in DAZ Studio (assuming DSON is a no-go for most Poser users).  It's all very well comparing Dawn to V4 and being "amazed" - but it's a much harder sell when comparing to V6 - Dawn certainly doesn't look bad, but doesn't yet appear to offer anything that V6 doesn't already offer.

But having said that, there's nothing to lose in giving Dawn a try as she'll initially be free anyway.

Preview & WIP renders will never tell us the whole story.  It's only when we've got Dawn and V6 side-by-side that we can compare the merits of each.  Then it's a case of adopting which products will best suit our individual needs and preferences.
