Mariko is certainly different but not being weight mapped would appeal more to the Poser users that have stuck at an earlier versions.  The fact that she is Japanese would also be an issue for me as a base figure.  I have nothing against Japan or the Japanese and my car for many years has been a Honda that I love but I want my base figure to be a blank canvas.  Of course I want the ethnic morphs as well so that I can have all the ethnic variations but to have a base figure to have such stong ethnic features would, I think, be very limiting.

On the plus side there are some interesting morphs listed such as brows vulcan, tongue forked, Pupil square and Pupil slit vertical.  I would however agree the earlier comment that I would like to see some of these in the promo. 

Without trying to be negative, if Dawn had been launched with this number of morphs perhaps her uptake would have been quicker.  I am sure Dawn will get there but the more morphs on day one the better the chance of hitting the ground running.

 

 

I use Poser 13 on Windows 11 - For Scene set up I use a Geekcom A5 -  Ryzen 9 5900HX, with 64 gig ram and 3 TB  storage, mini PC with final rendering done on normal sized desktop using an AMD Ryzen Threadipper 1950X CPU, Corsair Hydro H100i CPU cooler, 3XS EVGA GTX 1080i SC with 11g Ram, 4 X 16gig Corsair DDR4 Ram and a Corsair RM 100 PSU .   The desktop is in a remote location with rendering done via Queue Manager which gives me a clearer desktop and quieter computer room.
