V4 is not the only model out there for Poser.. Ever tried making something for Dawn? The interest for her is growing, actually

No V4 is not the only model for Poser, but the most viable one.

Yes I did create for Dawn, I've actually created for most figures (except Scarlet) in the almost 15 years I've been doing this (including commissions for CP for Miki and Sydney). Not much for Dawn left in my store as they went through clearance. Despite that, I have been keeping an eye on Dawn but have yet to feel that she is the next "go to girl" for Poser. When I don't see much coming out for her offered by her own creators it doesn't garner a lot of faith in the model. When said creators worked with V4 there was a lot more support on their end, be that staff created outfits or commissioned/buyouts. I don't see that support for Dawn and if they don't see a value in that it doesn't encourage vendors either. There are a few things for her I've considered, and I haven't ruled her out yet, but I'm not currently compelled to create products for her as they have not paid off for me in the past (and from what other vendors discuss it didn't pay off for others either). I've considered a few items for her, but have not really been inspired to do so yet.

For example at Hivewire there are 189 clothing items for Dawn in about a year and a half, 42 of those are bundle/stack products which makes them redundant listings. Of those only 6 are Hivewire products. Yes there are those by their exclusive staff/vendors, however if the company itself isn't supporting Dawn beyond 6 products I'm not sure how much interest there is, not enough for Hivewire to create more themselves, or commission or do buyouts. After all these are the same people that made DAZ what it is today. They have the same marketing staff and they know how to be successful. I actually know and like most of their current staff and have worked well with them in the past, I'd love to see them succeed with Dawn, you have no idea how much I wanted to see that.

There are some beautiful dynamic outfits for Dawn that I personally adore but again, it's not Hivewire items, the lack of which is my concern regarding Dawn.
