Having had Dusk SE in my possession since last Thursday and some additional add-ons even more recently, I feel like I'm a little fish swimming with the big fish. But here goes a test render with Dusk SE...

I always set up different body/facial shapes for my characters before really applying much clothing, props, additional textures, etc. My creative Poser style is to make characters that are somewhat realistic but have a caricature/stylized proportions sort of vibe to them. That said, here's a lean, more defined body type and a little bulkier bodybuilder type for Dusk. I made 2 custom morphs to start to get the look I'm after with Dusk. One is a neck morph and the other is a narrow hip morph. Still much work to do to find my style for Dusk, but I am truly enjoying my tinkering and all the help that others have graciously given me.

I marked this with the nudity flag due to the figures wearing just briefs. Just to be cautious.

No such thing as a big or small fish, just one big shoal. I think the aim of the thread is to encourage people to experiment with HiveWire 3D figures as so many people will have them for the first time with the new Poser update. Some of us have had fun with the figures for a long time now but, as with all figures, there are things to learn and many of us have learnt a lot about the HiveWire 3D family so why not pass that information on. Doesn't really matter if you are using Poser or DS one of the figures might be just what someone is looking for, so we are not attempting to trade one figure for another just encouraging others to see if any of the figures are good for them.

 

 

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.
