I can dredge an old one up or two... I do want to transfer a few bits of this char ("cold front" and "warm front" skins) to Genesis 8, though:

One more (and prolly a bit more SFW):

An Aiko 4 character I've been working on

Same character but with a smaller face.

A4 with a second skin body suit that I created for my comic. I modeled the helmet, a blaster and boots for her so far. I also created her star fighter and the enemy ship. Still working out a bunch of details.

She looks wondrous! I hold back superb for the entire thing. Everything looks like an original rokket design and that's a good thing.

Waiting to add the Superb tag, old friend...

Check your comic thread!

I'll be happy when I get my second monitor. This is Aiko 3 testing out some new ideas

Here, kitty kitty!

I like the lights.

I agree. Very nice use of shadows and foreshadowing. Everyone would be pleased just seeing Kitty but it looks like she is sitting on something quite deadly. Nice!!

A4 killed anything I felt for the Aiko line.

A4 killed anything I felt for the Aiko line.

A4 took a different path than Aiko 3. Instead of trying to follow the look of 2d anime and Manga. It started to take more of a look that you would find in Japanese movie scenes like Final Fantasy Advent Children. I don't mind since it makes it easier to create that look. I just switch between the two. The new Genesis 3 series does the same thing but it offers more variety in both areas.

A3 with Thorne's Sydni morph, on -AppleJack-'s Treehouse 2 which comes with P11.2 The skirt and shawl are Fabiana's Hidden Winds set. Dixie hair by Lady Littlefox.

I've made Superfly-compatible material modifications to Treehouse 2, and intend to release it as a freebie.

That's a huge glass. Aiko 3 is about to get her drink on.

It must have been a very stressful day.

Well, yeah. You know what they say... Go big or go home! That's a good British half pint of port in there, I'd guess. A wedge of Stilton and some good salty crackers, a few black olives and she'll be farting like a champion. So much for "Hidden Winds".

A3 is one of my favourite old school models but...

I'd love to be able to add some more morphs, such as the ones from V3, and get a weightmapped version. Morph wise, I haven't yet found a way to incorporate 'em and I have absolutely no skill when it comes to weight mapping.

Unfortunately, A3 is based on the Stephanie 3 Petite mesh rather than V3.

True, but... S3 is derived from V3.

Aiko 1 was the real oddball being derived from Stephanie Petite which, in turn, was derived from Michael 1 and 2. That meant Aiko could not use Vickie's textures, but could use Mike's.

Sincerely,

Bill

Erm, nope. Derived from Stephanie, not Stephanie Petite. Slip of the fingers, William, old chap?

"Erm, nope. Derived from Stephanie, not Stephanie Petite. Slip of the fingers, William, old chap?"

Probably... So, Stephie hadn't gone on her weight loss program yet? ;-)

Point being, the first Aiko could use mike's texture which produced some rather, uh, "interesting" results, especially if the texture depicted copious amounts of body hair. then again, one could do the same thing with the Mil' 3 figures. Actually, I guess the real point is that Aiko's texture resources were rather limited given it could not use the Vickie maps.

Bill

Aye, Bill. Steph Petite is S3/Steph 3, one of the Generation 3/Unimesh things, along with M3, V3, A3, H3 and so on.

There's a remapping for the original Steph kicking around which allows the model to take V1/V2 textures. I remapped mine and kept it as a separate version so I have the option, should the fancy take me. That said, bashing out a texture for the old gal ain't hard; mind you, I cut my vendor teeth making texture sets, way back before merchant resource packs were a thing (and killed the market but that's another story).

Addendum: Sitemail your email addy and I'll export the UVs if you need 'em.

Remaps Stephanie 1 to take Victoria 1 or 2 textures Requires: Stephanie 1, free UVMapper 0.25e for pc or UVMapper Pro for mac... the demo may do the job :)

Hi everybody, i did not read the whole thread, so if there is already an answer to my following question, please give me a hint where to find it. I'm a bit late to the party, i guess. Despite the fact that i'm using Poser since Version 4.5, i never ever touched on the Aiko Figure. I recendly build up my Runtime Folder System, realizing that i had picked up more stuff for A3 as i had expected. So i started playing with A3 in the new Poser 11.2, but i was stopped by several issues i ran into and now i'm here to seek for a helping hand. I load the A3 Figure into the scene, apply all the A3 Morphs for Head and Body, like i was us to do with V3 or M3. Then i was trying to pose the Figure and thats does not working very well. I killed the IK on the Figure and move her leg, the knee stays putt and the mesh is broken. I changed the Skin Methode but that did not changed anything. If i apply a character morph, the Armes are distordet as well, right from the moment i applyed the morph. What i have done wrong, is this happend to some of you during a session with A3? Is there an update for the figure to correct this issues? Any help will be appreciated.

I don't know how, but as soon as i posted my request for help, i opend up poser and worked with A3 again... and it worked! I'm surprised.

That's a D|S iRay render.

I was just wondering about that, since this thread is in the Poser forum does that mean I shouldn't be posting D|S renders here?

This isn't my thread. I'm not the original poster (OP). I am a staunch supporter of Poser and I say....

POST AWAY! What fun is it to make renders and art and fun if you can't share it? The thread title says Everything Aiko. Not "Everything Aiko only used in Poser." So ethin, Post more Aiko.

Before I forget and edit time runs out. That is a truly cute render. Nicely done.

A bit of workflow for coming up with a new look and outfit for my OC Sherbet.

Tink, a unicorn and Christmas! What could be cooler than that! Well done and thanks again for all that you contribute to the Poser community.

Did anyone make a weight mapped version of A3? I like the way the model looks but the bending is as good as any of the standard 3 version models, ie, bleedin' awful. I'd use the thing a lot more if it could bend better.

Thanks, her original texture color palette was reminiscent of Rainbow Sherbet, hence her name. She's named after a frozen dessert and she loves it.

There is A3 for genesis, but you can also use some quick tricks to fix A3's flat thighs when bending. Most of the times I can actually get it to where the thighs are round and not flat, It just depends on how deep the bend is. It doesn't require any morph brushes or anything like that which is good.. This is A3 sitting in a post that usually causes the thigh to go flat. You can kind of see the flat thigh issue on the left leg. Normally both thighs would be flat.

Here is a different view of the same pose from the other side so you can see a deeper bend. I didn't use any special morphs or adjustments on this one. I just used Bend, Side to Side, and Twist of different parts of the legs. It took maybe a 30 - 60 seconds to correct the bend in the legs.

Similar pose here

Thanks for the advice, FW. Not completely ideal but at least a workaround. Much appreciated.

Well its a new year, maybe time to post some more character wips. Where to start, how 'bout an albino goblin priestess and a pissy shoulder devil.
