Quote - The biggest problem that Miki 1 and 2 had were the joints.  The elbows and knees still seem to bend in a bulbous, unnatural fashion.  This was my biggest problem with Miki 1+2.  You could use the face, but if you put them in a short sleeved shirt or a dress, they looked terrible when they did anything except stand still.

 

 

Miki 3.0 seems to have the same problem.  It's pretty evident in the render that Synthmonkey did that I'm linking here.  Miki 3.0's knee is elongated, totally distorted, and looks completely unnatural.  Seems like the same problems Miki 1+2 had...

That sure is an extreme knee bend. I wanted to show how the crease folds. I've a hunch that most rigged charcaters have weaknesses in the knee with that extreme an angle.

A little touch of the morph brush would help to tuck in the calf as well and soften that top bulge. But I think in most images the knees never get that bent.

I browsed through your gallery for reference (cool images btw - you might want to try some IDL for richer shadows) and found most of the sci-fi art you've created used mostly the Daz figures with fairly straight knees and partially bent elbows.

I think the Miki 3 figure with some converted clothing via wardrobe wizard would work well for you.

That's kinda what she said.  Sure enough, I encounter a nice girl and piss her off immediately.  :D 

Yes, I see the shoulder crease.  Probably user error on my part.

 

 

One of things I found with posing the Miki 3 shoulder was to be sure to use a mix of the collar and shoulder to get the bend right and minimize creasing. Once I got the hand in place, I'd lock on IK for that hand, then do a little dial tweaking on the collar and shoulder to soften the shoulder area even more. What's nice about locking on IK is that you can experiment with all the arm parameters to polish the look and position.

One of the funny things that hit me last weekend - I was checking out a thread on the Daz forum about their new V5 figure ideas, and someone posted an image from a 3D character artist that showed a pose they'd love to see a Poser figure acheive. I took that as a little bit of a challenge.

I wasn't able to recreate the pose 100% but got very close. It's the first image in the thread on RDNA in the link.

I can't say for sure - but I've heard that is very soon.

 

O.O oooooo. do u know if their going to reliease morph packs for her?

Not sure if I know what you mean by morph pack. There are a bunch of morphs that I've been using with the Miki 3 in those linked renderings. Like pregnant, breast controls, body builder, voluptuous and genitalia settings. The head is full of morphs.
