Quote - I recall RoyLoo did come awesome historical Chinese commercial products as well, in the early days.  Most were for Victoria and Michael 1 and 2 from DAZ3D.  Some years ago, they were sold at the now-defunct 3Dcommune.

The freebie historical items are now available at his new Kacha3D website.  I hope very much he'll make more of historical costumes and props sometime again.

I saw in the forums at his site a comment about some ideas he was working on for future releases for the historical Chinese line for V4/A4 and M4/H4.  Should be top notch, can't wait to see some W.I.Ps in the hopeful near future.

So, it's not really free if we have to spend 5 dollars minimum to get it.  Wow, at least at DAZ when they put an item of the week for free up, it's actually free.  Don't get me wrong, it's a great item for $5, but, it's not free.  Free would mean it's the only item in your cart when you check out with nothing else in the cart.

It should be called "$5 dollar deal of the day"

i missed it by 4 - count 'em, four - hours.....

Don't feel too bad, they were all sold out in less then 5 minutes...they were limited in number. 

I had mine ripped out of my shopping cart.  I put it in the basket and went to do a last scan to see if there was anything I really really wanted and when I went back to purchase, it said item not available.  I stupidly thought that if you put something in your basket it would lock it to you for the duration that you were on the site.  WRONG!  I know better now and will purchase instantly if I get lucky next month.

Quote - I had to laugh when I heard that on the news... The economy is depressed because their "customers" are depressed and are not buying their fix. Heck, no! There are more important things than a few sex DVD, like food,  clothings, rent/ mortgage, etc. Sex DVDs, in my opinion are luxuries, net necessities.

Don't remember when I ever laughed that hard at the news... :lol:

Totally agree with you on that, besides, anyone with brains and the internet can find it free anyway.

cough NO!  I don't search for porn! cough  I'm too busy downloading freebies for Poser. :woot:

Well, If the money I'm expecting comes in on time, I'm going to be totally selfish, because I've had a really rough year.  I'm going to grab me some DVDs I've been wanting, a few games for my PS3 and treat myself to a steak dinner...after I wipe a few debts out first.  I may be crazy, but, I'm not insane!!  hahaha :b_grin:

Oh good, but, not good...I thought it was my computer for a sec.  I'm not getting into DAZ at all today.  CP loads up fine, as does all the others.

The one time DAZ did load up, everything was gigantic and way out of it's usual layout.

Could be that Michael4 is cyber attacking because everyone is back to creating for V4 and he STILL doesn't even have his basic underwear set yet!!!! :cursing:

It's back now, I didn't see it in the store until about 5 mins ago.  It's called "French Red Wine"

Has some very elegant poses, and a few "drunk a**" poses as well.  Totally wishlisted!! :thumbupboth:

That is so wicked looking!  I snatched that the second I saw it in the free area.  What texture did you use, it looks so perfect, and the eyes are incredible looking as well.

Thank you for sharing this. :thumbupboth:

Poser version, larger version is here...

I have both and love them.  The male was done in Vue.  The large version is here... [ http://stevieg007.deviantart.com/art/Studio-Render-Quentin-Test-80701464](http://stevieg007.deviantart.com/art/Studio-Render-Quentin-Test-80701464)

I know this question has probably been asked before, but, will running a runtime from an exteranl drive add any noticable time to the workflow?  I thought about doing this, but, have never had the chance to try it.  Now that my runtime is pushing 200 gigs, that would free up a lot of space on my main computer drive! :blink:

Thanks for all the replies everyone, I think I can track down some pose sets now.

But to Realmling, I had to reply because of the reson I was asking about the poses (cause it made me laugh when I tried them)...

I did use  M3/V3 poses at first, and for close ups they work fine, but, for full body shots, the male/female poses are too funny and bizarre because 9 times out of 10, the female is on tip toe and usually one leg bent back at the knee.  Poor M3 and David just don't look butch when they do that! :woot:  Yeah, you can tweak them, but, when you flatten the feet with the tip toe stance, it throws both bodies off and makes more work then needed.

And no, not porn poses...just a few "more then friends" stances (with clothes)

Quote - One of the PITA with making good looking shoes for lot of the figuresare their clunky feet.

What I do with the shoes is make the model so the shoe look good, and then turn off the toes and the foot. You get much better looking shoes that way.

Human foot bends and squishes inside a shoe much moe then on Poser figures.

When one tries to model around this clunky foot, shoes don't look all that realistic or poroportionate, or cute.

Ah!!  See, that's a good way!!  I know I wouldn't have a problem, and I don't think many others would either, with turning the foot and toes off to get an awesome shoe or boot for the armors.  You just have to remember to pose the feet before you turn them off.

And the best example to show how good it would work is the Super Funky Suit for V4 by Powerage.  Ya gotta turn her foot and toes off to get the awesome boots to work.  I would gladly start purchasing again if the creators would take this route.

Ok, I'm calm again. :tt2: But you have to admit, that's a great solution from Connie.

Great thread...I was actually on my way to the forums to ask the exact same question.  I've stopped buying any type of "fantasy" clothing because in the past few months they, like you said, have only bare feet, exposed toes or exposed heels and toes.  I guess I wouldn't whine so much if Vic's toes didn't look like fingers, and yes, I have the toe shortening morph.

Actually it goes a bit more then that, about 4 months ago a really awesome armor set came up in the store that was mind blowing until you caught the promo pics showing it didn't cover the feet ***or ***the boobs!!  It covered every inch of her body except the feet and the breasts!   That was a bit much for me.

I'm beginning to think that it's too difficult for some artists to make foot wear that covers the feet completely, but, that's just my opinion.  I realize it's fantasy and everyone has an ideal design, but, at least give the users an option to cover the toes...how much more difficult would it be to have both semi foot covering and total foot covering as an option for the armors??  That would make them fly into my cart faster then they appear in the store.

I do stand corrected, I did make an exception for Aery Soul's Classic Fantasy, even though it has no foot coverings, I love the liquid metal look of the outfit.  My only wish would be she releases an expansion pack that has a necklace and design for the stomach.
