First set of free poses for Dawn on ShareCG now.

:)

Jan, thank you so much!  Works now!  I would never have guessed to look for morph injections for expressions.

:D

Question...where are the expression controls for the face.  Selecting the head does not reveal any options to smile, blink the eyes, or control the brow.  I'm using the base with no add-on morphs.

Downloaded successfully...will start creating free pose sets this evening.

:D

I've set up a pose release thread on the new Hivewire3D forum in the Complimentary Corner at the link below.  Hopefully the information there will provide an organized approach to finding all the poses for specific models.  Log-in is required in order to see the sample images.

Once Dawn is released, new poses created for her will be announced in this thread:

They will also appear most recent first on my ShareCG gallery page, here:

Thanks so much for showing the hand to shoulder pics.  Looks really good from a posing perspective.  Dawn appears to be so far above and beyond models currently available.  As long as the core model bends and functions as correctly as possible, all other embellishments could be added or adjusted according to preference, whether it be sizing, positioning, various add-ons, or textures...which is what would make it unique custom art.   Thanks to the HiveWire team for patiently considering the crucial core issues so that we will all have a great base model upon release.   Really looking forward to the release by the way  :D

Oh my...look at that hand...just what I wanted...this is wonderful.

The shoulder thing...I ran into it this morning, creating an army pose of M4 on the ground, belly down, firing a rifle...but in order to position the hands correctly on the gun, it requires extreme pulling of the shoulders inward...which is the same type of problem as balling up the hand.  The differences in a weight-mapped figure may solve this particular problem.

Again, the hand looks wonderful...thank you so much for posting the pics!

:)

I'm also curious about palm bending...pinky finger to thumb.  This comes up a lot when creating pose sets...that, and tolerance of movement of the shoulders in extreme positions which bring the shoulders and arms inward.  In both the pinky/thumb and shoulder inward bend, it's as if the core needs some way of being as if hinged, the way the hand appears naturally when cupped inward.  This action/appearance may not be possible in a model, but just thought I'd ask, as they are the two problem areas I encounter most often.

Things are looking great by the way.  If Dawn's weight-mapped movement is as good or better than Roxie's, it will be wonderful.  Looking forward to the release.

FREE POSE SETS

I would plan to do poses similar to the Roxie and M4 sets on ShareCG, which would include family and everyday poses both office and home, driving vehicles, riding bikes, motorcycles and horses, a variety of musician poses, and biblical themes. I don't do fashion model or suggestive themes. I use Poser Pro 2014, no DS.

paganeagle2001, since you are making note of requests, I'm hoping for a simple casual outfit for Dawn at the time of release that would be suitable for pose set renders, similar to Roxie's basic clothing, so that I wouldn't be attempting to promote interest in Dawn with pose sets showing her with only a bikini.   Doesn't have to be fancy, just something simple casual so that it would be appropriate for the types of pose sets I'd be creating...like Roxie's sets, in an office setting, driving a car, riding a bike, relaxing in a home setting, and the musician poses, as well as others.   Just thought I'd mention this in advance.

Also, when the male figure is released, it would be nice if it had a beard texture option for the face.

Thanks!

AetherDream, I'd like to be included in your list of support for free poses.  I've been doing pose sets for a good while, available at this ShareCG gallery link:  http://www.sharecg.com/pf/skylab

I'm very excited about what's happening, so it will be a pleasure to participate.

Wonderful news about new figure creation, and will continue watching with great interest.  Hope there will also be a male figure.  I'll be happy to contribute free pose sets to help  promote the figure release.  

This reminds me of how things used to be done, the 3D community working together.  Go for it!
