Just thought about making 2 questions in one post: is there anything like Renderosity but in Japan?? I mean, a japanese website where you can upload images, have people make comments and rate it, have forums, free stuff... etc... a "japanese renderosity" pretty much sums up my question. Second, does anyone know if Yamato ever worked on a V3 version of Tenten?? The asian and all oriental head morphs that the V3 has by default on her head morphs don't come even close to the pretty morphs Yamato always did withe the Millenium Girls and V1. So, if anyone knows of a V3 TenTen, please post.

Question 2: Yes he did but you have to construct her. Go to his site for details.

yeah tenten is the queen ! i really like Yamato's work... if you sum up Yamato, Kozaburo and Maya's work, you really have a strong asiatic Poser "side"... (for free cotnents i mean.. of course there is also BatLAb too) but no, as far as i knw, there is no "central" communauty of asiate websites for poser.. many asiatic poser artists maintain website with various level of communauty and upload capabilities (harpoonvolt, batlab, maya, etc) but nothing as central or as "global" as rosity... but anyway it could be a good idea to make a communauty website dedicated to asiate side/artists of poser world, and link to them too, but ggather a communauty around them

there's a bunch of Japanese sites out there for Poser, but in Japan, they have a program called 'Shade' that works a lot like Poser.. Hang tite..

These are sites I have marked as Japanese (as in very little Roman characters, but still good stuff).. I think Studio Maya is Japanese, but can't prove it. Check the links from these sites, maybe something will show up..good luck from Pakled, the baka yaro..;)

studio maya is japanese.. if you needed a confirmation...

a good start to watch for japanese poser websies is going to studio maya and watch the hotlist/link section...

I first followed the links from Iso's Page (his old site) and discovered some wonderful work. You can still get Date Masamune through those links but much of the neojapan stuff is gone. h-kana has 2 pages at Edogoyomi and some more props in the free section at Expanding Wave. Expanding Wave is sited here in the US (AFAIK), but they are concentrating upon authentic Japanese items. Royloo (over at 3dcommune) was doing Chinese items, and I've seen one or 2 Korean clothing pieces, but that is a vast multicultural area, mostly untouched. Oh, well, I'm glad for what we have been able to find, and encourage others to make the most of their unique cultures, too. The Cambodian temples at RDNA are a good start. Bali and Tibet and Siam are rich and intricate worlds. Japan has the double advantage of the traditional glories of the Edo period and geishas and samurai, as well as the edgy modern world of robots and anime. Carolly

thanks for all the info!! now if I could only find Yamato's website address again... can someone please post the link?

Batlab's Japanese Links list ('Links-J') is just AMAZING. And always up to date. It'll keep you busy for days :o) Covers the entire Japanese Poser community. :] Fish

At the siderbar here at Rosity the main Japanese BBS is linked: Poserfactory http://www.poserfactory.jp/

Popular 3D site like Renderosity may be Studio Momo. About 10,000 people visit daily. They have (time limited) Gallery including Poser. But no Poser forum. They dont sell objects. No free objects. It is more like CGTalk. Probably Poser is minority in Japanese 3D world as you can easily understand.

well, this site, http://mad.zombie.jp/ , also has some interesting links to other japanese sites... thanks for all the info again.
