I just noticed that DAZ is giving Hiro away free.  They have a pack of models for free download at Download.com.  (There are links on DAZ's Hiro product page.)  V3, M3, Aiko, and Hiro are the models in the pack. 

I notice Toon Hiro was released today, too.  I didn't get Toon Aiko, having a lot of toon females already, but I think I will buy Toon Hiro. I'm not much into toons, but you need one every once in awhile.  And there aren't that many toony males around. 

Well I want the next Hiro tweak to turn out like THIS !!

Oh cool!! Thanks Randy for pointing that one out that's great! I've wanted to check him out for some time now So I'm a very happy camper and likely would have missed this if you hadn't said something. Much appreciated! Off to play with my Hiro!

p.s that tweak would be cool wouldn't it ;) lol

The people at VOLK realy are amazing with their creations.

:b_smile:

My brain is just a toy box filled with weird things

Thank you for the heads up!

This is the Download.com link

Funny... I was doing a search for Hiro at Daz3D and suddenly I discovered HiroToon

Daz giving a lot of advertisment to its Girls' releases but nothing to its Boys' ones... mwhahaha

Thanks for the heads-up - I'd been toying with getting Hiro and now I can get the base for free.

Time to think about texturing, morphs, etc...

The Daz forums have had two Hire toon threads going all day.

Truth has no value without backing by unfounded belief.

I know that the base figures for V3 and M3 have been free for sometime, perhaps all of these free releases are due to the fact that new figures will be out soon.

The November issue of 3D World speaks of the imminent realease of V4; with M4 and Girl 2 to follow. These new figures will be "able to benefit from the company's new OptiTex dynamic clothing technology." This technology is able to create clothing that drapes naturally due to it's system based on real-world textile desin technology. " Unlike e frontier's similar Virtual Fashion Basic, released a couple of months ago, OptiTex is said to be capable of creating automatically conforming clothes".

I don't whether OptiTex will be a stand alone product that could create clothes for use in Poser or if it will be a Plugin for Daz Studio. Hopefully it will be the former. 

Daz Studio 4.8 and 4.9beta, Blender 2.78, Sketchup, Poser Pro 2014 Game Dev SR5 on Windows 8 Pro x64. Poser Display Units are inches

Heh...time to save up some doe-ray-me-doe for the new V4and M4 figures. It will be interesting to see what they will come up with over at daz.

The "Stratus McCloud" character for Hiro might be a start on that Dollfie thing. 

Stratus and all the other DAZ original Hiro stuff is 50% off now.

Wow!  The promo pics make it look like a  wax statue!  Kinda creepy looking as well! :scared:  Like he's going to melt or something.  Don't misunderstand...I'd buy him in a heartbeat!  I'm not one to pass up a unique looking character like that.

OMG!!  I just went back to the page and had a better look...IT IS A DOLL!  I thought it was a new morph for Hiro that was a WIP!   Is there a color for "Fool" in the crayon box? :blushing:

Now where can we find the best freebies to go with Hiro? (Besides Poserworld... I'm already looking through their stuff. ) :P

Best Hiro freebies are Adzan's clothes at DAZ Freepository forum. Going through PoserClub.jp may bring some very nice faces and clothes too (school boy uniform, swim trunks). Rendo freestuff has Sarasara2 hair made especially for Hiro. I'd dig through my treasures to list all freebies for Hiro I have but unfortunately I'm not at home, where my rendering machine and all the archives are :( Hope this makes a nice starter though :)

Edit: don't forget about H3-D3 hybrid that comes with Hiro (Hiro's head on David's body). This way you can use David's clothes if you have any - and if not, go and get D3 Imagination Gown at DAZ weekly freebies archive, apart of that silly hat it's a very versatile outfit.

Hey, never turn down free characters..you may never see the offer again..or wait years...;)

I wish I'd said that.. The Staircase Wit

Oh, and while Hiro is now free-free-free, I have been very happy using the Capsces Hittoro morph set on him.  That's commercial though, and I think you get it over at DAZ.

In case you're wondering, this is the FULL Hiro figure. All morphs included. Nothing extra to buy except hair, clothes & maybe a few textures if you want. Best buy is the Hiro Starter pack which is half price until midnight tonight, then it's 30% off for the rest of the sale.

And if you're a Harry Potter fan, Antonio & Jepe's "Daniel" works on him too. Plus, "Stratus McCloud" from Daz is a nearly perfect Draco Malfoy.  ;-)

Thank you randym77 for the info.

 

Warning to the Mac people.... These are exe files and therefore PC versions of the installers.

This is now the only place to get M3,V3,A3, and Hiro for Free,

Yep, M3 is now no longer free at Daz. Hope that means there's gonna be an M4 release soon.

Actually, it turns out M3 and A3 aren't free due to a clerical error. They're werkin' on it.

Nuts! Looks like Fickle was up to her old tricks again. Guess it's gonna be a long, long time before I get me a shiny new boy toy to play with. :-(
