It's VERY cool looking.... I don't suppose it's compatible with any of the existing models (Vic, Mike, Steph, etc.) If not... I probably won't be interested since there wouldn't be alot of accessories for it. Still... it looks great and I wish you luck!

I love the body shape and the head is great too. Very impatiently waiting for this.It whould be great if this model had at least the same UV map with Victoria-Steph or Judy since the body shape is quite different and sharing clothes is difficult. Realy great job.well done. I'm waiting...

Your characters look terrific! But I have to agree, if you want serious sales, it would be best if there was some level of compatability with Vicky/Steph, whether in UV Mapping, or morphs to fit the outfits to those characters.

I have to agree with Shogakusha. If you make the outfit, in the second picture, fit Vicky and Stephanie, then you will have a hot seller on your hands.

As pointed out by others you should consider creating clothing set and props for DAZ 3D Millennium Figures since they are the most used and supported human models in the Poser community. There are a lot of ultra realistic textures for them too. Also the upgrade for their female figure Victoria should hopefully be released shortly and a lot of users will probably upgrade. If the rumours are true it will have a completely new mesh, more detailed and grouped in a different way. This mean that the existing clothing sets could not fit the new figure and there will be a huge request for quality add on. Whatever you decide I'm excited to see that you are going to start making your creations available as I have followed your work on the LW forum for a long time (welcome back BTW). I recently started to learn LW too and I'm searching for a good training course here in Italy and your work is always an inspiration. Have you ever thought of writing down some in depth tutorials while creating your models? Most of the time the user manuals just give basic info on how the tools work, but it is more useful to actually see how advanced users approach a problem or develop a mesh. The tutorials on Newtek site are great too, but you can't get enough :) Keep on the great work!

No problem :) Any chance of a 3/4 head and shoulders shot of the first figure? Interesting face on the second by the way. I think most people have the Daz figures, (I do) so from the point of view of sales that might be a good idea, but if you're selling new characters, I'd do clothing for them first. You'll be able to gauge demand by how well the originals sell, if everyone who bought your new character buys the clothing too, it's a fair bet that people will buy it for vick, but if nobody buys it, why bother? Throw a few images into the galleries, you'll get comments if it's any good, if I can get comments, anyone can :) later jb
