@ethiopia That's not bad by any standard! I'm ashamed to say that I haven't been as dedicated to exercising as I was, and have become kind of lazy since Christmas.
Yeah; the M4 characters probably looked the best out of all of the generations.
It's a pity that some of those PAs never made anything for the later models.
@reinecarola, The weekend is my off time but I'll be pounding at your door on Monday. We'll start with a 10K power walk.
@ethiopia In that case I'll need to fuel up on protein! Lol
@ethiopia Great time! I'm actually jealous, the pollen season of spring has arrived so all my running days are gonna be replaced with rowing machine/weightlifting for a bit. Thanks to you and @eelgoo for the Mike4 recommendation though! I started using daz at the tail end of gen3 when g8 was coming up so I didn't even think to look at him. After a cursory search it looks like there's a good way to go from M4->G3->G8 which I think I'll test out this weekend.
@reinecarola Funny, we posted within minutes of each other twice. Also to add to your picture list I just finished re-watching Marco Polo and they definitely have some guys that cross the handsome territory into beautiful; at least for me.Mahesh Jadu comes to mind
Remy Hii
and a lot of modern depictions of Alcibiades
@sceryx Are you a hayfever sufferer too? It's absolutely horrible; I've suffered seasonal allergies since I was ten or eleven. Those pictures you posted are more of what I'm talking about.
Have you figured out a quick conversion method? I use the GenX plugins and the Legacy UVs, but it's a bit of a hit and miss. The conversion never looks quite right or as well defined as the original M4 figure.
@sceryx and @reinecarola, My wife had (notice 'HAD') terrible seasonal allergies her whole life and as a horticulturalist spent a large part of the year loaded up on drugs. 7 years ago she got a bone marrow transplant to fix her leukemia. Her allergies are now completely gone but she's now allergic to mussels. The transplant surgeon mentioned that they've heard of that sort of thing. My wife says it's a great tradeoff...except for the actual transplant...THAT part wasn't fun.
@ethiopia I've heard of that happening with people who've had transplants, but only in the context of someone saying ''I heard it from a firend who read it online/in a paper, etc'' I never actually had someone say that it happened to them or a family member before. It's certainly interesting. Great for your wife that she can spend time in the garden now without having to be dosed up on antihistamines. I wouldn't miss mussels either; not the tastiest seafood, IMO.
@reinecarola Hah yeah, blessed with the triple threat of pollen, dust, and mold allergies. Used to be bad all year but got the shots as a kid so now its just mostly in the spring. I'm glad I was on the mark with the pictures! I'm kinda sad they canned the show, was quite good and the costume design was excellent!
@ethiopia I'm glad she got through that and is done with the mucus madness!Until I mess with it I hesitate to say it doesn't look too bad since I know all too well where that sentence leads me HAH! The method I was gonna go for was using genx then the riversoft character converter from genesis 3 to 8. Then using shape splitter to save the morph to a G8 base. I looked into that UV and detail problem and interestingly it seems that there was a decent polygon drop from Mike4 to the later G3 and G8. Though I'm not fully read up on what the subdivisions do to bridge that gap. I'll just be googling and headbutting the problem until I get a solution I like!
Then I'll have to do some male focused art I think, the male sections on the discord are sorely lacking.
@sceryx I never got around to watching the show, but it was something I was interested in seeing. Sometimes, I don't settle in to watching something until it's already been running for a season or two. I only started watching Game of Thrones when the second season was almost over, but binged on both seasons, then read the books in the interim. Lol There's few things I hate more than finding a show that I like, being hooked for a couple of seasons, only for it to be cancelled. I loved Exorcist and they cancelled it after two seasons. Same with Camelot; that only ran for one season, as far as I can remember.
My allergies are just starting up now, still not too bad, just a bit sneezy, still. They usually continue until late September.
Good luck with the conversion; the world needs more male focused art. As it stands, it's a boobfest out there Lol
I like this guy. Maybe mix him with somebody
https://www.daz3d.com/wolfgang-81@D0gg0d I actually like the shape of his face and the bone structure. Yeah, he could work with some adjustments.
This person has some nice looking male characters. You might find some of them around here. Too tired to have a look, but this is the vendor's page. Males
@Antharaes Thanks! I'll check it out. 🙂
