I've decided to branch out (and it's bloody about time!) and explore the Aiko line. All the images I saw on Pixiv have nothing to do with this decision *wink, wink*. I know that Aiko 4 is based on Vicky Four, but she's followed by a plethora of Aikos from 5 to 19. Apparently Aiko 7 is for Genesis 3, but what about the others? If I'm going to use just one, which has the most support?
Thanks bunches for clearing the fog.
E.November 4, 2017 at 11:55 am #382084Okay let's see!
The firgure range:
Aiko 3 is a stand alone figure.
Aiko 4 is indeed based upon V4.
Aiko 5 is for Genesis/Victoria 5.
Aiko 6 is for Genesis 2.
Aiko 7 is for Genesis 3.
Aiko 8 through 18 do not exist.
Aiko 19 is a more adult morph for Aiko 3 (19 yrs old).Support:
Aiko 3
She had a lot of stuff in her day but a lot of it is hard to find now.
Aiko 4
Shares everything that V4 can use so it's a pretty large back catalogue.
Aiko 5
She has her own clothing etc, but can utilize G2 and V4 items.
Aiko 6
Also has her own stuff, but can utilize Genesis and V4 items.
Aiko 7 really shines.
With autofit and the right packs* you can use all of the above figures clothing etc.Must have items!

November 4, 2017 at 1:00 pm #382167You are not going to get better & more informative advice than that! 😉
November 4, 2017 at 3:06 pm #382255Jeez Tomsk!, that's almost a book and more than I had hoped for...even links.
It looks like Aiko 4 and 7 will be my chosen weapons of filth and debauchery.
Thanks bunches!
E.November 4, 2017 at 4:37 pm #382328You're more than welcome my friend 🙂
November 4, 2017 at 6:09 pm #382435Tomsk, Daz Studio should recruit you to manage their forums !
About filth and debauchery, Aiko is supposed to be anime so someone is going down the hentai path....November 4, 2017 at 6:10 pm #382437Lol on both accounts 😀
November 4, 2017 at 6:22 pm #382447I hope @not-hunter has enough Tentacle props... :/
November 4, 2017 at 6:31 pm #382468@EvilMonkey,
So you've seen my runtimes then. The Japanese have an 'interesting' culture in many ways and I find their porn to be especially intriguing. I've got several live (as opposed to the cartoon stuff) tentacle films and I've wondered why an alien creature would be sexually aroused by a human female. Wouldn't they be turned on by their own kind? Doesn't make sense to me.November 4, 2017 at 6:44 pm #382478@not-hunter, I think because Japan is traditionally a fishing nation. Most of the cities are along the coastline and seafood is varied and plentiful. And obviously tentacles are phallic AF.
But aliens being turned on by their own kind and not our regular sexy human women??!! What kind of porn are you wanting them to make?!
November 4, 2017 at 6:49 pm #382488Probably Urotsukidōji !
November 4, 2017 at 7:54 pm #382589Wow, that post is really instructive. Thank a lot Tomsk.
All the link lead me to think you recommand mostly to use Genesis 3 and use morph converter pack to adapt olders version of Aiko to this base model. Which left me with a question:
I'm pretty new to daz and i started using it just to do basic little render of simple character. No big scene building, lighting, interaction or big stuff.
I decided to choose and stick for now with Genesis 2 because i found G2 had the most characters's style i wanted to use with characters like Girl 6, Aiko, Keiko and Callie mostly. (and all their sub characters.)
I know the Girl and Aiko have version of them for Genesis 3, but i find their shape going to much closer to realistic proportion. I like to do semi-realistic/toon like character.And with morph converter like "Victoria 4 for Genesis 2 Female" and "Genesis 3 Female for Genesis 2 Female(s)", i get to use and adapt pretty much everything those two generation has for clothing for my G2 characters. (And i must say, G2 has also really a great librairy of beautifull clothing.)
So right now, i'm pretty happy with what i can do. But with knowing all that, i am wondering...am i passing on something for not using Genesis 3 ?
Style of characters aside, what does Genesis 3 has or can do that Genesis 2 doesn't have or cannot do ?November 4, 2017 at 8:06 pm #382594Hey,
I'm also pretty new to Studio and Poser, and with the bit of experience I have, I learn that there is nothing wrong with using all of the genesis, including the victoria/micheal 4.
You can even download the genesis 3 female and genesis 8 female morph at sharecg for free.

November 5, 2017 at 12:25 pm #383280@checkit1414 Heya!
I myself prefer to use Genesis 2 primarily though I do use the other figures, just not as much.
As far as I know the main difference between Genesis 2 and 3 is the rigging. Genesis 3 handles poses easier and you can get slightly more realistic poses that way, expressions too apparently.
You can use the Genesis 3 poses with Genesis 2 figures (Females) with the help of a little convertor! You can find it in my following thread, just scroll down a little.
Instructions on it's use are included.Tomsk's Freebies!
