totally bad... but if you bought it.. totally fun!
I have done that numerous times. Not to fuck with the logistics but because it was long since due to post that... 'shit'.
IE: I did buy it though!
Stop using smoothing mod.. I know you can do those close ups without it. If not I can help.
Div, ur great.
P.s. I'm drun... hi. But really. Don't use smoothing modifier on a figure. I only told that one person because doing thick figures is hard.
Get into blender or Zbrush. No joke.
This isn't bad. Div brought me here. I'm watching that dude or lady. Bright future.. but still @kerwidwen I like ur work.
I love you all.. just kidding.
Div.. ur too kind. I think you are good at natural art too. Bet? @diviniren Don't even deny it.
<strike>Wait.. I would have placed? Let's start this voting over!</strike> LOL HOW DO YOU STRIKE OUT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Congrats to best of show @spats. That's two out of three competitions on winning 'Best of Show'. Oops, that was EWLO that got my best of in the halloween contest. My bad. Still great job here.
I had a feeling you were going to win. Everything about your picture was perfect. No joke.
Congrats to @diviniren for getting 1st on your very first ZoneGFX comtest.
Also congrats to... I'm to lazy to mention anyone else. 😛
Thanks @lapucelle and get well soon! Thanks to all those that contributed, without you this contest couldn't happen. Also thanks to @Ethiopia for idealizing the contests theme. Hopefully Sci-fi was the genre you thought best matched the theme. LMAO 😀 😀 😀

Posted wrong version, again.
If I win I don't want points but I wouldn't mind the front page. I'll add ZoneGFX to renders to represent.
Great render @diviniren plus several other new entries. To lazy to ping all ur names though. 😀

Nevermind.. I think I'll go with this version instead. I'll clean him up in Zbrush and then post the link for the morph. Need to ready myself for work tomorrow, so probably not today.
I call him not Dirk the Daring but
Dirk the Cold Blooded Assassin:
Okay. I'm just going to drop this off here for now. It's a full body Dirk the Daring morph. I learned a few new tricks in Zbrush and figured out how to combine all morphs. Now I see why all those samey looking character morphs 'sculpted in zbrush' look like any other morph you see sold on those sites.. They didn't sculpt s**t, they just ran it through zbrush and combine a bunch of different morphs from other characters into a single dial and package. I have never used zbrush before starting my work on the dragon. So now that I learned a little more I hope to apply that back and forth between the Dragon's Lair characters until I feel they are good enough. Then I will share them with the community.
ANYWAY, I did sculpt this, mostly 😉 , but it isn't perfect. Let me know what you think, what could be changed or fixed or whatever. I focused mainly on the face and just made sure the body was going to fit within the outfit.
(Oh, I did accidently have a expression applied at one time and totally fucked up the symmetry, then saved and quite. SO, yeah, I can't or don't know how to fix that and I'm to lazy to start over)
I will get around to converting the Dirk outfit probably this weekend.

Oh, right, the morph: https://mega.nz/file/uYFxxZLY#Ki3wwCCNA06AM0U1QeLWJK2P-_P7t-liXtY1Y08-fbM
I'll respond to everyone's messages later. Though I think it's mostly general discussions stuff about Frank's trolling, adelasia's tiredness, Spats love for art and animation and adoration for cat wrangling.
THANK YOU mxyzptlk. 😀
@adelasia I left because you left.. so you left because I left? Time Paradox!
Honestly I left because I said in enjoyify's contest that would be my first and last competitions. I don't like losing, if I don't enter, I can't lose. 😛
@spats Thanks for all the suggestions. I already have her outfit though.. well that portion of it. I'll post images later. I'm having some issues with posting images in postimage later and also I have another daz instance open right now. It is this outfit: https://zonegfx.com/dare-converted-from-g3f-for-genesis-8-females/ I posted the wrong one earlier by the same creator.Don't worry. I plan to finish this trio of characters, at least them. Again, maybe Eve too from DL2.
I DON'T PLAN ON ANIMATING IT. I had hard enough time with making F'n christmas lights light up. 😀
If you really want to speed up this process, you could help me find some hairs that will match up with Daphne's. I don't expect it to be a single hair prop so don't worry about that.
Anyway, thanks again everyone.

Dirk the Daring:
Dirk the Daring:
So last night I was searching and searching for for reference material for Dragon's Lair. I knew there were a lot of 3d print models for Dirk but they were all horribly made. Then I found this artstation 3d render and it was damn near perfect. Unfortunately it wasn't for sale or download BUT.. someone got a hold of that model and boned it and everything then put it on a site: Can't post?
It used a plug-in that would be required to use the animations (which in turn caused anyone without the plug-in to get a blob of geometry). Well I didn't much care about the animations or the rigging because I needed it for Daz studio so I deleted all their animations and boning and luckily the original figure was reborn!!! 🙂
I exported it out of MAYA and geometry edited out the figure and created several pieces out of all the clothing. Then I used their Dirk likeness and tried to recreate it best I could without the Gen 8 characters face deforming. This is what I came up with. Now I need to take that mesh and run it through Marvelous designer. Hoping for the best it should look and work pretty well as a gen 8 conforming outfit.
Not sure if this Dirk character morph I've created is the final iteration but I think it looks decent enough.
What do you guys think?
