Livestreams

I think I might do livestreams beginning this Saturday afternoon.

For the first one, I think I'll start with making a simple item in Blender. Not sure what kind of fight prop yet.

Then, in following streams, move onwards to using Substance Painter and then DAZ itself.

I've neve...

Thong 2024 for Genesis 8 Female

Because of some strangeness over at Deviant Art, I can no longer find my original thong, so I decided to make another one.

Something even skimpier. It also has two zones (fabric and trim). As always, the UV layout is attached for further customizations ... if there is enough space.

Power Tower 2024 (Updated)

A simple gym prop. Wish I had some proper dimensions but it looks very much like the reference photo.

It's been a while since I posted things. Things are kind of settling down, though I have to confess a part of it is just being lazy. The days and nights got cut up pretty bad so it was diff...

Olympic Medals 2024 for Genesis 8 (Updated)

So, I thought about a new way of getting around to how things get distorted by changes in character shapes when making this.

It's a posable item with many posable parts. It's a very simple shape, and providing the UV layout for customizations. I quickly used the Paris 2024 texture and it ca...

Summer Sizzle 2024 for Genesis 8 Female

Head to toe outfit, with a bunch of material zones.

Same boots were released last month.

Entrance 2024

Made this for a comic, though I no longer going to use it for that.

I figure others might like to use it.

Screens are configurable.

Simple Headband for Genesis 8 Female

A requested item. Very simple, untextured headband for Genesis 8 Female.

Boxing Trunks 2024 for Genesis 8

Experimenting with tools and brushes in Blender. Made this pair of adjustable boxing trunks. Uses dForce on the legs to make them more realistic in posing.

Made the waistband and trunks more integrated so they can share design flow, but did provide some waistband designs for branding.

August Plans

Nothing really is on my radar in terms of real life commitments for this month (some for late September, though), which kind of allows for a little planning.

I started the month off with a pair of wrestling boots. I had made it part of a new outfit for a female wrestler but figured I can p...

Knee High Boots 2024 for Genesis 8

Made a pair of boots, with a bonus pair of platform soles for the ladies. I think it's one of the better pairs of boots I've made. Seems to bend properly, though I haven't tested with body shapes.

Provided some designs along with the UV layout for customizations. Will allow for text and log...

Entrance Prop

Enjoy.

Tablet 2024

A tablet roughly based on an existing commercial unit. Screen is it's own texture space.

Leather Boots for Genesis 8

Made a pair of boots for Genesis 8, and fits both Male and Females.

Simple black, plus an experimental celtic-inspired set.

Made them each have their own texture space

Cooler

Just a quick item. Made this ages ago for the Rumble Ranch set.

Updated 24 JULY 24

Attached the missing ZIP file.

Barricade 2024

Another barricade, but has cloth draped over it. Wish I had not made the simulation permanent to get variations, though I suppose using a displacement map would add different folds to avoid repitition.

To Avoid Turning my Room Into an Oven...

... I've avoided firing up the 3090 to do anything intense. I noticed that if I try to do anything AI-related the heat just spills out. I stuck a floor fan right in front of it to push the heat out from under the desk but it still heats the room quite quickly. The AC unit really can't keep up,...

Rainbow Mika Heel Outfit

So, I've been asked many times for copies of this, so I finally packed it all up.

I tried to add the Kinley hair morph but I can't see where it can be loaded.

So Hot

Air conditioner isn't working very well at all. I guess I'll ave to save and buy a new one for next summer.

Crowd 2024

Something I've wanted to do for a very long time.

Used AI to generate 100+ different fans and assembled this into a fairly simple family of props.

Comes in two types: four straight set crowd blocks, and three 'curved' crowd blocks. There was four but not sure why DAZ didn't save it p...

... after years.

I just realized I could just paint on designs in Substance Painter, export out the base map and reimport that in as a surface ID texture for masking, instead of what I used to do. And that was toiling in Blender then going nuts trying to get inverted masks right in the correct order.

Patriotic Bikini 2024 for Genesis 8 Female

Posting this early so it can be used before July 4.

Two piece item, comes with five basic designs.

Simple Elbow and Kneepads 2024 for Genesis 8

I made a new set of pads. Made them a bit different from the usual.

For starters, they're designed to work in conjunction with a pair of simple leather boots I'm going to release in the next couple days (I hope). Not been getting the stitching effect I'd like with them.

As for the...

Double Ended Dildo

Was a request.

Uses Iray for transparent effect.

Security Outfit 2024 for Genesis 8 Male

Reworked the referee outfit a bit to come up with this. I think the pants came out way better so this might see this returning to also being a referee outfit. The only problem is that it doesn't share the same UV layout.

Heat Wave

Had to shut machines down, and was gone for a couple days. Got the AC working this morning, but last night was really rough.

I'm one of the few that welcomes winter.

Someone asked for a Pride design for my 2023 boxing gloves. I made the base colour maps. I didn't get around to makin...

Genesis 8 Wrestling Pose Pack #27

Been a while. No product image for this, and still haven't gotten around to reorganizing the moves folder. Later today I'm hoping to copy the directory and fiddle with it and see how it goes.

This one has various pinfalls and one submission (that is in the pinfall folder):

• C...

The 'Genesis 8 Wrestling' Pose Folder

Time we discussed this.

So, right now I created four folders that are rather obvious (01-Basic Posing, 02-Hurt Poses, 03-Pinfalls, 04-Corner Poses).

That helped keep the list down, but it's getting too long to scroll through and I really don't use search. So the obvious thing to do i...

Reebok Stiletto Boxing Boots 2021 for Genesis 8 Female

As I've been going through and cleaning up my Blender and Substance Painter folders, I came across this project that I had forgotten about.

It's basically a boot edit of my Reebok boots from 2021, with a lift and heel.

I changed the UV islands for the sole so that they don't look terr...
