  • WOW! I really love Alexandrea.  Here is a image of the Kylie character for Alex. She is amazing.

    Thanks a lot, Divamakeup and ANGELREAPER1972.

     

  • Well, got the Pro Bundle. Fine deal with the three free products although selection was limited since I’m a notorious bundle buyer. At least I could get those Glamour and Waitress bundles for G3 I had on my wish list for ages.

    Regarding PA discount I might try to do a pose pack, probably all I could come up with, if ever ;-)

    Her head and face seems to be mature, at least in the base figure, but her body could belong to any of the rest of the gen 8 female lineup and it doesn't seem to match.  Its like the age, stops at her face. Clothing looks nice, but could belong in any bundle.  I get a Jamie Lee Curtis vibe from her.

    I know females of her age with a similar figure; granted I haven't seen them wearing as little, but ageing doesn't mean putting on lots of weight, so everything sags.

    ... And if a person has maintained their weight, kept out of the sun, and not smoked, there will be much less damage (and sagging).

    And even with a little weight gain in later life, if one has been fit and healthy and worked out some, then having trained muscles helps people to keep in shape. 

    Indeed.

    Yeah, her body seems young but if you need her to look a little older >> just add or subtract weight using morphs package. If that is not enough just fire up your favorite modeling program and add morphs yourself. What would have really sold this is a wrinkle texture and a 2nd skin liver spots. We need this for both G8 male and females.

    Ageing doesn't mean you put on weight, only that it is easier to do so.

    I'm in love with Alexandra 8! What bundles can you get for free with her? I can't seem to find that information anywhere.

    They need to put all of the 3 affiliated products in their cart even if PC+ member to get the discount beyond a minor one from the $66 & change price.

    Some carts were posted by PAs. They get a higher discount on Daz Originals. That has caused confusion for some people trying to see if they are getting the best price.

    I guess I missed that extra +30 because I was a day late then. Hard to know when to shop sometimes. For some characters I've learned that it earns to wait because there might be an 'orange banner' and the price might drop to 25%, but this time I imagine I should've shopped earlier instead.

    I couldn't pass up a great character AND the huge discounts. I got three Pro Bundles for free. It cost me a LOT, especially on the day before Valentine's Day (seriously, who thought that would be good time for a huge expense? - well, it worked). But a lot cheaper than buying pro-bundles otherwise. I think overall it was like 90% off, including the free bundles, so I guess that was including my PC+ discount.

    Warrior Queen.

    Oddly enough, using the dForce Warrior Queen outfit and the Warrior Queen poses.

    Finally worked it all out.  First I had to do a bundle with items in today's sale in order to get the Gift card.  THAT order ended up being a $201.19 monster that included three "WHICH WILL BE YOU VALENTINE items, 4 PC+ items with an additional 40% discount off the regular PC+ price, and three PA items at 64% off, and a $165.00 gift card discounted by 20%.. oh, and with my PC+ PA $6;00 off coupon on top of everything else. 

    Then the BIG order, which combined the discounts for the Alexandra bundle promo with the new PC+ promo, the PC+ freebie, Fast Grab, and the We heart DAZ girls promo, all charged on the GC I just bought to get effectively another 20% off and still leaving me with $45.00 still on my card.   Here's the list of items from the second order:

    Megah and Swimsuit for Genesis 3 and 8 Female

    HP Luthril for Genesis 8 Female(s)

    Alexandra 8 Pro Bundle

    FWSA Helena HD for Alexandra 8

    Kylie for Alexandra 8

    Rosa for Alexandra 8 and Genesis 8 Female

    Missy for Teen Josie 8

    Centaur 7 Male Pro Bundle

    Genevieve 7 Pro Bundle

    Lovable Nerds Bundle

    Ron's Broken Glass

    Ron's Sci-Fi Custom Shapes Bundle

    School Lunch Props

    Fabric Gazebo

    POI - Bus Stop 1

    Not QUITE as big a haul as it could be, as I'd already had a few items in each of the DAZ bundles, but more than enough to have me cackling in anticipation to render.  Whee.

    The only character I've tried so far is FWSA Edith. I'm really pleased with her. I'm normally not that thrilled with the bundled characters, but I really like Edith. The Louise Hair is nice, too. I recolored it here with the OOT Iray Hair Pair shaders from Rendo. She is wearing the new Shirt Dress with one of the addon textures.

    Hmm.. I really like Edith's skin. very natural looking. Might also look interesting on a male. Thanks for showing that.

    I tried your suggestion of putting it on a male. There is some strange stretch marks on the chest between the breasts. I guess it expects cleavage there. Here is a quick render that I didn't let complete. If he had clothes, I think it might be fine.

    Here he is with a shirt on. I think he looks good. Serene Night has a good eye for these things. I wouldn't have thought of it.

    This is Briallen for Alexandra 8, another nice character in the bundle. The hair is Fashion Bob, also from the bundle. The top is from dForce Wide Leg Pants, also in the bundle, with a texture from the texture addon set. This is shaping up to be the best bundle in a long time for me! 

  • 3Diva3Diva Posts: 11,733

    @barbult - nice renders! :) And yeah, the pro bundle and all the free bundles that you can get with it really make this a great deal. The pro bundle is sitting in my cart waiting for payday. :)

    You haven't missed anything. The "extra" 30% comes from including 3 featured add-ons. So, another 30% off for being new, and 30% off for PC+ brings the Pro Bundle to (0.7 * 0.7 * 0.7) * 134.95 = 46.29. That promo will likely be around for two weeks, like the other base character releases. Depending on which add-ons you get, it will run you $65 to $80 for a cartload, before any coupons. Don't forget your freebies!

    How did you do that? I have no idea how to use female skin on a male figure.
