    Characters by FWArt & Sabby, Artimis3D, Countess & Silver? Why don't you just point a gun at me and say: "Gimme all your money."? Seriously, job well done. Thanks, and thanks for the coupon.

    She looks great, a definite improvement over S5.

    That said, compared to the other figures in the '6' line, her armpits do look to be a little high, not quite as bad as V4 was, but still high enough to look like they might need a fix at some point. What does anyone else think?

    CHEERS!

    I can't completely agree with you about her being "a definite improvement over S5", though. At least, not yet.

    I'm still downloading her, so I haven't had a chance to work with her. But also, I happen to be right fond of Stephanie 5. Her Riley persona is one of my favorite Genesis female characters; I use her a lot! She's cute, kinda spunky, with that 'Stevie Nicks, back when she was only in her sixties' look!

    Awesome looking character, but if history is to repeat itself, an HD version won't be too far behind. I think I'll hold off. Besides, I haven't grown bored of V6 yet. Not by a long shot.

    Being a great fan of Stephanie 4 (which was probably the best set of morphs made for V4, in my opinion), I was waiting for Stephanie 6 to give Gen 2 a look... Took the plunge now :) .

    Honestly i've no idea yet how I will use these things (got V6 and Josie 6 as well), but this time I really think I'll need to learn how to use all my content in daz.

    Shes cute. Wow.
    can someone tell me, what hair was used in the "Ginger" promos? it looks stunning.
    Thank you.

    It is this hair using the hr2 version to avoid the autofit distortion :)

    Riley was about the only decent character there was, S5 as standard was plain ugly and the Elite Joanie texture really added nothing to the mix.

    I really liked S4, she had different heads and bodies that you could mix and match and no further release has had the same versatility straight out of the box.

    CHEERS!

    I never did that much with S4, mostly because I could never find any decent clothes to fit her! When the unimesh fits for the various V4 clothing products were released, poor Stephanie was almost never invited to the party; there were fits for Aiko 4, the Girl 4 (which I have never used, and probably never will!), even She-Freak 4. But Stephanie always seemed to get left in the lurch.

    That's why I hopped on Stephanie 5 when she appeared; I knew that there would be clothing options for her.

    CHEERS!To each his own, but having met the real Joanie, and knowing that is her body scan for the Stephanie 5 morph, as a matter of opinion, I will definitely disagree with you. Stephanie 5 added a much needed, IMHO, actual petite woman shape. Granted her skin in the texture set is a little lighter than I expected but overall it is definitely her.

    I do believe they should have done a Green skin version of here. :)

    I used her heads with V4 bodies, clothing would fit then.

    Well, after looking at the real Joanie and looking at S5, I do wonder what went wrong. The real Joanie is absolutely gorgeous! Had S5 been a proper digital clone of Joanie with a photo real texture I don't think there would have been anything to complain about.

    CHEERS!

    I think there were some magnets on the store, to fit all clothes to S4 proportions and shapes. Not 100% sure, but the vendor is Lyrra, I think.

    In Poser I use a 3rd party tool called Library Manager that makes 80% of the work (with magnets too), and I just have to play with scales and morphs dials to get the 20% remaining addressed :)

    I have never really taken an interest at all in the Stephanie models. I got started in rendering with Vicky 3 and have stayed with her straight down the line. However, I really like the look of Steph 6, and am considering taking the plunge. (Oy! That means lots more content to buy!)

    Quick question though...does anyone know if the UV maps for V6/Gen 2 are compatible/interchangeable with S6? It would be great if
    I could get some extra mileage out of the resources I've already purchased for Victoria.

    Thanks!!

    CHEERS!It is her shape, and while the Joanie texture is a little lighter than her normal tan, (The shoot was done late winter.) it is definitely photorealistic, well at least the parts of her that I have seen in real life.

    Nice renders,

    Maybe I'll take another look at her someday.

    Yes, all G2F content is compatible with Steph6. All skins will apply and all clothing will auto fit, it's the same base character so it won't auto mangle. Her breasts aren't huge so there's not much distortion with the auto morph generation.

    Slender Stephanie 6 - Additional Morphs, Presets and a Conforming Outfit

    That is good! I guess only with this pack, S6 would get closer to S4 and S5, whom I like very much.

    Other products that caught my eye include:
    - Isolabella Dress
    - Fancy Hair
    - What a Cutie Expressions for Stephanie 6
    - Spring Hair

    I also enjoy the following items, but I cannot find them in the store (any ideas?):
    - Playful Flirt Dress for Genesis 2 Female(s) shown on Stephanie 6 with 2 of the lovely Moonlight Poses
    - BWC Poses of the Orient (even though I nearly never buy pose packs as I make them myself - sometimes with a base from one of the free ones - this is just too specific to resist IF it conforms with the clothes so well)
    - Steph 6 merchant resource
    - Wicked Night Out HD for Stephanie 6 and Genesis 2 Female(s)
    - FWSA Keshi for Stephanie 6
    - jewellery by Fisty

    Where are they supposed to be? Stephanie 6 category? No. New Releases? Nope. Searching doesn't help.

    It's also very interesting to see a figure with a default intensively tanned skin - or is it due to the lighting only?

    Stephanie 6 is here and we're really excited!! She's a petite, feminine character for Genesis 2 Female(s). You can find her here:

    Stephanie 6 Base
    Stephanie 6 Starter Bundle
    Stephanie 6 Pro Bundle

    Feel free to use this thread to share your renders of our newest Genesis 2 Female as well as discuss all things Stephanie 6!

    Ok, what happened here, how come 2 renders of S5 with the Joanie texture have ended up here!?

    Oops!

    CHEERS!

    In all but one render, those armpits still look too high, the rest of the G2 girls aren't like this. I'd still like somebody elses' take on this.

    CHEERS!

    I have mixed feelings. The S5 pro bundle was one of my best purchases, and the S5 morphs were some of the ones I used most for Genesis. But this pro bundle feels a bit lacking. The figure is nice, the extra characters are nice...but there doesn't seem to be any hair or outfits that scream at me to buy the pro bundle. I like to buy pro bundles because they feel like an awesome value, you get tons of great stuff to add a lot of variety to your runtime; and where the G2F library is still pretty young, I think DAZ missed a great opportunity to throw some new and unique outfits our way. It looks like this just gives us a long dress, a short dress, and some springwear... :(

    Of course, I tend to do fantasy and sci-fi renders, so modern clothes don't catch my interest as much. YMMV.

    There are some really nice characters coming for her, and I think she looks pretty cute.

    Gonna be nice to add her to the collection, eventually.

    A quick test-render of the G-Six sisters, Steph, Ginger, Taylor, Madeline and Beau. In no particular order.

    Any chance of someone posting a comparison of all the new Genesis ladies together? Curious to see the difference in Stephanie and the previous releases of the 6s. Please :)

    Oh, I adore Taylor! Like Riley for S5, this character surpasses the base, IMO!

    And of course, by the principles of Sympathetic Magic and the Law of Similarity, I had to use the Taylor hair on Taylor!
