    I had the privledge of creating base textures for Thorne's Daisy 8 model and she's a really fun beautiful character ;-)

    I did build them with the idea in mind that she could also be used in non-fairy everyday render work ;-)

    @caravelle and @lana_lass

    Happy Birth Day to you both. I also share it with you.
    Lana, I have 38 years on you. Enjoy having so much more time to enjoy the 21st Century and its technology. 
    I am not only a Gemini, but have Libra rising, so I am never what people expect. 
    Daisy 8's bundle and extras is in my cart now.

    I had a good laugh at "Dahlia" and "Dhalia" both releasing as part of the same figure launch.

    You aren't the only one! Tho mine was more of a panic attack... twice before i've had characters about done and then found out someone else was using the same name and submitted same time or right before me, and then had to back and change names on morphs, dials, thumbnails, promos... make sure there were conflicts, etc...  It's the main reason I put "DD" in front of all the characters I do. It's not so people say "oh, its DD work..." its so if someone else has the same name, I don't have to go and rename it all, the likelihood of something having the same character name AND the same initial in front is a lot smaller. But yeah! Dhalia and Dahlia... I was still worried it'd be rejected for name similarity! Eek. Totally different styles though.

    A core character new release on my 30th birthday!! How awesome! However, I can't afford her as for some reason I've not got the purple banner LOL! Strange, as I've got a purple banner for the last three pro bundle new releases and I've actually bought another pro bundle since then. Is the Daisy 8 purple banner not linked to pro bundle ownership perhaps?  

    Happy Birthday! And welcome to 30's Club laugh

    My purple banner is linked to the amount of G8 Pro Bundles. Sadly they don't say the amount to make the cut, maybe they increased it?

    I have to say this purple banner is a huge improvement over the last ones. Hope they don't go back to the 20% with coupon.

    And Happy Birthday too!

     

    Now about this bundle. Really? another one?

    I'm partly bias because i'm more into sci-fi than fantasy, but i just don't get why another female young fairy (is this one like what..the 4th already?). Non of the dark/goth theme items, makeup or morphs needed a "new" base. I actually don't own any of the other young fairys so i could grab this just to have one but i don't really need it. One nice hair and 2 outfits that may be used outside fairy theme. Even with the big discounts (Pro goes for $34 with the textures for 2 outfits) there are no additional good benefits. While the banner and PC+ sales discounts provides nice base, the Daisy Pro bundle provides very little in comparison to previous characters. No DO credit. Only 5 items free, mostly characters that you can get for very little when properly discounted. I think i'll have more characters than clothes for them at this rate! And the Gen3 benefits (that is not actually tied to Daisy) feels more like an extension of PC items for a day with average items.

    With this character I do feel the lack of originality in new releases. But I don't think like the G8 must end. There are a lot of things people ask for; like male equivalent for Sakura, Aiko and The Girl. Female version of the freak? I think there was one in previous generations. And while i'm all open (and prefer) multi ethnics, i find the lack of Lilith 8 a huge loss for the generation. Also, make more Aliens, that can provide better variations in both male/female; just think of different morphs than an exposed spine.

    I love characters by Thorne and Hinkypunk. I don't believe in limiting myself so question here is, are the textures from Pria and Fi usable on other character morphs? I have no interest in Daisy 8, pretty as she is, but the many characters created for her have textures I am very interested in.

    Here's Zelara with Fi's skin.  Well, one of her many skins.

    @JeniMorris great work! I noticed right away last night when I picked her up that she could easily work in a non-fairy setting as well!

    Really nice bundle, and with the banner it's really a nice deal.

  • JOdelJOdel Posts: 6,288

    I was thinking we were getting due for another Thorne girl. This one rather reminds me of Giselle 6, although not as tall.

    Yes, thank the promo artists for a  clean face promo. Some of the makup on characters makes it impossible to see what they look like. And I never thought I'd see an Arki outfit in a Pro Bundle. And a lovely one, too.

    Although, to be honest, I wasn't expecting a new core figure quite this early in the PC+ summer sale event. But all the stuff in this one looks like it comes to bits and the bits are all kitbashable. So a win.

    Good offer with purple banner, but I'm not that much interested in another fairy.

    For a fairy bundle I miss the wings.

    Maybe later.

    Really? I don't think the offer is good at all. Very little perks this time. But I do like the character and bundle. And the artists who did the promos for some of the addon characters are amazing, some of the best promos I've seen!

    Happy twinning birthday @caravelle !!! :D :D Twinning being especially appropriate for us, seeing as we are under the crazy sign of Gemini! I mean, I'm quite sure I don't believe in astrology, but perhaps I'm wrong and we are in fact "The Twins"!  wink

     

    And thank you for the birthday wishes @SilentWinter! It is so kind of you to post in order to send them our (including caravelle)  way! You're lovely and I hope today is a wonderful day for you smiley In fact, that is my official birthday wish, haha, so by the law of birthdays it shall be so! heart

     

    Also, it's just occured to me maybe the purple banner today is a special one only for those who own the other fairy Daz ft. Thorne bundles, like Rynne? That would make sense, and also explain why I've not got anything as I don't have any of the fairy characters. 

    Happy birthday fellow Geminis! Mine was May 28th. All of my Gemini friends have one thing in common--we're very social and love going to parties and events. Wondering if it's the same with both of you? 
     

    Sorry OT.  Love the bundle and it's in my cart!

    I thought it was pretty good all things considered...and I'm usually nit-picky. I was very happy to not have the same "pick-through-this-same-list-of-Daz-Originals-I've-already-picked-through-and-there's-nothing-left-I-could-possibly-ever-want-or-use" offer...

    I'd rather have more of a discount off the bundle than the same list of free crap I don't want over and over.

    So am I missing something? The base Daisy 8 character isn't on sale unless you buy one of the bundles? I usually like to purchase the base character, and a few add-ons. I'm a bit disappointed and I hope this doesn't become a trend.

    Ok, must have been some weirdness with my browser or something. I logged into DAZ3D with my phone, and I am seeing a sale price on the base Daisy 8. Sorry.
