    One more for the night as a cloe up. She's awesome. 

    Thanks for the render. Did you turn up the bump on her face, or does she come like that?

    I can't speak for DAZ store, but I wonder if starter bundles have gotten the axe.

    You know, I wouldn't be sad to see them go. I have never bought one. I either get the Pro Bundle or I pick up an item here or there.

    Not to mention the fact that Starter Bundles pop up as not being owned even when you have the Pro Bundle (I know it's a small thing, but it's a tad annoying).

    You should get the DAZ-Deals browser extension then. You can hide unwanted products from appearing. I use this for hiding starter bundles or PA-bundles where I already own the parts of. Comes with a ton of additional features like % discount info in the cart or the options to only show wishlisted products in listings or only show owned stuff. Highly recommended.

    It's not impossible that the company has decided to see about eliminating the starter bundles. I have no idea how many people tended to buy them, rather than either going for the pro, buying only the base character, or just giving the whole thing a pass.

    It will be a long time before they stop showing up in FastGrab, or as freebies attached to other promotions, though.

    And for all I know they may try it for a couple of months and then decide; 'well, that didn't work', and go back to offering them.

    I think they'll be back but they've decided to do this because they were starting to really rack up a large number of Pro Characters. Anyway, they have to do the Pro Characters because that' how they sell the anatomical elements.

    All I did was applied the materials and the normal map, I didn't play around with any of the settings otherwise.

    I added the bundle and two of the add-on, plus I got a 20% off offer and used my PC+ coupon, got the price of the bundle down to $36.77. I will make another order for the PC+ items I want today.

    Why do I want her? Well, I saw that promo and I immediately saw in my mind one of the characters in a story I edit. It sold me. The initial cost gave me pause, and my paws hit the floor, but then I played with the cart.

    As Howie MandeI would say deal or no deal? For you it's a deal.  Considering tomorrow, a $20.00 store credit will hit your account, the bundle is costing you $34 and change. 

    If you use store credit, yes; if you pay up-front, then no, you're paying $54, with some included items available from tomorrow; you don't get them now, but have to wait for them. That would be a big no if I didn't use store credit.

    I second this sentiment.  I am fortunate enough to be able to keep a positive balance of store credit that I use to budget my monthly Daz3D purchases.  Using gift cards, the store credit is acquired at a discount.  With my bank's savings rates so low at the moment, I'm not giving up much by maintaining a positive Daz3D balance in terms of interest foregone in my savings account.  Keeping all of that in mind for me, Daz returning $10 or $20 dollar in store credit tomorrow is a genuine discount.  Given my budget, I get more total Daz3D stuff over the course of the year with the $10 or $20 store credit.  I would consider it differently if I was maintaining my Daz3D balance by borrowing on a high interest credit card, or if I didn't have a budgeted amount that I plan to spend over the course of a year.

    Here's Sukai 8, out of the box (except I used the preset that removes her tattoo and added one of her face mask geo shells).

    The bundle is delightful! It's right up my alley! :D

    @3Diva Beautiful images. She certainly is cute.  I like how you used the utility belt from the Marvelous Bodysuit with the Heart Breaker outfit.

    Thank you! :D And yeah, the Boots and Utility Belt are from the Marvelous Bodysuit, the rest of the outfit (and magic effects) are from the HeartBreaker Outfit. :)

    hahah Thank you, but the pose is all Capsces https://www.daz3d.com/cdi-poses-for-genesis-8-female-and-sukai-8

    I'm a BIG fan of the CDI pose sets - they just often seem to be a step or two above and beyond most pose sets. :) I'm really glad they were included in the bundle.

    @3Diva I love her expression and fierce pose! She looks tough.

    I attached my offering. I adjusted the light and color a bit in postwork  She's wearing the Stardust tank top with Thistle Outfit pants and arm wraps and LadyLittleFox's Bunny Hair.

    Hrm. Mine is a little grainy looking; not sure why.

    Dawwww So cute! :D The Thistle outfit bits go great with her (I think both that outfit and the Stardust have a cool 80's vibe).

    Thanks :)  I think they look cute on her, too. I love the 80's, so that's awesome. If the Stardust Outfit is a nod to Marvel's Jubilee, I read that character was created in the 80's, so maybe that is why the outfit has an 80's look?

    Would love to see her all done up with your NPR style, @3Diva - she looks great! 

    I'm with you re: Capsces' poses. I've yet to pull the trigger on this bundle, but this CDI pose set and the hair are really tempting.

    Thanks for the renders. CDI pose sets are my first stop, followed by Shimuzu & Aeon Soul & Those Things.

    So would I. :( The only version of Daz Studio that renders my NPR shaders properly will no longer boot up ever since this incident: https://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/comment/5941121/#Comment_5941121

    I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling it. It still won't boot up. I've been working on it for the past two weeks trying to figure out why it won't boot up, even after uninstalling it and reinstalling it. As soon as the Log gets to "Compiling OpenGL Shader" that's it, that version of Daz Studio just freezes and won't unfreeze no matter how long I wait (and trust me, I've let it sit for HOURS hoping that it would eventually unfreeze). Losing the ability to properly render my NPR shaders has been really upsetting since I had worked hard on developing the style that I was going to be rendering my comic in. It took me ages to get the "perfect" combination of render settings and different render passes with my NPR shaders that I was going to use for my comic. Now it's pretty much back to the drawing board. I'm going to have to think "outside the box", to try and get an NPR style that I like now.

    @ellessarr

    Crown is the Goddess Circlet by Rhiannon, over on Rendo.

    Bracers are from the Zealoth Outfit with the opacity on the spikes knocked down, I assume.

    Yeah, the skin is fabulous... another good blend of stylized figure and a realism with the skin that could work on others.

    I do like the beauty marks/blemishes on her face quite a bit.

    yes

    So is the body armor. The cape is from something else. Since there's no link on the store page, it's probably something on Rendo.
