    • Anything that helps add more realism (spots, imperfections, dirtying up things - anything that helps make things less clean, less perfect, and more realistic).
    • Plugins and Helper Tools - anything that helps make the workflow easier.
    • Conversion Tools - I'm a big fan of using content from different generations.
    • Weather and Effects.
    • Pretty much anything by ManFriday.
    • Pretty much anything by Lady Littlefox.
    • Pretty much anything by Stonemason.
    • Anything photorealistic (if a PA makes a product that is almost indistinguishable from a photo it flys into my cart - although products like that are rare).
    • Toons
    • NPR products (anything that helps gives renders more of a "traditional art" look)

    My tastes reside at both extreme ends of the spectrum - I love things that help bring as much photorealism as possible to my renders and I love things that help my renders look more like traditional art/2D art.

    I have a tendancy to collect Tools; anything by ManFriday, Zev0, RiverSoftArt etc.  Hair:  OOT, Linday, Biscuits, AprilYSH and Chevybabe25 pretty much hit my cart instantly. A good sale.....  I pick up stuff I don't need because i "might" need it in the future.

    - Handsome, athletic hunks. Yes, I'm basic AF.

    - Gorgeous Asian and Black women.

    - Pale white women, whether gothic and mysterious or ginger and freckled.

    - Badass warrior women.

    - Bodysuits, especially sci-fi ones. Unfortunately the store is overflowing with them, tempting me again and again...

    - Grungy environments; industrial, sci-fi, backstreets. The irony is that most of my renders are pin-ups of characters so I would probably get by with a single grungy wall and a a floor.

    While I really really like their dForce outfits - to me, they just dforce so easily and so well - I ADORE their jewellery sets. Probably my fave jewellery sets of all.

    Arryn and Onnel

    Their jewelry alone is worth the price of the entire outfit as far as I'm concerned. They're so pretty. If they ever want to release a jewelry bundle I will jump on that so fast. Also the normal maps on their clothes are magical. They are just ridiculously good at making flat dforce meshes look solid 

     

     

     

     

    YES! They're jewelry sets are GORGEOUS! I just wish they had more morphs and posing ability - then they'd be absolutely top notch!

     

    Speaking of jewelry, I'm a sucker for...

     

    1. Jewelry. All kinds of it. Rings, necklaces, bracelets, and especially earrings, particularly longer, dangly earrings.

    2. Boots. Knee high, over the knee, thigh high - as long as they're well modelled. 

    3. Pants with wrinkles. Modelled wrinkles, not normal maps - needs the geometry intact for shaders!

    4. Shaders/Shader Presets.

    5. Stockings - though since the release of Herschel Hoffmeyer's Mystique 2, that demand has been met for the foreseeable future (those are DIVINE)

    6. Anything released by Mousso, Those Things, Linday, OutOfTouch, Arryn/Onnel, Windfield, AprilYSH, or Herschel Hoffmeyer (I'm sure there's more, but you get the idea).

    7. Really well done modern interior sets (Tesla3D, I'm lookin at you)

    8. High quality, realistic characters.

    9. Big discounts.

    10. New releases in general. The first thing I do every morning when I wake up is check the new releases. It's sad, but I don't care. Yes I have a problem, and I don't care about that either lol

    11. Creepy stuff. Gothic/horror items are a droolfest for me, espcially when it's combined with something from above, like spider earrrings. The more realistic the better, but no too supernatural. I like my stuff mostly set in the realm of reality.

    ... everything, that has the potential, to bring renders closer to photo realism.

  • In no particular order:

    1.Fancy Dresses and cute styles

    2.Cute characters 

    3.Cute and gorgeous hairstyles 

    4.Sci fi stuff 

    5.Morphs and utilities

    I love the stuff by Petipret (spelling?) His (Her?) SF stuff is fantastic. 

    I would love to see some Battlestar Galactica and Star Trek stuff here.

    Generally I love SF space ships, stations, suites, and such..... I have so much of it from here, and from other places.

    Love Stone Mason, Bitwelder stuff. 

    A set like an old abandoned SF ground base is great, but it would be so much more useful if it came with a well upkept, active version included. 

    And.... "New releases in general. The first thing I do every morning when I wake up is check the new releases. It's sad, but I don't care. Yes I have a problem, and I don't care about that either lol." applies to me too.

    Stonemason sets.

    Its not just that they look fantastic - which they do, But they don't get nearly enough praise for how resource efficient they are. Most of them take barely over 1gb memory on my gpu which is straight up witchcraft.

     

    Aprilysh Hair

    YES!

    Cats... Both 3D and real. Oh, and couple(s) poses.

    Apart from that, I don't think there's anything else. Although, I find the zombies and apocalyptic stuff a complete "turn off".

    Oh man, I'm a sucker for so many things.  

    -Poses: I'm terrible at getting a pose exactly right.  Every time a new pose pack catches my eye, it ends up in my library.  cheeky

    -Expressions

    -Plant props

    -Pretty much anything by Moussou: I have so many figures.  I especially love the male figures.  I'm ok with this problem. devil

    -Wizard outfits: I have a thing for wizards.

    -Spell props

    -Utilities: Who doesn't want to make life easier? cheeky

    -Medieval anything: Umm yeah, kind of goes with some of the wizadry stuff.

    -Victorian-themed items

    -Hair

     

    I'm sure there's more that I can't think of right now.

  • I'm a sucker for cats in RL, but not 3D because the ones available are not convincing to me.

    In 3D, probably for slender characters who are shown off by elegant clothing. And landscape models. If I can't draw it, I'm a sucker for it. Manufactured items that I can draw, not really interested.

    I use 3D to recreate some of my favorite memories (sometimes fantasy versions of them), so:

    • Diner/fast food, food stands, anything to do with food, especially food or food places you'd find late at night. I found Dodger's Burger Jack's Meal when I was going through a phase of self-discovery where it hit JUST RIGHT and I've been on that kick ever since. It doesn't matter whether it's a medieval banquet or a futuristic diner, if it's food I am there.
    • Slot machines/computers/any gaming machine (especially prize machines), or accessory. From those simple pachinko-like machines from the Old West to modern UFO catchers.
    • Malls/Arcades/Game centers/basements/etc. Anywhere fun and gaming are found, whether it's console time with cousins or hanging out at the mall.
    • Alleys and industrial warehouses. Think alleys with punk venues and urban junkyards.
    • Bathrooms/showers. The dirtier the sink/toilet, the better, but clean is cool too.
    • Corner/convenience stores/gas stations. The kind you find on road trips, the middle of the nowhere, awesome fried chicken, way too many sodas and candies to pick from, still selling Garbage Pail Kids from 14 years ago (happened to me and I didn't realize they were old until I looked up one of the cards), etc. The sort of place you only run into once per trip (or at least that's the way it used to seem).
    • Anything with gross fluids/solids. There isn't enough of this out there, and I've turned HitFilm's blood spray into a Taco Bell/dive bar bathroom generator. I intend to make a Garbage Pail Kids-inspired set once I make time to hone my 3D modeling skills 
    • Emo/scene hair/clothes for guys. Raccoon tail hair, guyliner, and snake bites, oh my!
    • Girly clothes that my guys can wear.
    • Humanoid creatures like the Reptilian, Torak, evil clown, etc.
