Aeon Soul body shape/morph?

I'm loving everything that Aeon Soul has been putting out lately, but I'm curious to know where can I find the body shape, or morph that is being used in Aeon Soul's renders. Or is that a custom morph that Aeon Soul uses for personal use?
Comments
Aeon Soul has produced work under different names at different times. Always using the initials A.S. When he (she?) was working with V4, he has a character called "Alice" There were several versions. Sometimes head & body, sometimes just body. Often the clothing he (and sometime other artists) produced had an "Alice" morph.
If you're interested in this I can look at the readMe's and see if there's anything there for you.
Maybe...if it's a variation of Alice.
In the past they have made her (or similar to her) available, but I'm not sure there is a more recent version...there is a V4 version on their DeviantArt page

And if I recall, AS is a they...
The Alice morph they use for their G2F promos is a custom morph that they have not released (and there is no mention of whether or not they will release it).
If you have the GenX apps (available here at DAZ) and the V4 morph (available at RDNA), you can always try to transfer it to G2F from V4.
Will do a search on the Genx apps. It would be nice if they released the morph though. Curious to know is the RDNA affiliated with Renderosity? Also, i do have Victoria 4, with the base morphs, Legacy INJection slots, Morphs++. One more question, is it easy to transfer Victoria morphs to G2F? If so, I would hope the morph wouldn't affect the G2F's geometry like it does with Victoria. What I mean by that is, with Victoria her butt, and thighs doesn't look natural with bending poses.
RDNA and Rendo are totally different brokerages. :)
As for transferring the morphs using GenX2, it's a pretty simple process as long as you follow the instructions in the fairly detailed user guide. Dimension3D is pretty good about his user guides, so they're worth a read. The transferred morphs use the V4 shape for G2F, so you get G2F's bends. Keep in mind that you won't get the exact morph AS uses in their G2F promos doing this -- you'll get the V4 Alice morph on G2F (which is close but looks a bit different).
The current... I think 6th version... for V4 is for sale at RDNA. http://www.runtimedna.com/AliceYly.html I ported the 5th version over to both Genesis and G2F a while back via Genx2 and it worked quite nicely.
For reference, I pulled up my Alice 5/G2F transfers and did some quick renders using the Alfaseed Sisterhood Skin. I don't see any reason the new version wouldn't transfer just as well.
Hey, hi and thanks much for the appreciation!
Well, I'll grab the chance to answer here, since we've been receiving this kind of question a lot lately.
Alice G2 it's not in the plans...
The reason being we don't want/cannot afford (time/focus-wise) to work on a character now or in the next months.
We are trying to be as effective as possible and are focusing on clothes, clothes add-ons, hair and poses.
To be honest we're very happy about this right now, we haven't been so productive in years (those of you that know AS from way back maybe noticed this) and we want to keep on going.
We don't feel like tackling a custom character right now, especially since the Alice we are using changes constantly (that's the beauty if G2), as in almost every day we change something.
It doesn't mean we won't ever, but we're very dedicated when we decide to market a character and now we don't want to do it. Moreover a new Alice would require a new skin and skin is not something we want to do/tackle at the moment.
So, it's not a firm No, because never say never, but it's not planned for the near future.
And yes, it's a we, as in he models, she textures, he sculpts Alice, she makes poses :).

Thanks for the response. I wasn't so much concerned about Alice's face, or textures. Just her body shape. I wouldn't expect you to share how exactly you achieved making her body type. But, was it achieved using Poser, or by using one of Daz's apps with certain sliders? Hope I'm making sense here. Thanks for sharing, much appreciated.
Sure, that makes sense.
She's mostly ZBrush work, we may use a couple of G2 morphs now and then and then again refine her in ZBrush.
You're welcome and no worries, we don't mind sharing our process!

Awesome, thanks for sharing. If you guys ever get around to releasing a morph of Alice, just hit me up. Again, thanks!
