It’s still a little early in the month, but I’m taking my monthly look at some of most eye-catching content released on the Poser and Daz stores since Christmas:
Steel Town Blast Furnace is large and unusual. Often the sort of setting used at the end of 1980s gangster and cop movies, and some types of superhero movies (Wolverine, Spiderman). Which shows that the pro’s have found it to be a usefully generic setting…
Want the Hulk to come along and “SMASSHHH!!!” your Blast Furnace? Well, just slip the new Ogora the Orc HD into the nearest phone booth for a superhero quick-change and… you might get Marvel’s The Incredible Hulk character. Even as an Orc, he has more character than many of the generic orcs available for Poser and Daz…
The Wild West seems to be deeply unfashionable these days, killed off by self-indulgent dross like the dire Lone Ranger movie and rubbish ‘comedies’ like A Million Ways to Die in the West. But Western Outlaw for Genesis 2 Male looks like a fine outfit, and could fit nicely in a historical scene alongside last month’s DAZ release of the American Bison…
An equally cool new wilderness outfit is for V4, the Pulp Heroes: The Explorer for V4…
Songbird ReMix: Birds of Prey Vol 3, Hawks of the New World offers American Hawks for Poser-only, to the usual superb standard of the Songbird ReMix series…
The toon character Pink is not at all well-served by his initial promo picture on the store. Nor by his ‘search-engine unfriendly’ name. But behind that there’s an interesting-looking aquatic sprogling character from new developer Chk2033, just crying out for immersion in a sparkling Spore-like pond…
Pagan Throne seems a suitable setting for the Winter Birds masked fantasy characters (requires The Owls for V4 and M4)…
If I were making a Doctor Who 3d comic and I wanted a cool new-look Tardis that hadn’t yet been used by anyone else, I might try to adapt and retexture the pods of the new retro-style Cryogenic Chamber from BlueTreeStudio…
Steam Outpost is another in 1971s’s extensive fantasy-architecture series. Nicely Morrowind-meets-Myst. Equally nice is his new steampunk Diesel Daisy…
Also in steampunk, Cybertenko has a rigged Poser Turtle Submersible, a copy of the first submarine in America. This is available free as a static mesh elsewhere, but Cybertenko has obviously done a great job of fully rigging it…
That’s it for now!
