Time for another round-up of the last month’s new goodies and releases for Poser and DAZ Studio users. As usual, only commercial-use freebies are noted, unless they’re fan-art so obvious that no-one would think of trying to use them commercially.
This post covers releases and items which caught my eye in mid January to mid February 2023.
Science-fiction:
A fabulous Hollywood-level dForce Space Jumpsuit for G8F. I’m assuming it’s not fan-art.
Astro Car, flying car models for Poser.
1971’s new Place of Screams for Poser, and also seperately for DAZ Studio. Looks good, and his modelling always renders nicely in Poser’s Comic-Book line-art.
A stylised Dragon Limousine for Poser. With a bit of a texture makeover it would be suitable for a dieselpunk world. And if you need Presidential outriders, there’s the new Thirties Streamline Motorcycle.
AutoBar with robot bar-tender. For Poser and DAZ. See below, for a link to a good new robot/cyborg TTS voice.
Fantasy:
Poizen’s new HelmZ for Poser. As .OBJ files, so can also easily go to Vue and DAZ Studio. Not to be confused with the older Helmet-Z series.
Poisen’s new HeartZ 3D Models for Poser. Again, these are different from his older CharmZ 3D hearts.
He also has a new BoneGarden set.
Storybook:
Scaffolding for 1971’s Roller House, a nice and unusual freebie. Could be paired with AnnieMation’s Fairytale Road Trip model.
Chull Clothes One set, for Nursoda’s new Chull figure.
BlenCon – Cozy Room for Poser Superfly. Nice to see Poser conversions of Blender models. In this case, a free ‘cozy room’ interior suitable for the start of a ‘once upon a time’ tale. There’s also a Part Two.
Just add a few of the free Bambi Chairs about the room.
Animals:
Nothing in toon or animals this month, but there are some free Thicker Sabers for HiveWire Big Cat, for making a sabre-tooth.
Characters, clothing, hair:
Gear Up from Coflek-Gnorg, generic army packs.
Free Scuba Diver Suit and Scuba Diver Fins and Hood, Mask and Snorkel, all for Poser’s La Femme.
Hr-253 from Ali, a new hair with many fits including V4 and La Femme. Also a texture set with shading.
Dynamic pants and top for Antonia, the free Poser figure.
MP Realistic Feet for Genesis 8.
Office Aniblocks for Genesis 8. Sitting and typing, opens drawer and so on.
Landscape:
Tanglewood Stumpery – Fairy Tale Tree Stumps, Dead and Fallen Trees for DAZ Studio.
Photo Props: Aurora Effect from ShaaraMuse3D. Seems to be a “simple plane set” rather than each prop being an array of planes.
EV Ocean FX. 3D ocean models for Poser, including a water-spout or sink-hole.
Historical:
Ken has his Royal Hawaiian for Genesis 3 and higher on Renderosity. Was at Hivewire. His Hawaiian Voyager, Weapons of Lua, and Royal Hawaiian for Dusk are also now on Renderosity.
Leudo, a coastal Mediterranean trader, 15th-17th century. Could be framed rather nicely in the bay, by the new Wild Dog Rose.
Marta, a free boat model in .OBJ.
A Ford Model T car from Cybertenko, complete with ‘comedy crash’ morph presets. The first affordable mass-market car, much used in the old silent comedy movies of the 1910s and 20s.
1910s-30s Deep Sea Diver for G8M.
That Yellow Seaplane, a classic 1930s/40s sea-plane. With interior.
Utilities:
The free DAZ to Blender Bridge updated and fixed.
A free G8F Pose Transfer to G1 Script for DAZ Studio.
Batch Tonemapper. Free… “Batch Tonemapper is a simple program allowing you to generate thumbnails for .EXR or .HDR files.”
And in 2D, another free Krita free brush bundle from David Revoy.
Tutorials:
50 Shades of iRay: Create Your Own Unique Fabrics.
Mesh Grabber Expert Guide: Powerful Manipulation of Meshes and Morphs in DAZ Studio.
The new free video tutorial How to set up dynamic clothing in Poser.
Automatic TTS speaking – the secret control codes! Useful for those who use text-to-speech voices. And for robot voices, CereProc has a rather good paid movie-quality one. For more basic but free ‘comedy bot’ voices, see here and here.
Ok, that’s it for now. More next month.
