Librarian for Lenore
I was starting to think that the excellent Lenore and the Raven characters had sunk without trace amid the tidal waves of V4 variants, but here’s the new The Raven Library bundle of clothes / props / poses, from third-party developer 3D-GHDesign…
50% Renderosity sale – on now
Finally, just when most everyone’s run out of PayPal cash… the 50% Renderosity sale is on, for 26th November 2012 only. Ends at 11:59pm (Renderosity System Time).

“When in Rome…”
An interesting new scene for DAZ Studio or Poser this week: the Roman Museum Hall. You can presumably also remove the Roman props and replace them with your own exhibits. A giant kitsch plushie or a Lovecraftian beastie spring to mind 😉
50% off at Teknology 3D
50% off the entire range on DAZ Studio and Poser content on the Teknology 3D store (excludes new releases).
Use code: bf2012 at checkout and save 50% off your order. Expires Monday.
I note that Teknology 3D has 3D merchant-resource clothing kits for 3D Universe’s Sadie and Sam. These work with Daz’s free Hexagon software, and look nicer and perhaps a bit easier to work with than their DAZ store equivalents?
40% off 3D Universe toons
A healthy 40% off all the 3D Universe (aka 3DU) characters and animals in the Cartoon Universe section over at the DAZ Store. Sale ends Friday.
Steampunkers and some types of webcomic-makers might like to note the rather nice toon steampunk-friendly sofa that’s in the (currently) $4.77 “Staci – Couch Potato” pack…
Renderosity Christmas Contest
Entries are open now for the Renderosity Christmas Contest. The 2012 theme is “Magical Holiday”…
Monstrous freebie
Cool free original toon sci-fi character, for Poser. Sam-anime…
Buried up to the neck in soil, and with a few leaves added, his eye and neck could also become a “mutant plant” character.

New plugin release: Talk Designer Assistant 2 for Poser
Just released, the Poser plugin “Talk Designer Assistant 2” for Poser 9 / Poser Pro 2012, from Andre O’Brien at Anakele Vision and Design…
“make virtually any figure compatible with Poser’s Talk Designer” [Version 2] “now includes automated speech animation processing, for rock solid results without the need to download any further assistance scripts.” [and it] “allows characters with large amounts of facial morph dependencies (such as Michael 5, Tyler GND, and Miki 4) to work directly with Poser’s Talk Designer”
Update: said to work with Poser 11.
Accessories and extras for Lenore and the Raven
A little survey of toon items, that seem to fit with the new Lenore and the Raven characters for Poser. Some would need retexturing, to match Lenore’s distinctive goth colour-scheme:
* Black fur matte for 3DU’s Pocket Pets Toon Kitty.
* Zombie Alchemical Ingredient Sacks.
* A Gothic Bird Bath for the Raven.
* Morphing Gothic Window/Arch (with similar-looking skull to the skull which comes with Lenore).
* Toon Daisy for Poser (could be a cheerful comedic counterweight to Lenore’s gloom).
* DAZ Studio 3 ghost shader presets (turn Lenore into a ghost. Requires DS 3.1.2.32 or higher).
* Possible House Exterior.
