Welcome to thread 4! Thread 3 just ended on March 5th, 2014, with over 35,000 active posts and views- we hope you are enjoying the products and discussions as much as we are! Thread 3 started on December 18th and didn't take us long to zip right along with all the wonderful talent helping to showcase and discuss the products used in their renders. About 2 1/2 months- wow.
I'm so glad to have the assistance of the Invited Guest Contributors because they do beautiful work! Appreciate you all very much. They post as time permits because they are very busy individuals.
I will be carrying the product list forward so it's easy to find, and continue to add the links from the previous threads. It's a lot of work and will never be current (rendering comes first) so be sure and peruse the threads to see all the products used.
To skip the links to the products we've covered, and go right to the current posts, start here: (you know the links to the products already covered are on this first page and can find them easily when there's a sale and you want to see a product/discussion about it.)

NEW! From start to finish, my thread in The Commons on how to install your studio and setup the DIM to a different drive, other than the default. This is handy if your C drive is full. Thanks to Jaderail, Fixmypcmike, and mjc1016! http://www.daz3d.com/forums/discussion/39030/

These links will take you to the vendor summaries- you'll have one post with links to the reviews of just that vendor (done by the ICG's and Novica), which makes it fast for you to see products quickly during Flash Sales / regular sales. These summary posts will be scattered throughout the thread, so I put this on the first page so you can find the vendors quickly. :) It is always a work in progress, there WILL be more products in the thread/previous thread than what are listed. The threads are really busy!

YAAAAAAAAY!!!!! New thread!!! Marja Hair is a great hair. Styled right, and it's nearly identical to Tommie's hair as I 've always depicted it in my drawings; significantly more so than either Erato Hair or the free August Hair from ShareCG. The blonde texture is a little mousy, but add a little yellow and it works. It's very poseable too, and takes the Hat Head Deformers very well with some work.
Looks good- and nice job with getting a hat on it- that's good to know :) (And fun render, although someone in the render doesn't seem too impressed!)

do you guys really buy all this stuff ?
Yep :)
A lot of it is Platinum Club, a lot of it was stacking discounts and really good sales. Just have to have patience and wait- but remember Christmas a year ago with all those overlapping sales? You could get 40% off a 70% price, or 40% off a 60%, etc. Some were short lived boo boos obviously.
My sister is a teacher and I do things for the kids, so a wide variety gives me the options to create different word scenes for her. I'm happy to putz and play in my "old age" and do some projects for me too- not anywhere near ready to publish yet, but that's a goal. I'm sloooooow.
As for the Marja hair, the only real issue with using it with Hat Head is the scalp mat zone can poke through the hair where the deformers press the hair against the head if you don't turn off the opacity on it. I turned it back on for this shot because I needed it since her hair was tucked behind her ear in this shot and the angle of the shot hides the "bad" area. If the angle of the shot or hat hides that, and the hair pose requires the scalp turned on, leave it on, otherwise, turn the opacity of the scalp mat zone to 0 when using Hat Head with Marja Hair.
One thing I am finding with the Perfect V4 is that regardless of having clothing parented, nothing will stay with the figure. I've tried many outfits and the clothes do not move with the figure. I'm going to test the same outfits on a regular V4.
EDIT: Tested the Annabelle Outfit on the regular V4 and it appears it is either the outfit or the "General V4 Poses" which are at fault. That outfit is not sticking to the figure even when parented.
Coming up-
I've never used the full Opus Magnum set, nor tested it with the lights which are included. It's rendering now- and the candles are really neat, the mirror has a reflection. This first render coming shortly will be "out of the box." It's at 33% and 28 minutes, so give it about half an hour or more as the character hasn't even been rendered which is in the scene.

As promised, I looked out some renders I did a short while ago of Ivory for V4. The renders are nothing special, I'm afraid: just quickies I did to try out the texture and some of the other items that appear in them.
The first picture is the base Ivory character by Virtual_World (applied to V4) and the second shows one of the make-up options. If I re-did these now, I think I'd adjust the expressions a bit as she looks scarily starey-eyed!
In both of these she is wearing the top from the Aussie Girl Outfit by DAZ3D/Mada/Thorne. Her hair is Pure Hair: Darling by Valea. The jewellery is a freebie set. The background is from InaneGlory's Photo Studio 2 but the lighting is a single Advanced Ambient light by Age of Armour.
The third picture shows the Ivory texture applied to a Genesis-based child figure. Her hair is Pure Hair: Sweet by DAZ3D/Valea, her dress is a freebie from Wilmap at ShareCG, her shoes are from the Ballerina Assembly Kit by Dogz. The room setting is from Classic Deco: Eclectic 1 by DAZ3D/Jack Tomalin and the backdrop is the skybox from Easy Environments Greenlands by Flipmode.

I just wanted to mention that the Mini Dress is not a great fit for Genesis 1, but it works OK with the Genesis 2 Female clothing Autofit if you say "none" for the clothing type. The Sultry Hair is a great up-do, although I don't see what's particularly "sultry" about it. :)

Showing the lightset that comes with Opus Magnum, the first is without postwork, the second is simply adjusting the light and intensity, no lights added. The Anabelle Outfit is interesting, can go into several time periods/fantasy.
EDIT: BTW, you'd like the shoes that come with this outfit. There is a foot fix that will make the heels behave. So if you are looking for high heeled shoes that behave, consider this outfit.
Melanie- thanks!
When I installed the new DIM version, something's gone funky. The products show up in Content Library in the lists, but nothing shows up. Ivory and those other two I listed (in the other thread) are in that category of "no shows." So thanks for covering her :)
I know what you mean about the eyes, I have to apply poses to get V4 to look good. Do you have this? I'll do a closeup of Alayeh in this scene and you can see the eyes. (Even if you do, I'll show it for other folks to see.)

I like the shiny Short Sleeve Mini Dress. Thanks for posting the render.
Edit: I did not know that Sexy Silky comes with shoes. I will go look for them in my content pane.
tjohn- I really like the motorcyle render- nice touch with the helmet on back.
I didn't get the mini dress, but it seems like it does better than usual with the clingwrap breast look- the top portion seems more fluid.
Nice job on both renders.
Just in case you haven't seen it, the spend $50 and get $10 off is active. You can use those cheap items to get two qualifying items in your cart for the 50%, plus if you bought Vikings or Steph6 Pro, an additional 10% (makes it 55% I believe, it's not 60%) then when you go over 50.00 it's 10.00 off the total. These three for example:
Sultry Hair goes to .67
Mara is $4.35
Glamorous Riva Bundle 24.53.
All three total 29.55 (It's 102.85 full price - 73.30)
(EDIT: Shows as 52.73 when you view shopping cart before you click on the cart. So over $50 When I take the Riva out, the Sultry goes to .90 and the Mara to 5.82 as it's not over 50.00)
Tested- without Mara, the total would only be 44.96 and the Riva bundle was 32.83 and Sultry was .89 JUST THOSE TWO CAME TO 33.72 so adding that Mara drops it to 29.55! Three items for cheaper!
The Sultry Hairs are currently $1.19 (if you're a PC Member) in the Store before any further discounts in the Cart. I don't know why.
Here's a closeup of the Anabelle Outfit and the eyes which seem more natural IMO, using
http://www.daz3d.com/100-essential-emotions-for-v4
I left the spotlight a bit bright and didn't tweak to the "best" that I could, just wanted you to see the eyes really well. I like the expressions in that product, they are relaxed and seem pretty natural. Quite a variety offered too.
@Novica like that expression and face a lot, in the closeup shot. She doesn't have that empty, staring into space look so many promo images and pictures have. Her eyes have a convincing feel.
@TJohn: I agree with Novica, the chest of that dress looks quite fitted. I like the shape there. That is a believable set of wrinkles wish more PA's added such details to tops that are supposed to be skin tight.
@Sasje: I like your sci-fi render wtih Artemis X. She looks good sitting on one of those ubiquitous sci-fi crates. =-)
I'm afraid they always offer coupons in the afternoon. When will I learn? I'm due for some more men things! Load me up!
I know, it's always a burn when you buy things like the Vikings or a bundle which are higher priced, then they offer that $10 off deal. I didn't buy the Viking bundle until the second day, was waiting on a special deal, but didnt happen. Wouldn't have gotten the Riva bundle today if it wasn't an additional $10 off.
BTW, you can get Carrara 8.5 Pro for about $28 right now- just add one of the cheap qualifying items for that second item. You only have a few minutes though, the cheapies are on Day 2 so will be removed shortly. Like this one:
