With the Marcoor Star Ship series, we have a really cool star ship exterior and a plethora of additional interior rooms and corridor to depict our ship how we want in a very modular way.

The SS Marcoor Corridor is a beautiful piece all by itself - but Corridor 2 and the Control Room expand it to branch off, intersect, or simply expand it in many, Many different ways.

Add to that the SS Marcoor Lifts and we can now traverse the various levels in different areas of the ship. For example, I'll have one Lifts section in fore of the ship which takes us into the below decks as well as one level up to a maintenance area. Deep aft I'll have another Lifts section leading to further engineering decks and the cargo hold. I also like to use one just behind the bridge as a teleportation devece - not a lift at all! :)

We also have a special kit bash product that turns the Control Room into a Med Bay!

Either as a maintenance crew or, perhaps even an adversary, we round off the Marcoor series with the incredible Marcoor Intel Bot!

Dynamic Character Animation in Daz Studio

A Digital Art Live Experience

Now Available at Daz 3d - a Special new educational course that I've been anxious to share with everyone.

Daz Studio is set up differently than traditional animating software, making it feeling clunky, even unfriendly to folks who are used to animating.

DAZ Studio : Movie Magic

Paul and I are at it again! We thought it would be a Great idea to demonstrate ways to Really perform some Cool Magic with your Daz Studio work, whether it's animated or still.

This is one session you won't want to miss!

There are many ways to build, save and render our Daz 3D scenes.

In Movie Magic we’ll explore workflows for creating specific, separate renders that are purposely made to be melded together into a single, final image.

Whether for you’re making still images OR animations, these practices add Magic by allowing us total freedom over the look of Every element within the scene.

You’ll see how much Faster we can work – how much more we can get done with an efficient workflow.

The additional tools and elements demonstrated are not essential to the course, but shown to inspire creativity in using them. The main things that we will take away from all of this can be achieved with your own library of content assets.
