Thanks Daz 3d!!!
Finding Daz 3d in my early years of all of this was a real godsend! Not only have they always had content of the highest quality, but also the most amazing prices - an odd, but welcome combination!
I've been a Platinum Club member right from the start and, it wasn't until I decided to let that membership lapse before I realized how much that saved me in building my library. Wow, what a difference! The still have incredibly competitive pricing, but the PC+ really changes the game in a Big way!
...a forum post I made during the Christmas Giveaway at Daz 3d in 2016:
Just recently the huge Platinum Club Plus giveaways and super-low deals filled around three whole pages in my Daz 3d account Product Library - all really great stuff too!
I'm one who has always been a Daz 3d fan - ever since I've learned of their existence. So I have a whole lot of favorites that date back to their earliest of years. Owning Carrara really expanded that as well. Even if an older item just comes with basic colors that might look a little weird on its own can become something absolutely wonderful in this gem of a 3D studio - truly.
Saying that, I've been afraid to turn on any shopping filters during this whole PC+ Giveaway thing - scared that I might miss something really cool!
I've got stuff for Genesis (1, 2, 3 and 8), V4, M4 and Mil Dragon and Dragon 3, as well as a bunch of other really great things. It's so darned exciting for me to be able to do this stuff!
How many times have I gone right past Nybras - not taking a close enough look to see how truly awesome he is. Yes, I have the mighty Demonecornuto, by Predatron and a cool Demon for Genesis by RAWART. But there's always room for a new demon in my runtime - and now I find out that Nybras is so much more than I've ever imagined - getting him for Free! Did you know that Nybras can turn into a Dragon with the turn of a dial?
Nybras Expansion includes two ultra-high resolution textures with bump and displacement maps, 22 action poses, 71 head morphs and 31 body morphs.
Dragon 3 is really cool - got some awesome stuff for him. That'll never replace my Mil Dragon 2 that I love so much - got some cool stuff for him too and grabbed the Wyvern 2.0 as well, but the new dragon is a welcome new addition - such an amazing figure! Castles, vehicles, Sci Fi environmental and control props...
Man! A lot of cool stuff already!
Thank You Daz3d and all artists involved in all of this!
I wrote the words a while ago and nothing has changed. My library has been growing like crazy thanks to Daz 3d, their PC+ and their Premier Artists. Let's take a look at some of this incredible gear, shall we?

Have a Question? Just Ask!
I love to help others as best I can. This is a rather broad topic: CG Filmmaking, so my articles on any particular topic may not answer your specific question.
Most of the questions directed to me are regarding Carrara or How did I do this?
For these sorts of things, post your question at the Carrara Discussion Forum (or another appropriate category) at Daz 3D.com forums, and if I don't see it right away, someone else might. They are such a friendly and helpful bunch! I've learned so much from that forum over the years!
For a more immediate question directed to me, log into those forums and Send me a PM!
and support this site at the same time!!! :) Thanks!!! :)

PC+ Cloth Frenzy - I've only just started this page. Since I started using VWD and removing rigging from figures so that I can add/delete polygons, change domains, etc., stuff in the low-price range in the PC+ catalog looks great and is fun to model with! I am working on a tutorial on how I make the clothing into static prop objects and then model them to fit the morphed figure, then run them through VWD as if using them as conforming clothes. It's really neat!
