Kicking this off...

So I'm starting us off with Joel and Tommy, two of my favs. At the supporter level, you get them each with their patrol outfits (pictured above). If you go extra, you get Joel's hospital, prologue guitar, hero, and museum outfits. For Tommy, you get prologue and farm outfit as well as his farm face.

I've tried to replicate bodies as best I can, going off the cloth meshes. Surprisingly, these guys have very skinny legs. I also baked textures to get all the nooks and crannies as well as stitches, sometimes it works great and sometimes not so great but I still feel like it adds a layer to the renders. I will confess the one real issue I struggle with is the hair color, just using the textures doesn't seem to be enough. I've tweaked and tweaked but still feel I haven't hit that sweet spot. If you decide to support perhaps you can offer some insight :)

Be aware I am fairly new to DAZ, have been messing with it for nearly a year, so I won't have all the answers but I will help any way I can. In my blurb I mention my models aren't perfect, what I mean by that is that these are not native Daz models so there will always be some clipping issues. I try and lesson the sore spots but can't guarantee perfection due to low poly meshes and low res textures. But that shouldn't discourage you. You can still get some amazing renders with your favorite characters. It's a fun program with a lot of great features that give you pretty good results right off the bat.

Well, that's it for post number one. Hope you decide to support. Coming up I have more TLOU2 and some RDR2, starting off with Karen Jones.

Hope to see you around!
