Wrestling Boots 2025 for Genesis 8
Make a new pair of boots for Genesis 8. Used a different method to generate the lace holes this time. Seems to have worked well.Boot is divided into multiple surfaces for quick customizations: eyelet, laces, trim, sole and leather.Providing the UV layout and surface IDs for those willing to do more customizations.Oh,...
Wrestling Outfit Timelapse
Working on a request for a Genesis 8 Female wrestling outfit and saved the video.Had to split them into two to get around the filesize restriction.Next video will be texturing in Substance Painter.
Last Month
Was a bit of a disaster. I really shouldn't complain.But the medical issues linger and a new ... annoyance.I wake up in the morning now and my right hand has zero strength and does hurt when I try to grasp things. Part of me knows I'm getting old and I should be patient whenever there is an injury, but I don&...
Boxing Headgear 2025
An updated version of the headgear from back in 2017. I fit it better to Genesis 8 and then improved the textures while keeping the same UV layout and surfaces.
Recording and Streaming
Using OBS and a virtual camera to test streaming on Discord. Couldn't get desktop music to play, which is annoying but no big deal. The problem is that when I tried to playback the saved recording it was awful. I've never seen such chop in a video before.Which is in total contrast to my one viewer who said i...
Month of October
I guess someone is doing a Fightober or Boxtober so might be time to dust off the boxing gloves and see if I can update them some.I might even try and make gladiatorial-style boxing trunks for Genesis 8, and given the makeup of my audience, I'd focus in on Genesis 8 Female specifically.Someone also asked for the re...
Wrestling Title Belt 2025 for Genesis 8
Made a new mesh for a title belt and trying to get more of a practical experience with weight painting, so working incrementally on items like this. The belt isn't too radical, but the next one(s) might be.Separated it out into two materials: leather and plates.Has 21 bones for posing. UV layout is attached for cu...
Luchador Mask 2025 for Genesis 8 Male
A somewhat simple mask with multiple zones for customization.UV Layout and surface ID map for customizations.
Creating a Bodysuit for Genesis 8 Male
I have a bodysuit created for Genesis 8 Female that I often use as a starting point.This time I decided to make one for Genesis 8 Male and this is a timelapse of making the mesh and unwrapping the UVs.The mesh itself is partially tested and it does work with shaping, though did did require a push modifier and smoothing...
Updated Poses for Genesis 8 Wrestling
To begin with an important change, I've taken them out from the Genesis 8 Male and Female folders and moved them into the generic Genesis 8 folder. Given that they work for both, it was causing potential issues when updating the packs. I had too many confusing nested subfolders, so I'm taking the time to clean...
Fantasy Boots 2025 for Genesis 8
Here they are, for both Genesis 8 Male and Genesis 8 Female. Rather tall boots with posable laces.A number of independent surfaces allows for a good deal of control.Provided the UV layout and Surface ID maps for customizations.
Adding Bones to Items in DAZ Studio
I've decided to create this video to show how I added posable laces to these new laced boots.Originally, I had started to record my screen to create another time-lapse video, but after an initial test of the boots I found them underwhelming and stopped that.I turned around and finished the boots anyways (the lacing...
Genesis 8 Wrestling Poses Resorted
This is a file that contains all of the moves so far that I've made for Genesis 8, sorted into a few folders.Will be posting a few pose packs shortly that use the new folder structure.I also renamed the root folder so it doesn't overwrite the existing folder set if people want to keep it instead.
Modular Crowd 2025 for DAZ Studio
A very simple prop. Contains four different polygon configurations and two sets of five crowd textures. Should give a lot of nice combinations to avoid seeing repetition. Used AI to generate the textures over the last few days and filtered out all the nightmare fuel creations.Each block has 36 polygons. There are f...
Luchadora Outfit 2025 for Genesis 8 Female
Currently configured for La Carnicera.I forgot to zero out the back flap when saving, but there are six configurable bones to allow for posing.Provided the UV layouts and Surface IDs for customizations.
Erica Deville Singlet Outfit Mesh Timelapse
Covers most of the meshing process for the mesh itself. I didn't record the Substance Painter session where the magic really can be found. Shows the creation of the top and singlet. The other objects are pulled from other previous outfits.
Luchadora Outfit Creation Timelapses
So, I've decided to start recording some of these creation sessions now and create timelapse videos. I'm going to try and do it for the entire process, though I might have to cut back on the texturing portion in Substance Painter as I often go down blind alleys and give up on a design and simply restart from ze...
Month of August
Okay, so this is something I've discussed before but now finally going to do. Because this month is going to be rather "Pose Pack" heavy, I'm going to look at addressing a growing problem.Most of those who use my pose packs know what I mean when I say that it's getting a tad lengthy. Ages ago, I d...
Well, isn't this lovely...
... suddenly, Patreon won't let me upload PDFs or ZIPs. Changed browsers even. It will only allow me to upload images (and MP4s) now. I have a second Patreon account and the problems are there as well.They decided to 'improve' the interface two weeks ago so I guess that's where we can expect how this pr...
Iray Server
Well, it works, but not really.The denoiser doesn't work. Not sure why. I'm pretty sure it's not because I hit the VRAM limit on the cards.Was definitely worth a shot and might return to using it at some point.
Wrestling Ring 2025 for DAZ Studio (Updated)
Instead of one large single item, it's broken into parts so things can be easily turned on and off quickly without having to mess around witInstead of one large single item, it's broken into parts so things can be easily turned on and off quickly without having to mess around with surface opacity.I also provide...
