Expression References (Pt. 1)

Here is the first part of two! I will be doing another pair of packs in the future that has different angles like looking up and down.

Expressions can look a little unrealistic in Daz at times, so that's just something to keep in mind. The second row of this set hopefully shows you what I mean! It is only obvious in some of the expressions, as I tried to keep the exaggeration to a minimum.

Poll for May's Mini Reference Pack

We are still working through all of your suggestions! If you have other suggestions, please leave a comment down below. 

The first of two expression packs will be posted in about a week. 🤍

April's Mini Reference Pack! (2021)

Couples won the poll again, so here is another set of references for all of you. I will be taking a break from this theme for the time being, but rest assured, there will be a lot more of it in the future. 🤍

The packs for April will be...expressions!

March Hand References (Pt. 2)

As promised, the second part of the hand references! This pack contains two angles; the back and outer sides of the hand. Here is a link to the first part if you missed it, which had the inner and palm side (Part 1 is for Patrons only) 👏

Included in this pack is a small set of hands holding various simplified objects:

March Hand References (Pt.1)

I wanted to make another batch of hand references with detailing like wrinkles and better lighting, so here they are! I did run into a few issues though, so let me explain.

There are no reference sheets for these sets. Because I had to hide the rest of the body from the camera, I can only rotate the arm so far at certain angles. This means there is an uneven amount of references for those angles, so to compensate for that I tried to give you a lot more than last time.  2021-03-15 14:51:15 +0000 UTC View Post

Poll for April's Mini Reference Pack

The mini pack, as always, will be posted right at the beginning of every month. You can also comment below with more suggestions that I can add to my list!

The first of two hand reference packs will be posted in about a week. ✌️

March's Mini Reference Pack! (2021)

Despite the size, I gave the pack as much pose variety as I could, but there will be many more Mage and Magic Caster references to come, especially in the big D&D packs I have planned!

This Month's theme is realistic hands, and I will try to include some of your suggestions (like holding various objects) in both packs. ✌

Couples References Pt. 2

I tried to keep the theme of the pose pack from earlier in the month, but I did make some changes to the models and use a new lighting setup. There are 7 poses for each pair!

I do have to note that the size of one of the models changes in a few poses. I guess that it has to do with how the pose presets were saved, but I decided to leave it in as-is. This is probably the most obvious example of it:

(Request) Hair References

This was requested a while back and I finally had enough hairstyles to put a pack together. These were all made by different people and have different movement and color controls, so some will have more reference angles than others! 

For example, this blunt Bob had a lot of motion options...

I added a new option in! I will also be posting another pack in about a week. 🙏

Resources for learning Daz3D

Daz can be a little intimidating at first, so I tried to find things that explain it as simply as possible, and similarly to how I use it to make references. I will add this post to the Reference FAQ and try to keep it updated.

February's Mini Reference Pack! (2021)

Just in time for Valentine's Day, here are 12 couple poses! They turned out really cute. 🤍

(2021) Buff References Pt. 2

This pack contains all sword fighting poses, including a small set with dramatic lighting and dynamic camera angles. There are 210 images + the 21 reference sheets in a zip file attached below!

I do want to note that the arms, and the armpits in particular, will look a little weird on a few of these poses. There are limitations in how far you can push a pose in DA...

Poll for February's 3rd Ref Pack

Thank you so much for all of the responses! I got a lot more than I was expecting, but I should be able to do most of them. Some of the suggestions were already planned and will be in bigger packs (like more DnD references) and the others will be put onto the poll in pairs according to how many likes they received. Doing two at a time will leave room for the options I mentioned in the previous post! 

It will of course take me some time to work through everything...

(2021) Buff References Pt. 1

The first pack of the New Year! I really wanted to update the Buff reference that I made in early  2020, so here is part one of that. I purchased a scarred Viking model specifically for these, but I also decided to make two other models; one leaner, and one older to add variety. 

The main theme is sword fighting, and I will try to include a couple of sets of them fighting each other and some other dynamic shots in the second pack!

Suggestions for February's 3rd Pack!

Before you leave a comment below, let me explain how this pack will work:

• As with all of my references, I'm limited by the 3D assets I can purchase and/or make. I will, however, write down every suggestion and hopefully be able to make reference of it in the future!
  
  
• This pack will always be smaller than the regular packs, but I would like for them to be at least 100 images.
  
  
• Except for the first poll, there will be two options t...

Horse & Rider Pt. 2

Happy Holidays, everyone (and a Merry Christmas to those who celebrate it) here is the second part of the horse references for this month! I managed to squeeze everything into a single zip folder this time. 

I have included a set of close-ups and different angles for the horse that can hopefully be useful.

Horse & Rider References (Pt. 1)

Here is the first part of the horse references! I wanted to put some color into the lighting this time, and used two different models together with the horse to bring in some variety. 

I had planned to put in the mane and tail for these references, but my computer couldn't handle the dynamic rendering so I will have to make more in the future. Apologies!

200 Floor Poses (pt. 2)

It's #thankyoupatrons day, so I thought I would post the second part of this month's references a little earlier! I really can't thank all of you enough, because your support has made it possible for me to keep making references, including free packs like this for those that can't afford to become a patron. 

There are 20 poses with 10 angles ...

Renovations are (almost) complete!

I decided not to redo the header or the icon other than to adjust the colors since I still like them, but I went ahead and made new drawings for both tiers! I tried to stay on theme with the whole vintage, slightly morbid aesthetic. 

I also made a trio of skulls to replace this:

250 Floor Pose References (pt. 1)

Here is part 1 of the floor poses! I accidentally made these larger than I usually do, so I had to split them into 2 zip files. There are 25 poses with a rotation of 10 angles each! As always I have included a set of reference sheets to make studying easier. 

A reminder of upcoming reference packs:

December - Horse & Rider

January - A Secret 🤫

February - Hairstyles

March - More Hands  2020-11-10 19:27:50 +0000 UTC View Post
