HOOPS [Commercial]

Marshian

My brother and I created this prop set, it is our first DAZ Studio collaboration. Enjoy!

Variety of hoops built and textured for DAZ Studio. Nine uniquely styled hoops for play, fight and performance. Multiple styles include: steampunk carnivals, science fiction adventure, spinning fire shows, all-out raves, barbarian brawls and a sunny day at the park. Putting on a show for your King and the royal court? Need something to do in that new bikini? Fighting off a band of mutants? Slicing your way through a space station? They are easy to pose with multiple options and plenty of styles to match any mood. These highly styled and detailed props are all about fun, the clean, the dirty and the somewhere in between.

Bonus! 16 tiled shaders are included that can be used on other props.

Main Features:

Two fire hoops, a torch hoop, and an LED hoop load with lights
The ring of fire can be used by itself with no hoop
The hoops with transmapped surfaces are optimized for quicker rendering
Material settings are included to reset textures
The hoops are loaded with detail for close-up renders especially the high poly vertebrae hoop
Many hoops load with grouped/parented parts, lights, and multiple surface zones for a wide variety of customization
Just about any dance, pinup or fighting pose will compliment a hoop some where on the body

I want you to know I thought this was a really inspired product! Some killer promo images too!

Thanks so much Khory! I sometimes question the amount of time I put into those promo images but I do enjoy it so. My goal is to create images that will still look great and be inspiring people months/years from now.

I think the one with the fire is amazing. Just the right amount of drama and freaky.

Included in this set are the fireballs with lights that can be used as a separate prop.

Here is an example of the bone shader/material. One of the 16 shaders included.

I hate to sound like one of "those" people but has anybody tried to make Poser companion files for it. I think It is awesome and I'd like to use it but I know some stuff converts well and some doesn't well or at all.

Glad you like it! A Poser version of this set will depend on how well it sells. My brother and I are proud of this set and it's doing well so far.

Here's a render of the fire hoop as a halo. Since I scaled the hoop down to 33% I had to turn down displacement.
Just a helpful tip.

Here is the LED Hoop scaled down to a necklace.
This scene also uses a preset from Light Up The Dark

Just as the displacement needed to be turned down when the fire hoop was reduced in size, this prop uses point lights that had to be turned down to 1%.
