Pic 165: Day 2 Places on the Island

 This week I'm focusing on 3 locations you can go to on the island on Day 2. The first is a taco stand. Same set as the original, just HDRI lit, and Ariane wearing different clothes.

 There are 3 different versions of this meal. The casual day 2 outfit, the wet hair and swimsuit version, and the nude version on day 3, which I'll save for later. I bought a bunch of food props on Daz that included soft shell tacos that fall apart as you eat them, so I used them here.

A little trick you can do in Daz: The Ariane character is wearing all 3 outfits at the same time. I can just show and hide the components and make some minor adjustments.

 I managed to move the whole old aviary set to Daz, including the birds which weren't built for Daz. There are versions that do work with Daz, but they were sold on an old website that doesn't exist anymore. All the assets got moved to Renderosity, but I would have to repurchase them. Decided to just use the broken Poser versions, and fix them in post. The Aviary guy is the same old Michael 4 character. I attempted to make a Daz version, but I don't have the wardrobe to do it, and I like the looks of the original. Not the first "old" character I didn't change, I kept the old Ronald Ellison on the yacht, too.

 Bought a Casino set on Daz for super cheap and it looks way better than the old one I used. In fact it looks just like the casino from Tlaero and Mortze's "Finding Miranda" and several other games. It's a good model. I replaced the Croupier with a male character that looks suspiciously like John Cena, but the character comes with a nice suit, so he got the job. Also had to change the Roulette table to French version.

Ariane in Paradise 1.98 Coming This Weekend

Just finished the sailboat pictures which I'll share next week, but after I make sure it plays OK, I'll be releasing it this weekend most likely tomorrow for Daters and above.
