Description
All the working on G3 and now this?
Well...moving Mini-Me to the latest model-generation is something I was planning to do for a while already,
and while trying out some G8 features I just gave it a quick trial, based on MrJx' set-up for the latest version of Mini-me.
It's not done yet, while I am surprised how close that really quick sketch already comes,
and I just love the great facial features of the Generation 8 characters!
MrJx is on the road today (yeah, out there, where the Zombies are! 
And you can join the journey, if you like 
Have fun, folks, be safe
and feel loved!

Ha...I just checked that folder and realized how empty it is!
There were many more pictures in it, but I guess the folders once got messed up, when I put stuff in storage and back and then had a period of "non core membership", where folders are messed up anyway.
Have to check for the rest of that stuff and put it back...
Regarding No 5...
that will be tricky, really.
I have to check which versions I have available for DAZ Studio, as I was working with Carrara for a long time, particularly with previous Mini-Me versions.
Will be fun to do a deep dive into old back-up drives! 
However, even if I only use available versions the picture will be quite populated
I mean,...here we have already three:

Yes, I remembered that picture when the idea occurred to me. Speaking of pictures, versions of Mini-you can also appear in the picture in a picture. In fact, determining how many Mini-you there are could become a challenge for the followers.
I think the scene will be a lot of fun, and looking forward to it.

Okay....so, only after a month I am back at this
I'll check what I can find...and #5 will be the first thing I am going to work on

Grand, and it's good to hear from you!

G8 looks great and I think you can handle the finishing touches. I myself am still hesitating.

It's the facial features that convinced me in the end

Wow, my kind of woman... love the look!

This is my favorite of your recent testing, as far as the body is concerned. I'm not familiar with the face but it may come as I see more of that model, but the possibility to create and play with subtle expressions seems to be there.

The more I look at it the more it becomes my favorite too, even if it's far from being finished.
It's mainly the facial features that I like the most too, and also some body details that are more believable.

Looks promising. I agree.
When moving model, it is important to check if the new model actually offers new possibilities and ease of work.
As for the result here, it is not bad at all, as you say.

Thank you
G8 has some great small details that you only notice at second sight, but that make a great difference in the overall impression/expression a character has.
It's the facial features, mainly. But also some parts of the body and the limbs that seems to be worth the effort of the transfer.

Only because it's not finished yet

Das "Spanisch" heißt nur, dass ich für das Modell eine neue Software benutze

Oh I thought your character was G8 all this time.. I love this new version, though it is strikingly similar to the previous "you" which would make sense. I just love the distinct nature of your face, it goes so perfectly with your incredibly unique mind. So you made this face and body with morphs?
I am always so curious how close to the real you, do you feel your character is? Is it more of an idealized version of how you'd like to look, or is it closer to the real real you? The 3D selfies I've made (1 in Daz, 1 with Zbrush) I tried to make as close to myself as I could, but it ends up being still slightly idealized without intending, with slightly larger muscles and a slightly larger bit of "manhood"
The body is so nicely done, I think it looks amazing and such wonderful natural realism to it. The shape of the breasts is so naturally perfect, the neck and collar bones look ideally real, and your stomach/knees/feet are probably my favorite part I can see so much realistic detail, and as skinny as you are there is still a lovely natural touch of softness on the belly and waist. And wow your arms look ripped like you've been putting in some work doing bicep curls and tricep extensions regularly. This is easily one of my favorite 3D selfie models I've seen around anywhere. Can't wait to see her/you in your future adventures
(sorry for the essay, I tried to keep it short but couldn't help myself hehe)

Thank you for the essay!
I like that, really
Mini-Me is pretty close to the real me, while some details - some smaller, some larger - are not there yet.
Hand are too large, arms a bit too thick, my trapezius isn't just as defined (even though I am working out for almost 30 and swimming for more than 10 years now) hips a bit too narrow, lips don't have the final shape yet (need to be a bit smaller)...
I've always been a bean-pole, really, and only in the last year I gained some pounds that seem to stay eventually.
So, there's some insulation now covering the sharp-edge bones!
Overall, this version is the one that feels the closest to me with all the nice details that make Mini-Me look as old as I actually am
And I'm looking forward to work on and with her

Being recently passed to G8 myself, I can only support the decision.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yep...I'm glad I started the process, because the result looks quite promising already.
G8 has some great features, really.
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
Well, let's just say that there's a reason why my renders are G8 only. 
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you
I'm glad I finally started with that process.
And guess why: I tried the Powerpose feature on a G8 character
(it was you, with whom I was talking about that, right? )
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, you were. I'm glad that I could encourage you to give it a try.
As you already noticed, the G8 face rigging allows for a wonderful range of subtle expressions.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Yes, the G8 facial features and some details on the body were convincing me to give it a try
So, thanks for pushing!

Gen8 ist echt nciht schlecht, Gefällt mir jetzt auch von allen am besten.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Mir irgendwie auch.
Ich dachte immer der Unterschied zwischen G3 und G8 wäre nicht so dramatisch, aber es sind viele kleine Details, die das Gesamtbild wirklich verbessern!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Kommt natürlich auch drauf an, wie viele Morphs man zusätzlich hat.
Ich hatte mich schon recht gut mit G3 eingerichtet, trotzdem bietet G8 schon noch mehr.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Gut ist, dass ich in G3 so ziemlich alles an Morphs reingequetscht habe was geht.
Jetzt weiß ich was ich brauche, und was ich ewig nicht angerührt habe.
Da kann ich bei der Neuausstattung für G8 ein bisschen sparen
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Das hab ich auch, nur gab's immer nicht alles für G8. Und bei einigen Figuren ist es fast unmöglich sie 'umzuziehen' weil so viel selbst gebaut, die bleiben G3.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Ja, ich merke gerade, dass es alles andere als einfach wird.
Beim Körper mach ich mir nicht so viele Gedanken. Wenn der ein bisschen anders aussieht, ist das halt so.
Aber irgendwie sind die Köpfe von G3 und G8 doch ziemlich unterschiedlich!
Trotz der gleichen Morphs kann ich die Einstellungen nicht 1:1 übernehmen....
Das wird knifflig

Es gibt zwar ganz passable Converter, ich habe aber nur den von M4 auf Gen3, mit dem hab ich einige meiner wichtigeren Chars die noch älter sind, umgezogen, jetzt überlage ich selbst ob ich nicht wenigstens ein paar der eichtigeren auf 8 umsiedle, einfach weil es die besseren und cooleren Klamotten gibt (und der Converter für Klamotten von 8 auf 3 nicht so gute resultate bringt...). Naja, mal sehen.
Jetzt schau ich erstmal zu, was du machst. Aber nachdem ich dein Mini-Me nicht soo gut kenne wie du fallen mir nur ganz wenige Unterschiede auf. Aber man selbst ist da immer viel kritischer, das weiß ich auch.
