So i think the reason why it worked well is that the other character has a similar hairstyle. I'll have to try something similar with Yumiko next week.

Finally someone with ACTUAL information and not some useless endless spam wall of mediocre renders.

Thank you for the praise.
I really like Holiday Island, and felt compelled to share some practical information that I had gathered over time about some of the visual elements that go in to creating it. I also really appreciate the Holiday Island fan-created art shared here; and honestly, 'art' is in the eye of the beholder. One person's spam wall of mediocre renders is another person's gallery of creative visual tributes to a great game and its characters.
The benefit of this thread is that there is something of value here for such a wide variety of people, and I'm glad, in particular, that you found my incomplete Holiday Island DAZ asset list to be beneficial to you.

I've also noticed it's difficult to hunt down the actual assets in the threads that combine the art asset listing with the fan art.
After the first few posts it's usually rare to see activity sharing or documenting the identified assets, and instead just the fan art/renders. Though some of us would appreciate something more useful than the mediocre rating you've given, I have a feeling most could greatly improve with lighting adjustments and a denoising pass, but I'm curious if you're seeing something else.
Part of the challenge with this game specifically is that the characters don't appear to simply just be off the shelf Daz models/characters with the addition of a morph or two, with many assets that appear to be imported from other tools.
I've spent quite a bit more time failing to get a Yvette that's anything close in Daz. I have a feeling that I'm being thrown off in my attempts due to something stupidly simple and that I'm overcomplicating. I have a feeling Duckswim knows but may not be free to share.

Duckswim IS Darkhound's right hand duck, and he probably won't give up those secrets, sorry to say.

Do you have headlamp on in the render or is there a really strong light behind the camera? Seems like that environment should have a bit more ambient light and less directional.

Here's a tip Norb. In render settings go to tone mapping and adjust from 13 to 12. If it's too bright go to say 12.5 etc. That should brighten things up.

Gonna just share here in case there's anyone else with interest in both BeatBanger and Holiday Island. While the genre is much different this is a shot at creating a M.I.L.F. $ PMV for Yvette as a BeatBanger mod. Still a bit of work to be done though.

Yeah, I have a longer version of that same song for Yvette that I'm not happy with yet (full song is 3:44 instead of 2:45). I've also been working on one for Amy. Both of them have more animations individually, than the entirety of the staff combined, so putting something together for some of the other favorites may be a bit more challenging.
