What sold me was their sleeping animations, 2 of the 3 are very similar to how I sleep, so I guess you can say, switching to the race(despite me being a male) felt like I was stepping into myself. ;p

New patch, new crafted gear...waiting on some FC friends to bring me their mats (if you look closely, you can see one of them behind me, lol).

I had exactly the same feeling when I saw her sleeping animations! This is like I sleep too.
My husband says Viera suits me better than Hyur. There is too many signs to put Viera aside anymore (I sipped the potion day one of ShB and did all the first patch as Viera, I was bothered by the lack of hairs and hats but I really liked her....) so I switched back last night ^^

So I will have to post screenshots too now, please look forward to it :p

Yeah, their animations and overall don't give a... attitude I love! I know I usually play a lot of small races Au Ra/Miqo'te ithose are what I am when I am not a viera, but viera's height is perfect. Plus they don't have a stupid tail that clips with EVERYTHING. Before viera I couldn't even play midlander, because of their stupid animations. I started this game and leveled through ARR as a highlander, so I always liked the height, but there was always something off about them for me. Viera would be perfect if SE.... WOULD JUST RELEASE SOME HAIRS!!!

I warned my friends that if they kept begging me to be a lala I'd become a bunny to spite them. My word is my bond.

Now this black soot black dye didn't turn out as good as I would like in bright lighting, it definitely lives up to it's namesake. I have contemplated dying it more of a reddish brown to match the converse laces a bit, but I don't like how it overpowers the top in that color, I would prefer a bit more black overall. Ignore the weapons, they suck.

Stay Viera for awhile I really like yours! Everytime I see yours reminds me a lot of mine and how awesome it is to be one.

I'm a screenshot rookie, but I kept my promise. I'm in love with her <3

All your Viera look beautiful and I couldn't resist to be back.....

Sorry for the spam, I can't get my hand on the spoiler tag x___x

Same! But I keep looking...

New shots, dabbled with the gpose a bit more today.. Tank set, with this top. Steampunk style. Taken in a steampunk setting.

First one perfect shot. In love with this shot, everything is just so right!
https://i.imgur.com/8XAEo6I.png

Love this chocobo photobomb!
https://i.imgur.com/mFpWM0F.png

Currently debating on if that black dye was worth it. The corset is already black, and the set ends up having too much of the color. Oh well!
https://i.imgur.com/7U16Sda.png

Cost me 600k for the top and a single black dye. No, I don't actually buy these tops for stats either, just glam. I think I am getting a bit better at gpose. I wish I could be more precise, I got way too much red, and brightness in the last 2 shots.

Taken during Technical Step.

Jooooooin the Viera bandwagon <3

Been inspired. Made another set. Red Mage WIP. WIP because I can't stand soot black. That color is an abomination, but it'll cost me about 1 million to get actual black for glasses, gloves, top, converse. Theme I had in mind was sort of punk, sort of Harley Quinn due to bottoms and color (red for red mage!). Not the most perfect top for the look, but it has red stitching and fits well enough! More dabbling in gpose.

https://i.imgur.com/FDr0o9R.png

Wish I could find an actual top that would work better. Something more close to what it is inspired by would be my preference, and why I am very hesitant to drop the gil on true black dyes.

I love the glamour, the new sets look great on Viera. And you do a good job with the poses.

If you don't mind, I just want to share some general advices to improve on screenshots (I am not an expert but know a thing or two):

- Definitely try different angles. Full body poses are good, especially to show off glamour, but also try close-ups and from behind. It gives the feel of a professional fotoshoot session (at least imo) and makes the pictures look more alive and not static.

https://i.imgur.com/YF0G4bN.jpg


- Try combining poses with emotions to overwrite the pose's actual emotion. This needs some experimenting, but comes off with interesting results. On many races my favorite is probably /sulk and /simper.

https://i.imgur.com/42et61l.jpg


- As for your issue with colors, not sure if you considered it, but I often edit my screenshots in a program after (just a simple one is plenty enough). There you can adjust colors for examples, like reducing the red hue, to make pictures look warmer or colder or to just clean them up.

https://i.imgur.com/ms1WGtM.jpg


- And working with the other functions of /gpose also improves quality a lot. Like I took my sweet time to try out the lights but it really helps, especially in dark places, to keep your character in the focus and not let it drown in the background.

Great advice, and a beautiful viera to top it off. Good stuff!

Yeah, I want to get more closeups, but I mainly post due to my glamours, so I feel like I am leaving something out if I cut out the glamours. Also, I don't like cutting off myviera's ears, and I have my viera's ears kind of long. :p

I dabbled with image editing like idk 10+ years ago. I was a teen at the time, and it's been... awhile. I do have GIMP 2 on my PC right now though. I really should start practicing again. The games lighting for sure leaves things to be desired, a lot of the time more red lighting is exactly what is needed, but it makes the image too red, and my viera actually has pink hair, so it really shows!

Good tips overall, for even others who may be browsing this thread. :)

Haha, I know what you mean. I had my Viera's ears on shortest and it was still difficult to find angles where they either fit in or a good cut off where it still looked good.

I personally use PhotoFiltre 7, it's free and has enough options for photo editing. Since I also use GShade I don't need to edit too much anyway, just colors, brightness or contrast as I see fit.

I use Paint Shop Pro...well its called something else now. I just sharpen my images.. maybe a bit of soften and itll be just right.

Edit: Corel Paint Shop Pro X9.

Like Churro, I don't mind at all, because I'm always in awe when I see your screenshots ^^
(pardon my rotten English, I'm a french native speaker from Switzerland ; I can perfectiy understand English but I'm not used to write in it since a couple of years, I lack practice !)
I will keep your advices in mind the next time, ty for your imput <3

I've been reading the forum silently since a year and I always enjoy seeing post from you, Aellae, because your characters are always beautiful and your screens are well put together.
Along with Clover shots, they are amazing too....
I finally really like reading Churro's posts, because we show the exact same attitude towards glamour :D I can buy a mogstation outfit just for a pair of shoes / gloves too >.< (and I like to show my entire glam on my screens :p)

To sumarize, it's a pleasure to read you all and to watch your great screens ^^

(aaaaah, side note..... I love Viera face 3 too. I'm always torn between face 2 and 3 T___T)

I am really glad you took the time to write this, Valkyria. And don't worry, your English is perfectly fine! (Just practice more by posting here!)

Also thanks for your compliments! It means a lot that people like my screenshots because gpose is one of the many things I enjoy in FF14. Am glad they are improving the feature more and more, and add even more functions to it.
I definitely also stalk all of the "show your... " threads to get inspired. Or tempted to fantasia...

While I don't like the healing changes of ShB, I do love that they brought in Viera, so here's a few Screenshots of mine. Not the best with Gpose, but I will try to make up with it by having a few drawings of my character, heh.

Thanks! That's fun to hear! I can be really picky about my glamours. A little too picky at times. I don't even continue to wear a lot of the glamours I show off either, I just make them to make them... buuut they've gotta be perfect!

Just testing out my new apartment studio setup. Since I don't have all the amazing glam all of you have (yet), I'm relying on lighting and shader work instead. Still getting the hang of all of this!

Start of Technical Step. Quality is poor, I don't know why other than forgetting to turn off Depth of Field.

Better quality, same shot as above, just different angle. Like how she looks a little happy.
