Lyna 9 HD Character Bundle

Lyna 9 brings sci-fi flair and cyberpunk charisma to Genesis 9. Designed for cinematic storytelling, Lyna’s bundle includes HD textures, cybernetic features, and standout add-ons like the M3D Xyber Vision eye system and dForce Bixie Cut Hair. Her high-tech Dark Web Dive Outfit completes the look with glowing accents and sleek armor details. If you’re crafting futuristic narratives, Lyna’s your go-to lead.

Tip: Pair Lyna 9 HD with Stonemason’s Cyberpunk Kitset to instantly drop her into a world as striking as she is. With over 250 meticulously crafted props—think neon-lit buildings, tangled cables, glowing signage, and grimy street clutter—this kit gives you the ultimate urban sprawl playground. Whether you’re staging a moody alleyway standoff or an epic cityscape chase, the included Neon Core environment, complete with volumetric steam, camera presets, and render-ready settings, makes every frame cinematic.

Smart Enhancing System for Genesis 9

Say goodbye to awkward lower-body poses. The Smart Enhancing System improves realism in seated and cross-legged poses by refining the thighs, buttocks, shins, and groin areas in real time. Designed for Genesis 9, it eliminates distortion and creates natural deformations—especially when characters are in tight or complex positions. Customizable controls and included pose templates make this a must-have for artists seeking flawless anatomical flow in animation and posing.

SkyRay Ultimate: Worlds Builder

Build vivid, multi-style environments in minutes with this expansive update to the SkyRay Worlds series. The SkyRay Ultimate bundle includes 22 modular assets plus 14 positioned combos—everything from cliffs and jettys to bridges, trees, and water features. Fully compatible with previous SkyRay packs, this release also includes 10 ready-made 360° scenes and a dynamic SkyDome with sundial presets to capture the perfect time of day in your world.

URHD Ultimate Pregnancy Bundle for Genesis 9

This three-part Ultimate Pregnancy Bundle gives creators everything they need to depict the beauty and complexity of pregnancy in their work. Featuring detailed morphs, layered textures (like stretchmarks, Linea Nigra, and C-section scars), and a wide selection of maternity props and poses, this set brings a new level of authenticity to character-driven scenes. The HD morphs for breasts, nipples, and navels add even more anatomical nuance, making this a standout for realism-focused artists.

Chloe 9 HD Character Bundle

Athletic, confident, and full of energy, Chloe 9 is a petite powerhouse with HD sculpted muscles and a fresh, sporty aesthetic. The full bundle includes Chloe 9 + Chloe 9 HD Add-On, a stylish updo hairstyle using OmniHair shaders, a denim-and-leather outfit that adds just the right touch of edge, and of course – the perfect workout outfit to hit the gym with. She’s ready for slice-of-life scenes, urban adventures, or active poses that show off her dynamic form.

SY Natural Flush and Farmer Tan for Genesis 9

This unique Natural Flush and Farmer Tan set celebrates the natural variations of the human body with LIE presets for flush, sweat, and tan effects. From sun-kissed shoulders to flushed cheeks and even sandal or ring tan lines, every detail is layered for flexibility and realism. The set supports a variety of skin tones and works great with tattoos, makeup, and other LIE-based overlays. A separate sweat shell adds realism to workout scenes or hot summer days.
