💫 FGO Caster Merlin for G9 💫Tier 2 Release

This one was a tricky build — between over 100 pose bones across her suit + hair, it was no small feat to bring into DAZ Studio. Add in tight double-sided geometry, and smoothing became an adventure of its own: merge the verts, and suddenly front faces flipped — fix that, and the back blew out again. Every test became another lesson.

Originally commissioned (before the client backed out at delivery), she sat untouched in my files for months. But I’ve always loved this build — it pushed my rig-to-weighting work forward and shaped how I handle complex meshes today. Plus… she’s adorable.

✨ Features• Genesis 9 reshaped and textured as Merlin from Fate Grand Order• Includes Elf Ears Morph• Full 10-part ensemble• Hair and Skirt rigged with viewport face-group selections enabled• Two Material Presets: – In-game version (with outfit on skin) – Natural skin version• Ears On/Off Morph Presets

📝 Item NoteSmoothing is left enabled by default. If it interferes with certain poses, select the item → Parameters Tab → reduce or disable Smoothing Iterations. Some poses perform better with it off.
