OMG It's the Buffinator! Beautiful job, WTB.

Nice job!! Knew who it was even without the photo!

Great job. Her nose is a tough one to do.

Thanks. Looking again I see: Unheart the face a touch Less crazy on the eyes wide negative value

Funny thing: Her nose is actually the easiest part. Having done her about 50 times now, the nose is always the starting point, and I know right where to put the magnets lol. V3 morphs make it fairly easy to finally get the nose bridge correct. It's just a matter of those G*****ed eyebrows now. -WTB

your lips are too full and the top lip needs more roundness...

It may just be the photo, but the tops of her eyes are just slightly more rounded, I think....they open up enough that they hide most of her eyelids, excepting the inner corners. I think :)

I think the face needs to be maybe a little longer, and the chin less pointy. The nose looks great .. but I think she got crosseyed from checking it :) hmmm..... I've got a good v3 Spike coming along .... (creepy I know, but it works)

Hah! I am also working on a V3 Spike! I hope yours is better than mine lol -WTB

And here I was feeling all depressed because I heard today that SMG's contract is up this year.... :( And then there's a new episode on TV and I hear you two are working on V3 versions of my two favorite cast members.....cool :))) BTW, WTB (?!) your previous Spike morph perished in my Great Mailbox Disaster, so I'm really wishing you guys great modeling luck this time around ;)

He's really difficult to morph. I mean really. Every time you think you've captured a certain feature, you realize that feature is dependant on another, then you fix that and everything else is ruined in the process. Then you finally have it, right? But it just doesn't look like him. I hope Lyrra's version is good, because I'm almost done trying. Plus, there are so few source photos for JM that are useful for morph making purposes. -WTB

I think the face is too broad it needs to be thinner and longer

Aw crap, closer look says gained in some areas, lost in others.

second one kinda looks like daryll hanna (sp?) now...

Well I actually was goofing around with the V3 male morphs and got something very close to Spike ... wasn't trying. I'll have to go and give it a proper job if you're giving up :) BTW if you have lost your old m2 Spike morph, and say its ok I can send a copy to Patricia ...

It's okay if she wants it. Personally, I think it's horrible lol. -WTB

I'd love to have it to play with while you work on the new ones. Thank you both :) I'm not much of a morpher yet, but I did a lot of photo-realistic portraits back in my painting days and I know exactly what you're talking about, WTB. Even when I would give up and varnish the painting, and folks would tell me how it looked 'exactly' like the model, I could still see new flaws everytime I had to look at the piece...! Couldn't wait to sell each one, for that and other rea$on$ ;) On Buffy, next I'd try to get back that more delicate, pointier chin you had on the first one posted above. The face length was definitely closer in that one.

Ah-ha, SMG's contract is up - no wonder all the Slayers-In-Training, hints about Dawn and even a mention of Faith! I'm still trying to figure out what happened to Joss's "Firefly" - maybe I was the only one who liked all those strange characers and typical Joss humor? As to Spike, lots of us saw that first pic of Don and saw a strong resemblance.

Two words: "WOW and When? :)

Well...that's a good question. I'd like to get a few more characters in the can... Then, I'm looking at a character megapack for sale in the marketplace. The only reason I would be selling it is because I don't want to deal with the issue of it being hosted properly and continuously, with stability. I don't want 1000 IM's saying "I can't get it". So, cost will be cheap and quality high. All characters will not be Buffy related, and the whole package will be called something innocuous for the sake of copyright. All morphs will be called ambiguous names, and all likenesses will be "coincidental" if that satisfies all the haters out there. As for when, well, probably within the next month or two. Sound reasonable? -WTB

I ran into the same eyebrow problem. Your eyes are bang on, I just couldn't get them right and you got the nose perfect, I have to use a bit of postwork to help there.

Look forward to when it's available.

Lovely job on the painted hair! And her skin is luminous.

I would be curious what would happen if we 50/50'd our two morphs? There are elements in yours that are better than mine, and vice versa. Both are, IMHO, excellent and valid renditions filtered through the eyes of two individuals. When all is said and done, this is no easy task, trying to get an exact likeness (without the aid of laser-scanning and the actual person!) -WTB

A hybrid would be interesting. There is probably a huge benefit of having two peoples interpretaion. Yours is certainly the more accurate morph (I seem to have a stylised approach to characters). I would also be interested in if you had any sucess with her ears, SMG's are very distinctive and I had no luck with V3's morphs. This the first attempt at a physical likeness and I'm pretty impressed by the morphing capabilities of V3 (eyebrows aside). Buffy is a subject that I've wanted to try for some time being a huge fan of the show.

Err, no offense WTB, but even though your morph is more accurate, Rogue's version looks much much cuter as it is right now. Just do me a favor RogueElement: 1) if you're selling it, please don't make it exclusive to R'osity 2) if you're giving it away in Free Stuff, I would be quite in your debt. /P

It you want to do it as a free item I would be more than happy to host it. My server can handle the massive downloading that a file of this nature would recieve. IM me if this would be something you would be interested in so I can send you the ftp information.

Thanks for the offer ivyroses, WTB has already said he plans to make his commercialy available, I can't help feeling I would be being a bit rude if I distribute a simular morph it as he started the thread. And WTB's morph is the better one.

Rogue, let's combine our morphs and see what comes out? If a hybrid builds a better buffy, then we can release the final outcome as a joint project for free. I'm really not interested in the money, only in having a trouble-free host. -WTB

Sure! sounds the way to go to me.

Did you get my email, Rogue?

Yep! Please bear in mind that I'm a Brit, so in a different timeframe. Please also refrain from mentioning anything regarding season 7, we haven't got that far yet!

Rogue... any chance of sending the Buffystuffy my way? ^_^
