HG, Its on the list of things to do. Its in my head. I can spew it out here in the forum if you need help getting started. My wife is starting a new business and Im helping her as well as the forum moderation, Hawkin-Z GraF-X new products and my day gig...oh yea - 2 kids also. Oh yea, My band is working on a new CD so thats in the mix also.. Man - 24hrs isnt enough time for a day! Or, maybe I can just do away with sleep. ;) Yea thats the ticket! Do you have Creature Creator? If so ..Its pretty easy to do. Make the figure in CC. Export or save the figure from CC as a .3DS file (3D Studio MAX). Import the .3DS file into Carrara. Highlight the object in Carrara. Export from Carrara as OBJ. Delete the .3DS object in Carrara. Import the .OBJ file you just Exported into Carrara. I cant remember all the Import settings off the top of my head. I think I bring it in as a single Mesh. Open it up in the Vertex modeler and start selecting body areas and name them. Does that help? If not let me know. Clint I need more caffine!
