thanks, the IBL is really fantastic I don't expected this will works this way.. I just render now animation to see how this looks like.... here one of the animation frame with the new James head textures I made... More tomorrow :) Thanks to your all for the nice comments !!!! Cath

Holy [censored!] that is some amazing work there.

Cath, thank you for your efforts in showing us guys who dont have P6 yet, what it can do. But can we see the effect of the lighting without specular and shadowing on the origonal image you projected. One thing I really cant stand is when the sheen is panted onto a texture as I have purchased several sets which have the specular on the colour maps which is pointless, as it will never dissapear! Another problem is when merchants have contours on the skin, which when the object is rotated dont look right from the side as the geometry does not match. Each time this happens I feel cheated as I could have projected any texture of myself on from the front and it look great and perfectly realistic, Please dont take this badly but I find it is very hard to tell what exactly poser is contributing to your maps. But I really like the look of the character, will you be selling it as a pac when finished?

He looks really cool :)

Totally cool...you're doing a terrific job with this, and I'm learning from your posts even without having Poser 6 yet!

dagmath , no highlights are not painted ... see the last image I used only color without specular and bumps.. the package as free to download from ym website tomorrow.. I have to finish only the hands.. I will upload scene with light + the Poser6 casual james character with new text.head and hands textures... that is all!! I will create also in the future commercial textures for james because he is excellent.. but for tomorrow I plan only to share with you some excellent free stuff and nothing more :) he will looks from all angles great.. I render now animation so you can see how great it looks in IBL AO :)

Fantastic work, as always!

You need to blur your background image of the house just a little tiny bit to get some depth of field in there, otherwise fantastic work gurl:)

Wow - James looks awesome. Thanks for the tips and for freebies. Looking forward to them. :o) Carol

Catharina, I'm glad to see your amazing work again on the Renderosity forum!!!! I have your V3 textures- that were available a few years ago on your old website (before the great crash). I think there was at least one more I'd wanted to buy- but your site went down just before I had the chance. I was doing render tests and animations in Lightwave with radiosity rendering and your textures were unrivaled. Do you stll have them all? I can email you all the ones I have if not. Eric

 Does anyone have this texture? I would love to have it. Or was it even released?

I dunno but clicking on Mec4D's FreeStuff link doesn't take us to anything free that I can see. This is an OLD thread though.

Wow. He is going to be stunning once you are done with him :)
