some shots of the Heavy Horse rendered in poser (composited, but not retouched.) the latest project is: ta-da! the Heavy Horse. now i know what you're saying. you're saying, 'are you nuts? poser already HAS a horse!' and the poser horse, and its accessories and morphs and variations may be adequate for all your needs. but i wanted to do a really buff, really BIG heavy horse. :) this horse has a fully articulated head, with posable eyes, eyelids, ears, and jaw. the nostrils, lips, and tongue also morph. (see lower right.) ___ the eye is highly detailed, with morphable pupil, and a clear cornea (poser 4 only). (see lower left.) i also discovered a nice formula for black skinned horses. :) (there's no textures yet.) ___ the horse is bald, actually. there's several manes and tails you can put on it. these pics show the regular mane, and the top horse also has the docked tail, and the big fetlocks. the texture/trans on the hind fetlocks needs to be adjusted. the manes and fetlocks are conformable. ___ the harness is the one i created for the poser horse, sized to fit the Heavy Horse. it is conformable, as well. you may notice the lower strap not fitting around the thigh just right. this has been fixed. Heavy Horse is due out later this month. more info and pics at the 3dm site. :)

Looks cool so far.

Cool. Looks like I'll need to make a budweiser wagon. ScottA

Neat - a Budweiser factor... er Clydsedale! :-)

This looks really great, Bloodsong. I really love your animal models...

Looks cool an hot to me. Drinking a Bud Ice. Ron

Looks like you could use this to make a Morgan as well as a clydesdale. And what about a percheron?

Geez, Bloodsong. Like...wowsers! Does your creativity ever end? We hope not! :)

heyas; no, varian... not til i'm dead, anyways. ;) i have plans to put together some stock horse cr2s: shire, clydesdale, percheron, and friesian. i have to do the various pieces, morphs, and of course the texture maps... oh, i forgot... i still need somebody with p3 to do compatibility tests and/or conversions. anybody out there...???

It looks Great! Last time I saw one with that look on its face the vet was removing something from the other end. Might lessen up a bit on the feathers. What books you using for the design details?
