I'm having a real problem deciding on my alien race for a project. I'd love to use Phibian from Sixus1 but there are absolutely no clothes for him. Nada. Not being a modeler I'm not going to be able to whip up something on my own.

But on the other hand, I can't find any cool aquatic-esque aliens that fit what I need. A race of rugged aliens that seem amiable and yet can do slave labor. Nice huh? I looked into maybe using The Freak or some other morphs but everything looks a bit too human.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

You might use M3 with the Universal Alien Pack by Ghost of Macbeth at DAZ. One of the morphs looks particularly aquatic and M3 has more clothes than any male figure that I know of, except maybe M2. It may be too human for your needs, however. Good luck and I hope it helps! Jay

Maybe check out blondie9999's Sci-Fi/Fantasy Morphs for Michael 3, too.

Jay - I agree GhostofMacbeth's morphs are great. So good in fact that one of the morphs is my main character. :) The other morph pack looks good but I'm worried it will turn too "Star Trekkie" where every alien in the universe is really a mutated human. But i think maybe the combo of morphs may work. Thanks.

I have yet to see one that looks like an authentic grey alien.

Everybody wants to add their personal touches. They try to make them look too human. They are not humans.

to whip out and show and tell. The aliens for download are real enough for folks to make fictional scenes, but for somebody to illustrate actual documented encounters they come up far short. When my organic modeling skills are up to snuff, I plan to do a realistic grey alien as well as a bigfoot, and moth man. But we all know they are not real either don't we?

We had a hard time creating creatures that are so permeated into our culture and media...not for lack of 'documentation' but due to an over-abundance of conflicting descriptions. There is room in the Poser universe for many different interpretations, can't wait to see yours. :) --Rebekah--


Khai ( ) posted Tue, 07 June 2005 at 1:38 AM

then whats the problem? how do they come up short? I've studied "actual encounters" and you know, there is no one "grey" .. no one can agree if they are tall, short, fat, thin, grey, green, 3 fingers, 5 fingers.. but they do agree on 2 legs, 2 arms, 1 head, 2 eyes. anything else is up for debate...

It is obvious that I have a different "view" of aliens than you do. 3.5 feet tall, grey skin, no genitalia, large dark eyes, large head, nose slits and mouth slits, no teeth, no ears, three fingers on each hand. Skinny build with long skinny neck and no obvious musclature. Rebekah I will make sure you see my alien when it is done. Thank you for all the freebies you guys put out. I really do realize how much work it is and do not mean to slag.

yup I do.. since you've described a humanized alien. to quote you "They try to make them look too human. They are not humans." yet you are looking for exactly what you don't want? we don't know what aliens look like. development is a factor of enviroment. what you've described is perfect for a world like ours.. but the chances of evolving that are a few billion to one. truely an alien would be alien. hell there's a good chance we won't even recognise it as alive and walk on past it..

Hey UVDAN The alien can be sized down shorter by scaling the body. The Teeth and tongue were added to this last version by requests, and can be hidden (select the body part, key CTRL-I and uncheck visible and casts shadows). The muscles are painted on the texture and can gotten rid of with an alternate map or shader. the Grey alien is one of the few things that we didn't put gentials on. The nose and ears are optional morphs. And our Alien only has three fingers. My point is that there are many different reports about the 'common aliens' with different descriptions. We have to offer some options. I even got a request for a female morph for the alien! It is hard to capture everyone's vision. That is what is soooooo hard about doing something of this nature. Anyway, I didn't think that you were ripping into us, I know that you were expressing a frustration. Once again, good luck. --Rebekah--

well...here is the final look of the alien i need. With Stonemasons Free sci-fi wall. Shard Weapons and Accessories by Davorama and Orion-735 by Luthbel. Of course texture by JimH - orcadesignstudios and morphs by Blondie9999. More toad like than aquatic but does what i need him to do and I think he looks pretty cool


sixus1 ( ) posted Tue, 07 June 2005 at 1:06 PM

Very nifty. :) Sorry that we never go to the Phibian clothing in time for you. :( --Rebekah--


Garic ( ) posted Tue, 07 June 2005 at 1:35 PM

Don't worry Rebekah. As soon as they come I'll have alot of use for it. Phibian is still my favorite :)
