Good God, Bill, that's INCREDIBLE! I was planning on trying to come up with some morphs for the bass, so maybe I'll get at it. What I lack in modeling, I'd like to think I can make up for in morphing, and with Rhino it's so unbelievably easy for many things. I was just reading a new morph tutorial of Travelers' that explains using the Rhino command, "flow" (along curve) to alter large sections of a mesh in a very predictable way, easily, so this might make working on the bass easier. And this picture of yours' here gives me some good ideas, both for texturing and morphing. I have to say I'm HIGHLY disappointed with Zygote's texture for it, particularly in the maxillae. As for what kind it is, I would say a largemouth fresh water bass is what they were trying for, what with the stripe down its' side, but I have no idea what they were thinking when they made that texture, again, particularly the mouth and eyes. Oh yeah, and they didn't bother to give it any scales, either!
