Hmmm... There ***must*** have been some cool new creatures released since October, so I thought I'd bump this up and see if anyone has anything to add. I haven't really been active since last summer due to illness, but I'm feeling much better and I'm modeling again, so I thought I'd share my new WIP. I call it a Mouf:)

cough sandrunner cough achooossoryaachooo

Never quite made it into freestuff yet, but this is Cole Apollo Werewolf (got stuck on the fur - maybe next Haloween)

Ok, that is fab set of creatures you've amassd!  Where did you get the Grey Queen, that is wicked looking!  I'd love to have that in my runtime.

Glad to hear you're feeling better x2000 you've been missed in poser land :D

Stevie the grey Queen is a Sixus1 model, I think it's available at CP.

A lot of toon characters can be modified to play aliens.

As a quick example, here is the 3DZone Toon Ghost with a Sixus1 material from Cthulu. This isn't quite ready to go, but it's not quite the friendly looking character that was originally envisioned anymore. Parent some resized scifi props from other figures and some custom morphs and this toon figure should be able to pass muster as an alien.

Here are some toon figures that, with a little tinkering, would make some interesting aliens:

And the last page.

I forgot to mention that the grey Queen is a discontinued figure, but I posted a query in the old Sixus1 forum and Rebekah allowed me to purchase that and a few of the older characters.  Just post a new query here and maybe somebody at Sixus1 will notice it and respond.

And apologies for the duplicate listing in the second page. That's what happens when I rush.

I've been collecting Poser content for about seven years, but other people have been doing it longer and ought to have even more stuff than I do. My insane efforts to catalog all my content at least makes it easier to see what I have and it allows me to pull out whatever I need when I'm working in Poser.

Unfortunately, a lot of the older content is lost on the net and no longer available. To make matters worse, the haphazard way that readme's were written leaves most of the content unavailable for free redistribution. Website and email addresses aren't listed or, if they're listed, they're no longer valid. The readme doesn't indicate whether or not the freebie can be shared. In most cases, I'd imagine that the author wouldn't mind, but the inability to contact the creator leaves it a moot point.

It would be nice if somebody familiar with copyright law could develop a number of copyright templates, for the different concerns a creator might have with offering free content, so that the content creator doesn't have to try to go it alone. The variety of copyright notices in freebies are frighteningly different from each other. I've read posts where creators thought that allowing commercial usage thought it meant allowing their efforts to be sold and restricted such usage--which had the unintentional side-effect of preventing people from using the content in in a commercial image--which they were okay with. I thought that readme's, that allowed redistribution, would allow usage in images, but somebody in the copyright forum said that the one allowance doesn't allow the other. If the content creator didn't think of adding a statement that commercial image usage was allowed, it's not allowed. Having a number of templates, such as no sales, but commercial images and free redistribution allowed, and so on, would make it easier to have more comprehensive and uniform statements in the readme's. Otherwise, a lot of free content today will be gone tomorrow.

oops my bad! I saw the Grey Alien bundle on CP & assumed the Queen was part of it, had a closer look & it is not a part of it.

**Here are some that I like.  Along the left edge starting at the top.  Beyondbents worm and Scree.  Moving down there is the Sea Serpent LE from DAZ and below that is Teyon's Master Ki. Moving to the right the top of the middle row starts with Content Paradise's Giant Octopus followed by their Gila Monster.  Underneath them are PiSong's toonimal Bat and Vulture.  Starting the top right row is the LilDevil.   I do not have the ReadMe, but it has the look of a Sixus1 figure.  Moving down we have the Ralph and Rita one eyed alien figures by the3dzone and sold at Poser Pros followed by PiSong's toonimal Lemur.  All of PiSong's figures are sold at DAZ.**

if you like the cuter side there is the RalphLing,spawn of Ralph and Rita (included in Poser 7 or free at my site)

I have a grey alien and a demon figure also,but they are commercial so I wont post images in here :0)

The Grey Alien Queen is now a freebie.

Well, the one I'd like to see ... even though it couldn't be used commercially is my favorite alien of all the Puppeteer for Larry Niven's Known Space: Ringworld books.   Here for sample image.  There are a few out there, but none are rigged for Poser or in a Poser importable format.  Rigging would be pretty interesting.  As you probably know, but I'll add for those who don't ... a Puppeteer has 3 legs, 2 necks with "heads", each with a mouth/hand and eye.  The history and culture is so well developed in the books ... I've been intrigued with them since I first read "Ringworld" back in the 70's. 

 
More Greek, Hindu, Asian and other aboriginal mythological creatures would be great to see as Poser Models here as well.  Just ... a suggestion. :)
