To MIKEJ and WOLF359: The Apollo Maximus figure is not what you describe - as a static figure that get's warped unnaturally beyond it's design limitations - it's DESIGNED to be a polymorphic seed figure for multiple forms. It cannot be compared to the Victoria male figures in that regard.

Well I'm not going to argue with you on the technicalities of the Apollo Maximus mesh, since I don't think I have it, but I was speaking in more general terms. It may very well be that it was designed to be many different figures, but I don't care what the mesh is like, if you deform it too much in any direction you will have texture stretching/pinching/warping and you will change the poly flow in ways that could negatively affect its joints.

Nothing that can't be fixed mostly by someone who knows wshat he's doing, but I did also mention the "average point'n'click" Poser user. Most have no idea how to deal with the myriad of problems that can result from over morphing, and don't even notice there's a problem. One quick look through the Poser gallery on any given day will prove that. ;-)
