I'm trying to make a figure replacing the torso of a cartoon figure with a light bulb.

Tried doing a replace body part with prop but it didn't work well.  the light bulb I used had 2 parts and the glass bulb part wouldn't resize.

Does anyone have a good light bulb that might work better and suggestions for doing this?

Thanks,

how abour a composite figure ?   if you have the Daz Emotiguy you can hide the body, leaving the hands and feet. Parent your lightbulb to the emotiguy body so the parts will stay together .

Oh, that's a good idea.  I'll give it a try.

Any suggestions on a good light bulb prop?

That's a pretty easy modeling project, I could do it in a few minutes if you like.  Give me a picture of what you want it to look like.

something similar to this.  Hope it came thru.  Just a real basic light bulb.

the only light in the scene is the bulb itself

That is exactly what I was looking for.  Thank you very very much.

Have fun :)

Sweet!

Did you model the arm/legs yourself? I'd love to have it with limbs, it's given me a great idea. :D

The arms and legs are just Andy, included with Poser 8, with the hip-to-head hidden as discussed above.
