Attacged is an experiment I made with Valandar's Kaiju and the spinal fins add-on Gareee made for Digital I's T-Rex. Instead of the normal textures, I plugged the "specular" map into the diffuse channel and used a turbulence node to add some displacement, thus creating something akin to Godzilla's distinctive charcoal colored hide.
Since one can't simply "conform" the Rex-Plus fins onto the Kaiju without them severely warping, I loaded the base .OBJ file into UV Mapper Pro and saved each body part group as a separate file. I then imported each of the .OBJ files into Poser and "parented" them along the Kaiju's backbone and tail. I could have done the same thing using the spinal fins from one of Scott Ayers' Godzilla models and I may do so later.
Sincerely,
Bill
