thanks for the data LD ... looks like they would best be handled by their own addon set much later, if at all. I'm amused to see certain breed classes though, an obvious terrier type, a sighthound type, and so forth. Arkanine was the one I was thinking of, big orange fluffy thing.
waves at the lurkers It is nice to know that people are interested in this mad project. A certain amount of feedback is nice, even if its just dog pictures lol Or more usefully I guess, pictures you've done with the mildog and discussing what issues you had with it that you think need help. As we all know some bend issues only show up in certain poses, and I sure can't test everything.
todays exciting task .. finding more reference pictures for medium fur and then long fur breeds. I'm getting ref's for all of them now, to make sure I haven't missclassed any breed. yay google.
I ran into this picture the other day ...

There aren't all that many mildog conformers around are there. I think the sled dog set, and a guide dog harness thing. Would anyone be interested in making a fantasy tack set like the picture? and possibly say a dog cart harness (yay victorians), and a modern military gear set?

Lyrra I think the big dog with the armor was the very popular Roman Mastiff the Roman Legions brought into battle. There are a few breeds actually banned by US Gov for import but don't remember what they were but found them on Goolge. All big rough looking dogs. When the MilDog came out someone made an Irish Wolfhound kit for it and I believe it was a freebie I got at DAZ. But I never got to install and use it until recently. I looked for it among my thousands of archive CD but with no luck. I love that breed so it would be great to include it if possible. In fact not too long i started a thread here begging for someone with skills who thrived on challenge to create a good war armor for the bulkier MilDog breeds. None jumped in thought someone did create an armor for the LE dog which looks more like a second skin in the store. We also need aside from the DAZ puppies, a full morph set to reduce the dog to a just born figure. I have been trying to make one for my own use and it sucks! In line with that realistic teats and after birth belly morphs for the prospective mother dog to feed her young with. I needed to make a Romulus and Remus image for a client and would have greatly needed these items for the image. Had to do a sheitz load of post work to get the end results. Good snarl/growl morphs. No matter hw much time I spend on these expressions they never come out right. :(
I would love to test this when you get ready. Never done it but i have the full MilDog and all morphs and breed textures for it if that helps.
