I'm sorry wolf359, I must be dreaming and not know exactly what I need for my own artwork. My mistake. Here was me, as a man living with low latent inhibition, who notices the tiniest of details, noticing the harsh line between V4's head and neck where the fine 'peach fuzz' of Exnem's product ends in standard, full-body renders, but I guess perhaps I'm just a freak who sees things others don't.

To be honest, I'm really, really sick of the negative comments about detail in 3D artwork. So you think it's pointless, so what? Also, for the record, I have never seen strand-based Poser head hair look as good as trans mapped hair which is done right. I've had this argument before and I'm sick of it.

It seems to me that the entire point of you involving yourself in my topic was to basically tell me it's pointless and pathetic, and it would look shit unless I use strand-based hair everywhere. Well, fantastic, please don't share such opinions again on my topics.

IMHO, it WOULD make V4 as complete a figure as any available for Poser and, at any rate, it is something I politely (if desperately) requested.

Boni, unfortunately, map-based hair would not serve the purpose here, though I see what you're thinking with that. I used a separate V4 figure with trans mapped body hair, perfectly synchronised with my character, Annie, before I got Exnem's product. It did the job at the time, but it was temperamental and often gave me bugs and 'z-fighting', especially in raytraced shadows and reflections. Also, a big plus for the strand-based product would be that it would catch light in certain circumstances. Exnem's product has 'peach fuzz' over the neck, upper arms, chest, back and thighs, mostly, and these areas look fantastic with the right lighting conditions, and no, they aren't close-up renders at all; they are what I term as full-body renders, which most of my pieces are, as I rarely like to crop a subject out of a piece unless I'm going for something like a bodyscape effect.

I know I have been blunt here, but I'm so utterly sick of the same old nay-saying going on here, it really gets me down and makes me wonder why I bother. I don't think I've ever done it to anyone else, yet it seems to happen to me a fair bit. Not nice.
