Well here it is folks! Thanks to Shadowcat for providing me a texture to work with #:O) I took it into Photoshop and changed the eye colour and the skin Hue/Saturation.....hope you dont mind! Man i know im becoming a poser addict........is there a poser detox clinic for those that never manage to kick the habit? lol Thanks to everyone for there support, i feel like im getting somewhere now. Oh one more thing Shadowcat ( or anyone else) I couldnt quite get the eyebrows to work lol, any ideas where im going wrong here. Also how do i create a texture for the dress, could i just create a image in Photoshop say 300x300 pixels and apply the filter>texturizer>canvas to it then use that as my texture map in the materials inpector in Poser, or does the texture have to be done using UVmapper or something? Thats the most confusing part for me i think :( Anyway she bares a spooky resemblance to "posh Spice" i think lol later guys (sigh) daz hehehehe!!!1 <~~~~~on a high now :)

Nice!Who is? Your uncle? :-))))))

huh? lol Nooooooo "posh Spice is DAvid Beckhams wife.....yo know the English footballer.......member of the spice girls, well she was anyway i think lol Here look just so you belive me :O)

great picture....looks almost identical, the Poser figure may need thinner lips. Sharen

Whooooo hooooooooo! I posted a picture i made and someone actually like it........its a miracle lol :O) Thanks Sam

On the second CD that comes with Poser, the Content CD, are all of the templates for everything that came with poser. Templates for all of the figures and clothing. You have to paint the texture on top of one of these templates, and apply that as the texture map.

ok thanks for that! :O) Problem is though that poser didnt come with vicky, i had to pay for her........story of my life is that lol anyway ive changed my picture as suggested, figured out what lacrimals are too lol

Here it is! I bet your all thinking "for gods sake whats so great about it that he wants us to keep viewing it".......sorry people, im just excited thats all :) heheh!! daz

Hey ya have a right to be excited It looks wonderful! Nice work :)

That's really nice-- I like the lighting and the expression on her face... Constructive: Very nice set of the face, but I think we're missing the shadows for the eyelashes. In such a heavily shadowed image, it does stand out. I think you could do with a bit more detail in the texture map. Bring out her eyebrows (I don' t see any!), her lips, and a bit of colour on the cheeks and forehead couldn't go astray. The texture map is half the character, as far as I can tell. I do love the expression-- I can see a lot of careful work went into that!

ok thats great, thankyou! #:O) I had real trouble even getting the eyebrows on there, thats why there missing (told you i was new to this lol). I added colour to the cheeks though as youll see from the first image compared to the second, just subtle though like blusher. Ill play around with that a bit more though :O) any idea on the eye lash shadow thing too, how do i make the shadows more prominent? Thanks for ripping my artowrk to pieces you B@#'rd lolol (only joking) thanks for the compliments and the critisisms.....if people dont tell me where im going wrong ill never learn :O) daz

for vicky's eyebrows 1. select the upper eyebrows from the material list 2. set the sliders to highlight size = 1% transparency min = 100% transparency max = 100% transparency falloff = 0 3. load the transmap into the lower right map box Use the textures from me, change them, mutilate them, give vicky spots I don't care, just don't sell them as they are modified from a freebie P4 texture & lash transmap from visualkinetics. And you can now get a better set from free stuff including 2 face textures, 1 body & 1 trans. As to the eye color, for my maps they will always be grey so you can change the color just by changing the base color in the materials section without leaving poser. and lastly, glad your enjoying the textures happy posering!

Daz provides the templates, check the bottom of the page you purchased the clothes from. here's a link to the templates for vicky's clothing pack 1 also uvmapper (from free stuff) can make a make from any .obj file. get this program as you will need it, it's listed under utilities.

Thanks Shadow, what would i do without ya hey? :O)

I got that UV mapper thing a while ago and played around with the sample object for a bit then tried it with a poser figure. Am i right in thinking its not that easy to produce a template. The tutorial i looked at for poser3 females on uvmapper's site talked about moving stuff around on the template once it was created. sounds a bit tricky to me :O(
Right im off to try that eyebrow thing. Thanks again everyone!

daz

I think im going to scream lol Ok i did it with those sttings and it didnt work shadow for soe reason. could it be something to do with my "eyebrow" settings aswell as my "upper eyebrow" settings? Whats the difference anyway? Sorry :O( heres my settings anyway, see if you can spot anything worng......i must be missing the point somewhere :O(

In the Free Stuff I saw another verison of "POSH".. it that end of the list... I cant remember if it was in Victoria or not

The eyebrow settings should be the same as the face. Think of the "eyebrow" as the skin beneath, and the "upper eyebrow" as the hairs. really don't get discouraged, vicky's eyebrows are a tricky thing, I think that Daz labeled the materials badly on this point. only two materials should be transmapped eyelashes and upper eyebrows.

Good lighting for Poser.

so shadowcat........i need to go back into materials yeh? and then de-select the transmap for every other face part except the upper eyborws and the eyelashes yeh? when you say they should be the same as the face, do you mean "skinhead"? oh man i give up :O( I wish you could buy a tablet that you swllowed that would give you everyone else knowledge in a split second, it'd o much easier :O(

nah, you don't need to de-select the transmap, just make sure the transparency sliders are at 0% for the eyebrows. yes face = skinhead

ok thanks a lot :O) Ill give that a go now (sigh) :O)

The other "Posh" in Freestuff is Cyphre's, for Posette. Do a search for 'Posh' in Freestuff and you'll go right to it. Wunner why no one did any of the other Spice Girls.
