Just go to the freestuff Poser area here at Renderosity and youll be busy for weeks browsing and downloading all your hearts desire. Since April last year Ive been buying stuff from the Marketplace (here also) costing me up to some $1000, GLADLY spent! YOu can make it as expensive as you want. Go to DAZ3D for the original Victoria, Millennium Kids and Michael figures... Happy Posing! Maxx :-)

P.S.: Follow any link you can find in the Web Ring Top 15 at bottom right of this window and youll get addicted, without doubt! Any comercial figure usually will cost you between $10 and $25 average.

Depends on what kind of models you want, but if you mean human characters, there are several included in the software when you install it. All of them are built around the standard Poser figures P4 Man and P4 Woman, affectionatly called "Dork" and "Posette". Here at Renderosity you can find several character morphs, clothes, hair props etc for Dork and Posette, many of them for free. When you have become comfortable handling these figures, go for the more advanced Victoria and Michael from DAZ (www.daz3d.com). They will cost you, but you can't find anything better. You will also find an abundance of stuff for Michael and Vicky here at Renderosity too.

Go here and you can get loads for $35 :o) www.poserworld.com Steve

But whats a morph?

a moprh comes in obj format and applies to the specific part of the specific character that it was created for only! What does it do? Alter the shape of that part in increments as you twist the dial of your controls towards positive or negative values! Usually they work best on 1.000 set value! And here's the link to the site of the king of morphs..the one and only Traveler! :o) http://www.morphworld30.com Rena

To put it in simple terms: Everytime you turn a dial in Poser that changes the shape and form of a figure, you are controlling a morph channel. Each figure has a multitude of morph channels already built in, and you can add extra ones by importing obj-files such as the ones supplied by Mr Traveler at the link provided by Rena above.

Here is an illustration of the power of Morphs. On the left side is Michael 2 in his "standard" shape. On the right site is Michael after I used the Muscles 4 morph, with a setting of "1." This is a rather primitive cut and paste job. Hopefully you get the idea. Ron

Here are Michael 2 & Victoria 2. (Version 2 is the latest version of each character.)

I hate to say (since I didn't follow My own advice) but Read the Manual. Take a few days to peruse it at least. Trust Me, you'll be goin' off on all sorts of tangents soon enough. Oh look! A water-cooler in .obj format, gotta run!

... playin' with it. You'll get hooked soon enuf! Don't get frustrated - take it slow and you can probably find an answer to just about any question you may come up with from all the resident experts here at R'osity.(excluding me ;=] ) cheers, dr geep ;=]

Experts, he says?! That lets me out too. Ron

... not from what I've seen here. ;=]

Just yesterday, eh? I spent a few months working with the included models before trying for more...
