I am using Anim8or, and have Poser 4 and Bryce 4. If I need something else please let me know what they are (Im trying to go the "free route" here.. so.. :) )

I am hoping to have the characters with the same abilities that at least the Poser 4 characters do, moving eyes, bending fingers etc.

I have read Thorneworks tutorial on "Mr Thornebear" (good tut btw) and I have looked for any anim8or tuts, but they don't seem to cover the steps in enough detail. (Yes, I can be a bit dense!)

Any Anim8or users have any useful info, or some links that I can read more about?

Thanks in advance.. and let me know what you think of the characters. Any call for them, ya think??

Im needing info on how to create them in Anim8or.. :) thgeisel - thanks for the link, but I don't have any (nor can afford at this time) any of the "high end" programs listed on PoserTech... (I did bookmark it for future use tho.. ;) ) -Lee

how adorable, LOL, cute cute. Sharen

I don't know how to use anim8or, but I know this would be a very easy char to do in 3dsmax. This is cartoon so there's no a lot of details. Using primitives for this model will be more than enough to do the char. The head is made up with 4 sphere and two cylinder. One sphere for the head, an modified sphere for the nose and for the ears and two modified cylinders for the eyes. Hands is made up with a cylinder with box attatch to it. The body is more complex to do but it seem easy. Depending of your skill you'll probably made this up in about 5 hours, mapping include. To do them animatable in poser is very hard. Sorry if I'm negative, but I'm unable to do it. Unfortunatly, someone has try to show me, but I still don't get it right. Sorry! Hope this will help ya!
