Can anyone make a coffin to me (4 free) whit the inscriptions on both side Fiat Veritas pereat vita I Would be forever thankful

This should be simple enough even for a beginner. There are coffins available in free stuff sections all over these sites. Try to find one with an included texture map (not only will you get a realistic wood grain, but that grain size will give you a sense of scale for your lettering). If you don't have a ready-made texture map, you will need to map it, so a slight detour is in order. Go to Steve Cox's site and download uvmapper. There is a professional version for Windows, but for something like this, the free versions on any platform should be ample. If you need help, check the tutorial again, and ask here. OK, back to the coffin. Assuming that you have a nice oak grained coffin with brass furnishings, you might choose an appropriately formal typeface. If you have a home-made map with splash of plain brown for the texture, it's ok... choose a typeface which takes advantage of the lack of distraction. Check out "Lombardi" as an example of a florid, but legible, face. In PhotoShop, or any program with layers (PaintShopPro?), this next bit is easy. Load your texture map on one layer. Simply type the words you want on another. Play with the filters to emboss, deboss, bevel, highlight... until it looks good to you. Anti-alias, scale, move, arrange, whatever to make the text fit on the map. Save it with layers as a backup!!! Then save it flattened as your final map to use. Remember that jpgs are lossy and should only be used for final art. Carolly

I've seen at least a dozen coffins available here and at other sites. I'd recommend checking in FreeStuff. If you don't find anything there, or in the MarketPlace, I know the Horror section at 3D Cafe has several styles in various 3D formats. Convert one to OBJ (if you con't have any other software that will do it, you can import many formats into Poser, and then export again as OBJ. Once you've got one in OBJ format, you can run it thru UVMapper (Classic version is still a free download), and make a texture template for it. Save it out of UVMapper, re-import it into Poser, and then you can make and apply a bump map to incise any lettering you want into the surface. Cheers!

Whoops - Cross-Posted with Carolly - She did a better job describing the procedure than I did. What she said...

I'll see if I can find a free one and I'll do the texture up for you. Good 'nuff?

Ok, I have one for you. Send me your e-mail pvtly. and I'l e-mail it you in the next day or so.
