Folks, Just wanted to share that the critique of Judy is fine. We fully expected it. And to boot, we're fully prepared for it. We know that not everyone likes the first release of any figure. As each one has been released, they're run the gauntlet, and over time peolpe have grown comfortable with their appearance by using the figures modified with custom morphs. Here's our plan. The Face Room. A little background detail- Over 40 3D scanned, real world human heads (they were attached when scanned) were entered into the Face Room database. the data was aggregated into groups likes eyes, noses, cheeks, etc. The data is really acccurate, because it's based on scanned heads. (along with their scanned textures) This database is used in two basic ways. 1- Using P5 sophisticated photo-matching technology, a set of photos can be used to model a head to look like a real world person. 2- Infinitely modify the Poser 5 base figures appearance with dozens of very accurate parameters. The best part of the Face Room? It dosen't bog down your CR2/figure with hundreds of extra morphs to thin the nose, widen the cheeks or even narrow the eyes. They live in the Face Room! Bring Judy in, and dial away. Dial a little, or dial a lot! Duane's right. Every art student knows what the desireable proportions should be. Set those up for Judy or Don, or the kids in minutes, or even better, make then look however you want... You want face morphs? Let me show you some face morphs!
