I accutally have a translu-map with veins in it, but they were small and the texture blew them out. Perhaps I'll try removing the texture and adding the translu-map back in and see what happens. Thanks for the photo ref, I'll probably refer to is when adjusting the map. As far as scales on the wings or not, umm I guess the biology of extinct/myological creatures is kinda what we're talking about. I'll probably end up just looking up some good Images at AD&D sites and see what they did.

sure thing cutey ~_O , I'll do one tonight before I adjust anything. Maybe I'll forward you the WIP stuff to preview on the Mil Dragon 2 if you like and becaue I'm kind of courious to see how it translates.

also after you do any changes in the pose room you have to recalc the dynamics for the cloth. This can be done in under the animation menu I believe, but I'm not 100% sure. (i usually go back into the cloth room and redrape and calc from there. This is probably overkill and a bit silly, but hay I'm a silly overkilling kind of guy. Damn another ant, let me grab my flame thrower ~_O )

Personally I'm with Marque. Although I've been lucky enough to not be trolled here (although I have been on other sites) I'd just leave the comments, reply to them (you can do that and not effect your rating) with something witty like 'am I under a bridge cause there is a lot of troll round here' and let other people who visit your gallery see them for what they are. If the ppl here are like the other sites Trolls will be both punished and shuned. Here I've been the victim of I guess you can say the anti-troll? I'm not sure what you call them, people who give so 'gushing' praised you know that they are just being jerks. I just ignore them too.

"I've heard that CDs and DVDs burned at home can go bad over time, but the way the CDs are made for mass-production is different and holds up much better - that's why I went with the boxed version" << It's a little OT, but this is true production CD/DVDs are 'stamped' on a metal plate before the clear plastic coating goes over them. DVD=r/cd=r use ink coated on one side of the plastic. Your laser on your burned burns the 'pits' that woud normally be stamped. Though this is less of an issue anymore, we're talking a self life of like 50 years vs one that has yet to be measured (the first CDs made are still good and their is no real data on the break down of the plate. Estimates are in the hundreds or thousands of years.) The ink will 'fade' if kept in direct sunlight to long though so keep those cd/dvd-rs in their jewel cases.

The teeth do have a little bit of 'dirt' added to them, but it got stretched out so it's pretty unrecognizable. Im probably going to keep it as is, and add in a blender node to a dirt map to create a dirt option. When Im done (as long as I can make a mat pose for it, I got a tutorial so I think Im ok.) Im probably going to toss this in the freebies section for people to use. Itll kind of be like my payment to those who I downloaded their freebies.
Ohh yea, displacment, I plugged the main texture map into the bump node on the base tree. That's the only 'displacment' any of the pics. IYO should I plug them into the displacment instead?

when this goes up I cna make a texture or two for it as a compainion set. I'll post here if I do.

if you use a trans map to hide the body part it should be possible. don't know I'm still waiting to win my free copy of Poser 6

me too, and as soon as I win that free copy here I'll be a happy camper positive thinking (damn it sucks to be broke)
