Hi Doc! As there seem to be a lot of model railroaders around (me too, me too ;-) why not modelling some railroad equipment in one of your next tutorials? Willy PS: I really love your way of teaching complicated things!

Can the floating items change their "road" at a certain point? Like a railroad car on a turnout.

Is it necessary to use an easy poseable thingy (rope, etc.)?

Could there be a list of props or figures (like snap tracks) to follow?

I know I'm greedy ;-)

The simple short hair fits HER very well - and it renders faster.

BTW, do yourself a favor - take pictures of his hands and feet, the eyes, the ears and all those TINY charms they have. I'm always totally enchanted by their little hands :-) Willy

Then, maybe, you could lay him on a flatbed scanner?!? A front shot and a back shot would, like, do ;-) Willy PS: He's too cute, simply! Please, excuse my stupid jokes :-)

Hi France, will this texture be in the MP soon? I'd like to enhance the Poser Baby! ;-) Willy PS: Congratulations, Grandmere!

You set "Use current background shader". Can we have a look on that background shader? BTW, on the rendered image use Ctrl+Alt+R (="Antialias document") Willy ... and for heaven's sake, uncheck "Use texture filtering" and make "pixel samples" equal 4. ;-)

1. set "Diffuse Color" as white (or your map will be coloured) 2. connect the bump map with "Gradient bump" That's all, I can see now. Willy

Hi Geep!

I have PP and P5. I use P5 only. Willy

pakled: escape velocity is 11.2 km/sec (around 6.8 mi/sec) that's 40,320 km/h (24,436 mi/hr) orbital velocity is 7.9 km/sec (around 4.8 mi/sec) that's 28,440 km/h (17,236 mi/hr) i.e. orbital velocity is around 25 times the speed of sound (measured at sea-level, that is) Willy PS: escape velocity is always SQRT(2) times orbital velocity (for a circular orbit at the same distance from the center of gravity)

Just wait a minute, please :-) They're going mach 3 (3 times speed of sound) for sub-orbital flight - it's mach 25 to get into low earth orbit! What they did is scratch on the door into space - just like the Wright brothers a century ago scratched at the door to todays multi billion dollar air line business. A big WOW for them! Willy

Paul Allen is also involved in financing SETI work (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence). Now, that's a good way to invest Microsoft money! I'm very excited about the advent of private space travel! Yahoo! Willy

Yes, Sam, that's what I meant - "work of art". There lies the border line - not in "nudity or not nudity". Willy PS: I find it amusing (to a certain degree) how much weight is given to this topic.

Sorry, but I have to chime in: Some of you seem to construct a contradiction, like "nudity = no art", or vice versa.

Why don't you invest as much work in a piece of ART that contains nudity? There are many real (as opposed to hobbyist) works of art that contain nudity all over the most distinguished museums of the world.

Sex sells, you say - well, right so! Sex is the most attractive and basic interest for NON-pervert people. So why not attract hits with sex?!?

Sorry, rant mode off for now.

Willy
