thanks a lot guys!! hopefully I should have it up and finalised within a couple of days.. I'll keep ya posted :D again thanks for the help. don't know why I used the p4fem thoughL.. I have much better modelsL.. and clothes.. but hey. Dolphy..

hey there!! :) thanx for replyin. okay. the object in question WAS supposed to be a flame when I started out. buuuuuuut... I found it nigh on impossible to get a decent flame so I settled for the floating sash/ cloth thing instead... Iw'm quite chuffed with the effect, but as you say it needs work.. I'm trying to steer clear of post work to begin with, to keep things simple. I'm not very experienced with art packages so it may end up just destroying the intended effect... I used a couple of textures on the sash and managed to stumble upon a nice ripple effect (not present here) but it almost entirely obscured the ball inside it... so I'm not sure. The lighting was standard poser lighting.. again. keepin it simple.. I do intend fully to start from scratch if/when I find myself a surrounds for the young lady thus allowing for suns/ light sources within those surrounds.. I'll make sure to take your advice and light the face/orb.. do you think perhaps a spotlite on that section would help?

Pay? Me?.. hah.. not likely. Amateurs cringe at my workL.. still nice to air it out once in a whileL

Hauksdottir >> hey there :).. I do actually keep all my zips in category for future reference.. although I'm gonna have to go through them all again sometime soon.. when I created the directories to store my DL's I thought that all I would need would be models, textures, props and odds n sods (actual folder nameL)... very wrong. however your idea is excellant.. especially if I have a folder inside each folder for each of my fave contributors :)

I still have all the zip files. I could stop being lazy, get off me r's and wite me a txt file list of freebies.. that'd keep me entertained for like.. lifeL.. I'm not liable to sell any models to anyone.. nobody's stoopid enough to buy anything from meL.. anyweay.. I believe in credit where credit's due. and whilst poser allows me to find an outlet for my artistic tendencies with relative ease I fully appreciate that it's you guys (and gals) that do the real hard work. I know. I tried a bit of mesh work. haha. that was fun. /;) keep up the good work, it's people like you that allow people like me to get things inside.. um.. out. oh. I think that made sense :) thanks :D Dolph.

yeah I noticed the chocobo and a link to an old selphie file.. but the HP and linx is down.. so I searched all the search engines I knows.. aaaaaaand found an excellant page with snake and everything.. only to findf out that it doesn't exist any more.. I'm just gonna sit in the corner and sulk now. Guess what my first customisation project's gonna be?L

please? I'm starting to dribble.. I just found a site in spanish with exactly what I want on it. 404... aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaagh.. I hate search enginesL

I D&D, Marvel and WFRP. every tuesday... :D

welcome indeed. always wanted to be a beta-boy :D ... just drop me a line when you need me.. I'll be around or you can mail me :D .. just got me stephanie too. This is turning out to be one addictive little hobby I got hereL take care all Dolph.

L thanx for the advice. more likely though I'll just DL me some tutorialsL.. and I happen to be lucky enough to know somwone who's doing Photoshop as part of their course at university (in sweden!!L (I'm UK)) so I'm sure she'll have mighty handy pointers for me :) does anybody know how the textures actually wrap onto the models? I've DLd quite a few and some seem quite slap dash with colours if they're in solids... rather odd :) Dolphy..

as above I'm afraid I don't have Mil babies and I'm pro pack. not entirely sure what you'd want me to do for you but I'm willing to try anything.. I have Mike, Vic and mil kids right now. Like I say happy ta help if ya need it :)

thanks I'll look into it.. I think I've got paint shop somewhere.. it came bundled with my computer.. HANDY :) I'm a few years away from professional btw.. I only got a hold of my pooter about a couple o months ago :) ... but I'm glad to find so many resources available for poeple like me who have always wanted to try their hand at CG art, rendering and animation :) Thanks again.. dolphy.. :)

great idea!! along with 47page - how to get a head to stick on to you new headless millenium figure - tutorial!! L.. but seriously. anything that can cut the cost on both sides of the fence has to be a good thing. actually sticking heads on is probably the easy part getting them to stay there is another matterL. also if your idea were to be implemented production times would drop too (hopefully) meaning more variety - faster. it's all good from here. thumbs up and a pat on the back :D Dolphy..

alrighty then!! .. thanks heaps bud, that should cut a fair few MB off my libraries. having gone a little DL crazy I wound up with stacks of things.. had no idea there was so much flying about out there... mainly here actually.. anyway. thanks again. Dolph.

Just the geom rsr's?... or the whole shebang?
