LMK - you're right. now that you tell, my memory improves, too. well, it's a couple of years ago that i read it.

btw, i finally found only the first one ("dune") really good ...

as far as i remember, he was driven mad by alia and died in the battle field outside the governor palace of arrakeen...
(sorry, could not resist)

i do not want to split hair, but ... desaturating is not the nicest option, since it gives you dull, grey-in-grey results. well, it's a matter of taste of course, so please don't flame me for just an opinion.

just like in photography, i'd recommend to use the channel mixer (offered in most 2D graphical programs like GIMP or photoshop). so - render in colour in poser, and "black/whitify" the result.

for photoshop, there are also quite a lot of ready made b&w conversion plugins available.

maybe i just overlooked the way how to do it ... :-)

thanks, will take another close look.
cheers, sebastian

ps: happy mid autumn festival (moon festival) to everyone.

my request would be support of props in order to be able to convert dynamic clothes.

while dynamic clothes can be adjusted to nonmatching figures to a certain extend, using a tool like WW would make this a lot easier and the result even more convincing.

cheers

**EnglishBob, thank you for that link, always wanted to get something like that.

very interesting.
my skills are not good enough to take part of this, still i got some ideas what models to try to model ...

i think it is perfectly easy to understand that most names mentioned so far are "celebrities" of recent times, coming from american showbiz.

now, what about those idols of the past, or different origin?

just to name a few:

marcello mastroianni
kirk douglas
frank sinatra
marlon brando
james dean
humphrey bogart
yul brynner
gregory peck
chow yun fat
tony leung
johnny weissmuller
john wayne
alain delon
boris karloff
spencer tracy

greta garbo
gina lollobrigida
sophia loren
audrey hepburn
katherine hepburn
lauren bacall
catherine deneuve
fay wray
faye wong
gong li
akiko wakabayashi
maureen o'sullivan

em, i think you got the idea ...
maybe it is just because i am getting old and miss some of the "old times" - but this should be a rich source of inspiration for you all.

SU-22 and MiG-21 are not the same, though the shape is roughly similar. the NATO code name for SU-22 is/was "fitter". the M4 version features variable (swinging) wings. just repainting a MiG-21 does not make a SU-22, the same way as you cannot paint a chevy into a caddy.

by the way, just a little research in the net would have told you this.

maybe it is not of interest to you ...
most available 3d harley models that i found so far are technically ... weird.
harleys have only 2 exhaust pipes and 1 airfilter, and they are not symmetrical.

but, promo pictures may not tell all.

YACEB.
yet another cross eyed blonde.

money makes the world go 'round ...

interest.
