Thank you, Stormrage...I really have enjoyed seeing your renders here at Rosity! Hope to see a few of your creative efforts using DigiMan1 soon. I'm waiting to hear if my DigiMan2 passed all of the necessary tests and becomes available in the marketplace. Hopefully SOON! ;)

very cool S i like the freckles on DM2 makes him more realistic in my book. People have imperfections (agespots, moles, freckles in the oddest places.

Thank you again! DigiMan2 was created and intended for fantasy renders, as opposed to photo-realistic. I wanted him to have just enough real features to be convincing without looking totally plastic. Your correct, the average john doe is full of minor imperfections...that's what makes for interesting texture options. This technique I am using also help me hold the price of the package to a minimum because I don't have to rely on photos, seam mis-aligning, etc. I create all of the skin and parts I need "on-the-fly" digitally in Photoshop 7.

raising eyebrow.. Really? That is something I would be interested in finding out how you do that

Ah, I am treating that one as a trade secret! If you have Photoshop, or any other photo-manipulation software, experiment with it...you might be amazed what you can come up with on your own. That's how I did it! ;)
