Still some ways to go, as you can see. I think I'm in the ballpark here, definately better than all previous attempts at Spike, by me, on any figure.

Looks cool. Uhm... who's Spike?

Phwaw! A virtual Spike! Now that is very high on my list of desirable things! Will you sell him? Not that I fancy James Marsters or anything.........

He is a bad guy (vampire) turned good in the Buffy the vampire slayer tv series... WTB could you post a close up of the face?

ernyoka1 doesn't know who Spike is? tsk tsk Looking good "William" - and I second the request for a face close-up.

WOOHOO! I would like to see the face close up also. And yes...I DO fancy James Marsters. ROFL! ;o)

For DON?!! Your new Spike is going to be only for a P5 character? Say it ain't so...... Ernyoka, IMHO, Spike is one of the best, certainly the funniest character that Jos Whedon ever created on 'Buffy' (and this guy can really write 'funny'...along with 'heart-wrenching drama' and 'steamy sex'). Spike is a vampire who in real life was a bad poet. He's a sensitive, sexy, goth-punk Brit vamp who, after achieving the distinction of having slain two Slayers in the past, manages to fall headlong in love with the current one (Buffy). After trying to kill her for a few seasons, first.... ;)

He is certainly dressed and standing like Spike! Cool!

rain posted Thu, 27 February 2003 at 12:11 PM

I'd like to see the face close up too ;-)

Thank you, whoopdat--should have coffee before trying to read posts ;) (still trying to figure where the heck I thought I saw 'Don' in that text?!) Such a relief to be mistaken!

Hi everyone. I'll post a face pic in this thread after I do more work on him, he's not quite there yet. -WTB

Pat, There was a DON face image in this thread yesterday. Darned good-looking one, too. Carolly

vulcanis posted Thu, 27 February 2003 at 10:17 PM

This looks very cool,WTB. Can't wait for the close-up.

elgyfu posted Fri, 28 February 2003 at 2:39 AM

Thank you hauksdottir- the face was my 'Spike' created with Don - I took it down coz this is William the Bloody's thread and his is so much better than mine!

Photopium posted Sat, 01 March 2003 at 1:23 AM

I didn't think it could be done, but here he is in all his glory....people of Renderosity, I present James Marsters, AKA SPIKE! And, I've streamlined my creation process so that Spike will be fully distributable under preferred DAZ methods. Coming very soon! -WTB

I am just minutes away from needing a solid, reliable host for this file! -WTB

Whoopee!!!! :-) I wish I had a solid, reliable host for you. I soooo love Spike :-)

Spike With Buffy, Both V3

vulcanis posted Sun, 02 March 2003 at 12:44 AM

That's sweet. Great job!

rain posted Sun, 02 March 2003 at 12:50 AM

Very nice! Both of them :-)

who3d posted Sun, 02 March 2003 at 4:20 AM

Buffy is especially good, IMHO. Immediately recogniseable, without effort. Bes tof luck finding a host - what size are the relevant files? Can Spike's lower lip be made wider? Hudging by the reference photo the lower lip looks to be thick practicallt from corner to corner. Cheers, Cliff Bowman
