Here is the Manchu Emperor of Qing Dynasty that we intend to donate with Steve to the renderosity store for 100% profit for this site... Since not many of you seem to visit the ideas forum, I had to post him here and ask for your help once again..any ideas about the ideal props that might create his environment other than a chinese vase, a screen or so many others already available? We wish to make him with Steve a better bargain and worthwile to be sold for Renderosity's profit! No need I guess to tell you who does the modeling and who the texturing! :o) Costume-slippers (comforming both), hair and character morph, are all original... So let's here some ideas for original props as well! :o) renapd

maybe something bamboo like an curved walking stick or thong sandals.. A straw mat.. short table.. a sumo(sp) suit.. those white sticks for the hair.. an obi (sash).. necklace with a dragon or with ying yang.. a small round black hat.. tassles on the hem.. a posable mustache and/or chin wiskers.. or ultimately a little geisha.. sorry getting a little carried away...

How about a gilded cage where he can keep his nightingale? Or a kite?

Wow!! Pretty good so far!! Let me see... Maybe a Katana set(come in 3, forgot the names!) with the wooden stand. If your really ambitious: a "Shogun" outfit... And If you do a'Geisha like Brschmidt suggested, then get her the "Ceremonial Tea" Props... Hope this Helps!!

How about a lil cricket cage with a cricket in it?

One of the best movies I've seen lately is 'The Emperor and the Assassin'. Given whatever year it represents, it would be a whole movie full of ideas. BTW, I like the gesture that donating to the store makes.

Wow! Looks great guys!!! Thanks so much for your wonderful support. I'm afraid I am no expert on the Qing dynasty, but weren't Pekingnese dogs originally bred to hide in the sleeves of emperors? When, I have no idea. Anyone want to make a Pekingnese?

You could probably do a good "Peek" (or even a chow) with a good texture map on a deformed sphere... ;-) Seriously, they would be good models to suggest to Anton in his "What Posable Models Should I Work On" thread

LOL Charlie Brown! I guess that's a wise choice as I have totally NO idea what a peek might be or chow..and I doubt if steve does either! grin renapd

A Chow is a medium sized dog with enough hair to be a GIANT dog. Looks kind of like a round teddy bear. A Pekinese looks like someone left a chow in the dryer WAY too long, then smashed it's face with a frying pan... Mostly a tiny version of the same. Yappy little beasts. Cute as all get out, but the yapping could drive a saint to distraction. Both breeds are distinguished, IIRC, but the blue tongues they have. If you've ever seen a "Foo Dog" or "Foo Lion" statue, the Chow was the original model.
