Does anyone know where a good texture to use on an eldery woman could be gotten, or barring that, could point me towards a really good tutorial on how to "flatten out" a facial picture of one to make a good texture? Using morphs to age only goes so far when what you really need is a good "skin". -Hecate

Recently I made a texture for mature women. You can get it here in the free stuff section. The texture is for Vicki/Millie because she has good MTs to age the face. I will post similar textures for P3 and P4 too, but give me some time: vacations are near. Ralph

Oh, that would be great! I haven't got Vicki (she's a bit too dear for my wallet) But making do with the regular P4 woman stretches my creativity! 8-)

There is a great one at a texture site which I dled and which Allie used for her 'old woman'. I'll have to see if I can find it. You could use it for P4 or Vicky I would imagine. No, I could not find the dl site. I do have the pic from it and I also found Allie's old woman Vicky face tex which would be easy to adapt to P4--do a search of her name--it is called OldVic. Diane

I think Allies tex is in the renderosity free stuff (Vicki/Millie). Wonderful done, but she's 70+ in age, I mean REAL old. Mine is 45 to 55 I would guess... Ralph

LOL--PUh--LEASE, Ralph, let's not consider 45-55 'elderly' LOLOLOL-actually you did say 'mature' (thanks). Now--70, I guess that could be considered 'elderly' and I suppose the tex in question is probably 70-80, but I did think hecate wanted 'elderly'. BTW, glad to see you interested in mature and non-slim folks.

Ooops, so I guess a look into my english dictionary would have been a good idea:-| (crawling ashamed underneath my PC-table). And Picnic, you're right: I prefer at least 30+. Many of the gallery posts look for me too perfect. Skin is too perfect, body-shape also. The un-perfect is (for me) even more intersting. It's a matter of personal taste and many of the "perfects" show the fantastic skills of the admirable creators (like e.g. Beton and many others). Ralph

That's fine Ralph--I got a chuckle out of it. I'm going to watch your textures--I prefer the less than perfect also, but am not a modeler. I've been watching Momodot's work with 'heavy' man. Diane

Well, I managed to work up a texture for the face using one I found at Freetextures, I think it was. I think it's not a bad job, and I believe it's also the texture that Allie was working off for her old Victoria one. You can go see a minorly touched-up first render for her at www.geocities.com/Vienna/Strasse/8181/esme.html Not too bad for a newbie, I guess. 8-)

Yes, I think that's the one--she looks like a very cranky old lady LOL. Diane
