Hi all, Some of you may be familiar with Tomiya-san, who created a wonderful Japanese Budoh for the P4Man. I recently completed a conversion to make it fit and conform to Michael 1&2. I have emailed Tomiya-san and received permission to post this converted model, giving all due credit to him, of course! It is an all new CR2 and OBJ file due to regrouping, and includes Tomiya-san's original texture file which I have used for both base texture and bump. It is not 100% perfect, there are some pokethroughs depending on your pose. Mostly in the shoulder and chest area. I have further created a couple MAT files so that you can 'bare' Michael's torso and just have the Hakama. If anyone can host this, please let me know.

And a view of the Hamaka only

Great outfit ! I can give it a little webspace if you wish.

We'd be happy to host it for you at PlanIt3D.com. Pop on over and give fitzy a holler. This goes for others looking for hosting as well, we're all about helping folks out with space for the free goodies.

Thanks Compiler, I think I will check out PlanIt3D. I appreciate your offer, but I know space can be precious. And if this goes well, I may see about beginning to do other conversion for share. Wouldn't want to burden your setup }-) Thanks, Ben }-) I'll do that!

Wherever it winds up, that's a good looking piece of work, freebie or not! I'll be looking out for it. Thanks so much to you and Tomiya-san, shogakusha! Larry F

For all interested parties, it will be going on PlanIt3D. I have to package it all up. With luck, I will also be putting the conforming Fox Tail produced by Specs2, Akin and myself back on-line as well. More to come! Thanks all for your interest! Shogakusha

I have also redone the UV Mapping a bit so that texturing works a little better.

Great work shogakusha - thanks. Be sure and let us know when it is ready :-)

I have just emailed to PlanIt3D. I will post here when it is up, assuming Fitzy doesn't beat me to it }-) It is not perfect, and the legs have some trouble with extreme bends. Mostly in the hips/buttock. I look forward to seeing it used. Please be sure to thank Tomiya-san as well. I added templates for texturing as well.

Groovy, can't wait to check it out. :)

Most excellent! I could have used this a couple months ago, but will certainly have a use for it in the future. :)

OK folks, I just submitted the Budoh to freestuff here at R'osity. For those of you who cannot wait, you can go to PlanIt3D right now and get it there. I hope you get good use out of it! And if you do, please be sure to email Tomiya-san (emails in the readme) to say thanks. Though any problems are likely mine }-)
