Hi Everyone, I gotta question? It seems that many people are not creating a lot of works, with Michael shown nude. I'm curious about that. I know that if Zygote wanted to sell him without any genitals, the Poser Community would have been in an uproar. So why aren't we creating fine art nudes...showing Victoria and/or Michael? Also, as artist, I would think that most of us would not be offended by both male and female nudity. Oh yeah, what do you think of these poses for Michael? I originally created them for Victoria and made some modifications. Let me know what you think.

I agree Eric, No need for coyness here! Nice set of poses by the way and nice face/body texture:) is the texture your own? Are you going to make the poses available? thanks...regards, Tribe.

Thanks! As far as the texture goes...I just airbrushed the beard on, using Corel 9. I then add a fur affect using EyeCandy plugin. Close up, it looks pretty cool! Also Tribe... Sure I will make the poses available if you think they will get used. Do you think people will be interested?

Eric, count me in as interested. They look great! The lack of nude renders is most likely due to the very few textures available.

For my part the reason is that I just don't do nudes. I don't have any interest in that aspect of art. They could have made Michael without the genitals and I would have been just as happy with him. shrug Kate

heyas; i am wondering if you fixed the hands when you revamped the poses from victoria. from what i understand if you use victoria poses on michael, his hands will 'break.'


Tribe posted Mon, 18 September 2000 at 7:28 PM

I'm sure they will, there is a major shortage of good Michael stuff around. regards, Tribe.

I agree with Kate on this one, just have no interest in male genitals showing, although I don't care if other people do. Marque

Did I mention that I like the poses anyway? Oops...I see I didn't. Well I do. Can always use poses (they generally tend to work if the figures are nekkid or clothed). Kate

I agree with Kate and Marque. But I like having the option should I want to create an image of Michael nude or any other poser character nude.

Never having a problem with nudity myself I have found Mike like you have a good solid model. I did fit a weird thing tho in the top left pose you have shown I have two words of advice. first don't y tran the hips much further than that. second, never, ever, even just for fun move your camera betweeen his legs * don't ask why i was , it's a long odd story. But if you do you'll see something on mike that would be more normal looking on a female. Again I was not doing anything sick, but the camera happenedto pass that area and pow there it was.


KateTheShrew posted Mon, 18 September 2000 at 8:57 PM

Oh now you've done it. You do realize that we're all going to move the camera between his legs just to find out, don't you? :)

giggles and at last unpacks Michael Okee, now you done it. Gotta see this.
