There's been a lot of interest in taking a second look at the default P5 figures, especially Judy. This inspired me to create an original Photorealistic texture for Judy and a newly morphed face and body. I'm highly interested in feedback on the results. I know that Judy can use Vicky textures, but for some reason they just never look quite right to me. So I created this skin texture from scratch using Judy only. It matches her mesh much better and oddly enough, doesn't look as good when applied to Vicky which kinda confirmed my suspicions. The body morph and face morph were created with magnets, the facial expression was created using the excellent Morphin' Mindy figure made by Deecey, available here in the MP. Its a huge waste and a bit of a tragedy for the default P5 figures and all their content to completely ignored. Everyone in the rush to make "The Greatest Render Ever" has overlooked these figures and I think weakened Poser as a program. One of the great strengths of Poser 4 was Posette and Dork, you could use the program out of the box and not feel technically inferior because you weren't using the latest high priced custom content. I'd like to see more of Don and Judy in the galleries and free stuff.

I'm still waiting to see an open smile that looks good on Judy, then I will be happy with the character. Now her face just doesn't look right. I would love to use her, just need to get her face to look more human. Marque

I think that the judy and vicky texture maps dont exactly line up and that is why they dont really work together. Maybe dark whisper will make a universal texture creator file for this, after he makes the poser 4 ones that I want :)

Looks real good Zarabanda. Stuff like this brings me one step closer to knuckling under and trying P5. But...not....quite....yet. Unzipped

She looks good Zarabanda. Are you going to follow Yamatos lead and make her available as a freebie for all of us? (I hope.)

Is this going to be available any time in the future? I like the base figure you've developed.

OT- I don't have, nor do I intend on getting Poser 5 but one thing I did not realize about Poser5 until recently is the fact that Posette and Dork [P4 Nude Female and Male] are included with the program. I think a lot of new users to Poser 5 who have never used Poser 4 are missing a lot of excitement by not working with these characters.
On Topic, this is a very nice looking texture...and is much needed to spice up Judy a bit.

Looks Great,
I agree occasionally someone will post a really knockout morph of Judy that looks many times better that most of the Vic models posted. I really marvel at what some people can do with magnets. The best set of "buns" I have ever seen on a female poser figure were done on a posted Judy morph with a set of magnets.
As far as open smiles go-- that seems to be a "Holy Grail" of Poser figures..Its hard to find one even for VIC using the commercial packages.
Judy poses an excellent challenge to morphing skills.

Love to see more of Judy

Fascinating! That is a very different look for her. :) I agree that Judy is going to need some good texture maps of her own as well as the morphs. Don could use a good dramatic texture, too! Carolly
