First off, is anyone using him, and if so how are the results? Secondly, is there anyone out there making attire for him of a less "fantasy" style. I'd like to buy him, but if I can't get any clothes for him I may just pass on him. I know there's nothing in the marketplace, but I was wondering if there is another place I should be looking. I could pose the heck out of him, but male nudes don't do it for me. Thanks in advance schtumpy

The first thing you should be aware of with Apollo is that his "manhood" is an integrel part of the mesh. The only way to turn it off is to make it invisable. It's not like the unimesh figures that are seperate or like Mike's switching geometry. Since it's a new figure the merchants have to get used to modeling to the new rigging. It's a lot different. I have him and it sits on my hard drive. As you said, male nudes aren't my thing either. He does that quite well. There are some nice textures and characrers at rdna but I haven't seen much in the way of clothing I would buy. This is just on person's opinion, I have him, don't use him but might in the future depending on what is made.

I must remember to remember what it was I had to remember.

thanks for your opinion. I was afraid that was going to be said. I'll hold out until there are more clothes for him.

You know there's a app caled Wardrobe Wizard right? can convert all the clothes to be "wearable" for all the popular Poser figures . . .

Been there, done that and not to my satisfaction. When it comes to AM it's better to wait for clothing that was made for him. Sure, some clothing will convert over but anything that has a long sleeve, now that requires far more work and creativity. So, knowing that, I wait for something I like that I don't have to struggle with.

I must remember to remember what it was I had to remember.

I wonder if Freak clothing would work better with him? I think he's pretty cool, I see him as more than a fantasy character, but seems that's the clothing line for him so far. Marque

check out the new clothing pack for Apollomax at Runtimedna. the shirt can be puffy or not, trench coat can be short or long and made to be a regular jacket, leather pants...bunch of stuff, all with ApolloMax morphs. the beach wear which doesn't have morphs Wardrobe wizard can be use on to convert to a morphed apollomax and it works good because it was originally modeled for apollo. pxjims has a fantasy pack out here, as well as some freebies, and another pack on the way for sale. rawart has 3 textures a black texture, asian, old man, and a mummy texture coming in Oct. there is more clothing coming. there are like 50 items on e-frontiers content paradise, clothing, textures, as well as pose packs. again clothing is coming.

Schtumpy, Apollo is a wonderful character imho. He's so much more morphable than M3 in body and face I have to say I'll probably never go back. As for clothes, Wardrobe Wizard is an option and more clothing packs are being developed. I'm sure that some attire that is less fantasy oriented will be among those. Just keep checking in to RDNA. -jay
