Hello Everyone. I was a bit surprised when asked to do pro bono illustration for a salesman whose wife is involved in community charity works. She is involved with the Katrina relief organization...a local chapter...who are trying to get a headstart for Xmas giving to the children from the area spread around the country, toys and games for the upcoming holiday. As part of their drive they want some posters and fliers and that is what I will be designing and illuastrating. I picked up the Tumbleweed Toon Horse at DAZ which is a sweet little character and very funny to use in renders and waht to make it into a rocking horse. I have not been able to figure out where to get the rocker base for the character. I found a set of freebies at 'Rosity sometime ago but it just isn't right for what I need. Does anyone know where I might find a rocker shaped object in any format I can import into Poser4 that is uvmapped for this project? If so...please let me know. Thanks! :D

It would be easy enough to model. Post an image of what you want. Someone will make it for you, especially since it's for a good cause.
If a real modeller doesn't step up, I could even do it. ;-)

Ok, try this. ZIP includes a prop, a pose to make Tumbleweeds fit on it, and a little readme for the sequence.

I assume that this prop can be re-scaled to fit any other creature ?

Try this. Replace the previous PP2 with the new one. The raw UV Template is in the textures folder. The pose should be the same.

Hey Ockham...thanks. I need to figure out about the texturing. I have some old wood textures I can use but they are not looking too...well...woody...applied universally. So I gotta fire up PhotoShop and see if I can use the uv map you provided to do it right. But I really appreciate the response and help!
