Just curious; are there any free lashes for V3, et al, out there? how are they applied?

Failing that, is there a good combo of dial settings between 'groucho' and 'singed off' for the puir lassie?..;)

thanks.

I use transmaps, pakled, and brushes in PS CS2 for lashes.  As for settings, I use long but not straight in the parameters dials.

Look in freestuff for "lashes" there is a great morph set and a cool conforming figure there for V3 :-)

thanks elzoejam, you truly are 'one step beyond'..;) I'm not entirely clear on transmaps (as far as I know, it's a setting for 'shininess', but we are not smart..;) I'll check it out.

Transmaps are maps done in black and white.  Black is transparent, white will show and allows you to set colors for it.  I've attached one of mine to show you.

1.) Go into the Material Room and find your figures "Lashes" material group.

2.)  Search your textures folder for the file wired into the Diffuse nose.

3.)  Backup that file.

4.)  Open Photohsop, open the origional from it's palce, and get friendly with the Clone Tool.

5.)  Save your work over the old origional and head into Poser.

6.)  Make sure the camera is right up close.  If you do'nt the lashed will appear blochy.

7.)  Click Render>Reload Textures and render you progress in Photohsop.

8.)  WHen you've the right balance of Black top White(In Photoshop,) you'll like what you have in Poser.

9.)  Then you can Open you Figure's Head in the Parameter Palette, and find her Lashes morphs.  There should be a small handfull.
