I haven't seen any poses for any of the penguins in Poser. A penguin really doesn't have the ability to do very much so far as their body positions are concerned because they are basically really fat birds that can't fly.
To pose a model for swimming would be pretty easy. Lift the neck and head so that it's in line with the body. Point the legs/feet backwards towards it's tail and that's pretty much it.
And so far as walking goes, they waddle and their feet are actually covered by their body, so if you see a still shot of a penguin sitting and a still shot of one in the process of walking, they will look nearly identical except perhaps for the fact that they are leaning a bit in the walking one.

Penguins can also swim on the surface of the water, in the same sort of posture as the birds that are known as divers in Britain and loons in North America. Penguins, though flightless, do use their wings when underwater. I think that they flap their wings, too, even if only out of a misplaced optimism, when they are getting out of the sea.

I don't know what happened to JTrout's freebies. They used to be in the free stuff here, but I can't find them. I know he has some things at Poser Club, but I don't know if the penguins are there or not.

Thanks!

There is a baby penguin at Content Paradise. Not sure if it's still free or not. But it was part of their "Baby animal" series.

that baby penguin is absulutly terrable!
I've already got the Jtrout ones,
however making body morphs for the adolt
and baby penguins to make them apear more female
and basic walk and run pose animations are really ticking me off.
Thanks for you're help!
