Well ...

I was away for so long.

To many stories and tales to tell during this time - so I will not even try to do so.

I'll try to explain why I was away for so long.
Not that I stopped doing poses - I think I have thousands in the pipe for release. OK I did not do so many poses recently - because of other things to do. Important things for myself.
Not that I'm running out of ideas. Oh really - not.
One thing is true - I felt exhausted at the end of the 2nd book (I think it's not really a tutorial) and it's still not translated into English language.
We all know - well the long time players know - what happened to me. Sometimes ... you need time for yourself - to focus back on normal life.
But - as also most of the long time players know - the fire is still inside you.

So ... I'm still interested if there is any need in poses ? I don't really know. OK - from time to time I sell this and that in the store. But this isn't the kind of feedback you need. Maybe for some people - but not for me.

I'll try to reanimate my website. I think I'll leave the old one as it is. It was a different Schlabber - in my eyes who ones started doing poses and the Schlabber today (well - Schlabber isn't my real name - but there's no need to change it)

First - to retain an old custom - I will ask if I can make this and that pose set.
Just feel free to answer - I'll make it for free (well - please ... don't ask for hundreds of poses ... but I'll see what I can do).

If I don't get any answers - well OK - I've done thousands of poses - I can't be angry if there is no more need for them, or not ?

OK - let's see - I'll come back soon

Start your wishes here ...

Greetings, Schlabber

Oh finally ... this will be a happy year for me, so there's no reason to give something back from my joy as I once had so many fun in this whole community

Thanks - but I'm just the average guy next corner to you. Well - OK - not the next corner ... certainly a few corners more ...

Try to be a little more specific ... poses for which character ?
What kind of poses ?
Single or couple poses ?
Combined poses (OK - these may take a bit more time) ?

hi S!

Welcome back and yes,,, poses needed. Especially for V4,, M4(soon) and Apollo.. mho

WB.. something new to consider.. Poser now can pretty much convert poses from one figure to the next with it's universal pose features.

Pretty nifty, actually.

Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.


AnAardvark posted Thu, 17 July 2008 at 1:46 PM

One type of pose which I can't seem to find many (any) of:

  1. Swimming poses. Other than some for V2/M2, and a handful of scuba poses, I see no swimming poses. It would be nice to have some general ones, plus some motion capture series for various strokes such as the Australian Crawl or the Butterfly. It might also be nice to have some diving poses too.

Oh geez - someone guessed I stopped doing poses because of V4 not long ago G

She isn't the funniest character to pose at all. But hey - I asked ... and here are the answers.

OK - same here as for kimber - try to be a bit more specific in the variety of poses - ty

If I were to request any poses, it would be common every day action poses, like reading a book, writing, holding hands....
Single or couples and for any figure, whichever is your favorite to work with is perfectly fine.

Thank you very much for your time & I hope you enjoy being back into the community!! HUGS

If you ask, I would say, poses for Victoria 4 - single poses - on a chill out party maybe?

I know - I tried it - worked for me to 80% ... but as I'm still a bit of a perfectionist I'm not happy with 80% ;-).

Especially for couple poses it's just not good enough ...

I tried to use some old of my combined V2/M2 stuff for V3/M3 but ... stopped. I'm quicker in redoing them to reassign all the fingers and limbs.

Finally ... it doesn't matter for which character I'll do some new ones :tongue2:


BastBlack posted Thu, 17 July 2008 at 2:28 PM

Yea Schlabber!  Good to see you. ^^

What I love about your poses are that they aren't pin-up poses or fight poses (there is too much of that for the guys, imho).  I love the useful everyday poses (like your freebie sets for M3 that were organized by the folder), and the theme poses really inspire. (girl chased by Werewolf, guy and girl dance, etc) .... Basically, I think doing what you do well is a good start. ^^

fyi, M4 is going to be released sometime in the next few months. He will need lots of cool poses.

And the soon-to-be-released WyrdSisters' Anubis Warrior looks like a lot of fun! He will need some luvs too. ^^

Well, well - I'm a bit of the release schedule ;)

It might be a good plan to give away some V3/M3 poses first (as I have already done enough in this direction) - then go to some V4 poses (to get a (better) grip on her) and then - if I'm lucky an M4 is released ...

Gesture is a good keyword - I read a lot more about hidden gestures (it was always a hobby of mine) - may be also a good idea - to get a gesture set ?


Kattey posted Thu, 17 July 2008 at 2:43 PM

I would prefer some rock-star poses for M3/H3/D3. Like playing solo, playing drums, playing keyboard, guitar smashing, all heavy metal, rock and rap stuff which those people do on stage  :)

Hands are always a problem....it seems that no one does hand poses.  They are almost as rare as facial expressions that really work.

Oh, Herr Schlabber persönlich!! Du hast sogar Deinen eigenen Ordner in meiner Runtime 😉 - und nun, aus Höflichkeit, weiter in englisch!

Hello and welcome back - first let me say thank you for all those free poses you have already made - they made my start with Poser so much easier and I still get back to them quite often for "older" figures.

So we can make wishes, huh? In fact I don't care so much about a specific figure - but what I desire since a long time are poses like those that Dieter Blum photographed with dancers, here is an example:
http://www.mdf.ru/english/exhibitions/moscow/blum_body/

I think that poses like these look VERY good with dynamic clothes and are good as well for martial arts scenes and likewise.

I'm not always right, but my mistakes are more interesting!

And I am not strange, I am Limited Edition!

welcome back Schlabber, good to see you are still around.
as for poses, I love your action poses but what is really lacking is decent every day poses. everyone seems to want to do superhero, Fighting and fashion model poses no one wants to do poses that depict more common day scenes. a variety of walking positions, picking something up, putting something down, sitting in various positions, leaning against things, doing various things with the hands. and yes I would like them for V4 as the poses for the millennium 3 figures don't work well on the 4th generation rig.

Attached Link: Some poses ...

Hmmm - you might want to see a bit from the newer stuff ?

Well, well as these poses supposed not to be released through "normal" stores I can post them also for free - or not ?

Please use them wisely - they are not meant to be too adult. But as it is so hard nowadays to get them in a store out of erotic-touch ...

OK - enough talking ... have fun posing

I hope they work - if not please leave me a reply ... I hope you also get them to run - they are freestuff - but without a freestuff note inside. Just use them in the "spirit" (it's a good word - glad you didn't use ghost instead ;) ) of freestuff ...

Yannow... one set I always considered was missing was a generic 'getting hit' set - various poses of a person on the receiving end of severe blunt force trauma as inflicted by five fighting phlanges. :D Not the offensive side - but the actual 'taking a hit' side, that could be rotated and moved to be on the receiving end of punishment from a wide variety of directions and to a wide variety of body locations...

A request? Well it is for V4 of course but...I have been hunting for a pose that has her toes turned inward slightly, facing each-other, her hands on her hips and a slight bend at her waist. If you wanna make a face, I envision this with her nose scrunched and her tounge out LOL. I have had this picture in my mind for AGES but just can't seem to get the pose just right :-)

I am so glad to see you back. Just the other day I was hunting for a shower pose and thought of your site first :-)

Welcome back!

I use your poses a great deal for a variety of figures with just a bit of tweaking of a joint here and there.  They have been such a great resource. Thank you so much for them :)

If you are going to be making new ones, I do have some suggestions based on my lack of findings in recent searches:

Normal everyday style furniture poses.  Things like sitting in a chair or on a sofa reading, laying on a couch watching tv and relaxing, sitting at a table having dinner... stuff like that.  For the most part the furniture poses that I have found have had the figure draped over or perched on furniture trying to look sultry/sexy. Some of us actually use the furniture for what it's meant for...sitting :)

Also, a while ago I was looking for poses of human female-large cat  (IE: Tiger) interaction. Not the type that involves fighting and killing like those abatoir ones in the MP here.  I mean lounging together, walking together, cuddling. That kind of thing. More sensual poses than cutesy or violent or playful. The kind typical of a fantasy art image.  For the life of me I can't remember the name of the artist (a woman) who had a couple that were right up my alley!

It's good to see that some poses still needed.

Have to go to work now (after sleeping). I'll summon it up and make an order when I come back 😊

Then I will start doing the poses:

I will start with the dance poses mentioned by SaintFox and then do some Vampire Poses for Shalimar (as they are promised since more than a year).

Some good ideas here for doing this and that pose or pose set. Looks really like fun :tongue1:

Hi Schlabber

I was thinking some stretching, sit to standing poses, picking up a box (with and without bending knees)

sorry these may seem a little boring.

challenging? how about a cafe date?
two way conversation
sipping cappuchinos

artsy?
sitting in the park series
sit on ground /wall /bench
reflecting
hands around knees
reading a book
Laying on side, propped up & reading book
lay back hands behind head and study the clouds

Hi Schabbler

Its great your back, your poses are well known and very valued to many.

I would like you to make about 12 off  V4 surfing poses and ski poses on water. Also poses for horseback riding including the circus type, would be great.

Thanks Rowlando

Quote - Yannow... one set I always considered was missing was a generic 'getting hit' set - various poses of a person on the receiving end of severe blunt force trauma as inflicted by five fighting phlanges. :D Not the offensive side - but the actual 'taking a hit' side, that could be rotated and moved to be on the receiving end of punishment from a wide variety of directions and to a wide variety of body locations...

This does sound like a very useful idea - happily second it!

Absolutely great that you're back, Schlabber! :D

RobbyBobby posted Fri, 18 July 2008 at 9:42 AM

Just figured I'd add my own two cents.  I've been a fan of yours for a long time.  I've got a complete library of your poses and I've used them frequently over the years.

I'm personally most interested in poses for the male figures (M3, H3, D3)...go figure.  Every day poses would be most useful...things like sleeping, eating, sitting (in chairs, on couches, lounging, etc.).  Couples stuff is always good, although I'm pretty exclusively male/male.

If you haven't seen the Lady Littlefox/Capsces Furry characters yet, they are Aiko/Hiro based.  Any kind of poses that would emphasize their animalistic sides for everyday life would be really cool, too.

Your stuff is great because it doesn't have that stiff look/feel to it.

Schlabber! A big welcome back my friend. I still have all your original poses for Posette and Dork (was it '98? '99? Years ago, anyway) and use them all the time. They are some of my favorite sets.

I've installed them in my runtime with every Poser upgrade. Can't wait to see what you've got on the horizon. Good to see you back!

Schlabber!!!  It's so nice to see you back.  I still use your poses!  Love the Boris Vallejo ones!  I'm glad to see some more of the "old gang" back!  Been here since 98. As far as poses needed, IMHO.

Partial poses: Standing, siting, walking ... etc. but casual.  bqalanced, and starter poses.  What I mean.  Let's have a basick standing pose, have upper torso varieties to go with it that can be tweaked to individual needs, but have a solid base to start with.  And, HAND poses.  There's never enough of them.

I guess, I think a pose build "kit" would be so cool

welcome back!  of course we remember you!  i'm glad you've taken time away to rejuvenate yourself and focus on other important aspects of your life.  balance is always good.

my vote is lots of poses for any male(s), especially plain art ones.  i think one reason that males are used infrequently is a lack of good example images.  that is, i think for lots of people, when they imagine a scene, they just automatically imagine a woman and it's hard to think of how a man should look.  as a result, there are some notably good artists posting images of guys, but many more who use guys either have them awkwardly posed and stiff, or purely sensually.  it would be great to see several plain, traditional, fine art poses for guys that just make a good image.

my personal vote would be just about anything with arms over or interacting with the head, as i always find those problematic.  and any real dance pose.  modern, ballet, etc.  but that's just a personal wish.

 Hi Schlabber, I have not forgotten about you.  I use your poses every day and I kind of had the feeling you were pretty busy with other stuff, but I knew you would surface again. I know what you mean about V4, but she can really have some very nice, real looking facial expressions. So anyway, I would love it if someone (maybe you) just decides on a new scale for V4 and V3.  Scale the ladies somewhat smaller so they won't be such amazons, but increase the head size proportionally. Then make couple poses (fighting, talking, dancing etc)  for V4 and V4 male, and V3 and V4 male and V3 and M3 and V4 and M3 with this new size. Someone has done a set of poses with a difference in height between the male and female, I think it was in rdna.  Yes, I think it is this one. http://www.runtimedna.com/mod/bcs/index.php?ViewProduct=3175 Maybe you could consider seeing these proportions and doing more poses for these proportions.   Oh I would also like very much, to see the freak with poses with scaled down V4 and V3 women.

I think this is an example of V4 where she looks pretty real.  Just to encourage you to start using V4 more.

I would second 'sboyd'. Everyday poses including using laptop, mobile phone, getting into car, relaxing in a bar, working out in gym, having dinner. Maybe boring but makes a change from all the fantasy and glam poses.

Oh damn - I should have knew it. An even better Computer does not protect you from crashing Poser. Was just finished with the V4 dancing poses - then Poser decided not to work anymore (not freezes - it just stopped working) . So - have to re-do them again ... so well, that's (Poser)life - or not ?

Well, to leave you not so disappointed I give you a few V3 / M3 poses from the newer DAN (Dreams and Nightmares) set - as there are so many poses are inclued in this set it does not matter to give some away for free ...


Schlabber posted Sun, 20 July 2008 at 5:57 PM

A quick reminder for the poses ...

As I won't do any objects I can not use any objects in any pose set.

So - using things like laptops, mobile phones or playing an instrument is just not possible (OK, OK - maybe playing air-guitar ;o) ).

Sitting poses work as the hands are not to much engaged in an object. Oh well - hands - I need to make hands for V4 - maybe starting first with this ... did I say it once - V4 is an awfull figure to pose rolling-eyes


VonCroy posted Sun, 20 July 2008 at 6:16 PM

If you can do air-guitar, why not air-mobile phone?

momodot posted Sun, 20 July 2008 at 6:48 PM

Schlabber, I have not forgot you. May I ask why no objects? I am simply curious. Is it that you have no standard objects that could be distributed with the poses or is it maybe an artistic choice on your part? If it is the former rather than the latter I am sure some modeler would donate decent props if you liked.

Suggestions for poses? The stuff that is hard for me is figures interacting... not fight stuff but people snuggling on couch watching TV maybe or couples in conversation. I like your "expression" work very much. I like realistic domestic scenes as opposed to action and battle or magic poses. I do mainly models posing as if for a painter and process those to be "digital paintings" but I am interested in also doing natural life type scenes. How about poses where fingers of hands clasp together with fingers entwined? Self or couples? Those are very hard.

Problems I have with many commercial sets are that so many poses are for "Barbie" high heel feet as opposed to flat footed and also that unlike you, people will even send to market poses that do not show the proper balance of weight to the supporting body parts or have distortion in the neck.  I did not used to use any Library poses but a down turn in my health has made me reliant on prepared poses. I use all the figures I guess but I prefer the older figures as my computer has not much power.

Welcome back :)

Quote - If you can do air-guitar, why not air-mobile phone?

G - Well ... if it's air-guitar - then it is air guitar - you can use these poses for this, but it would be too difficult to adapt e.g. air guitar for normal guitar poses.

If I would make a pose then - I would start from scratch (all-zero-pose) - this would take me around 10 Minutes - to adapt another pose will just take the same time - so why use a (let's say) 75% right pose.

Of course it may work - but it will look too nifty - in my opinion. And if the poses look like that - I don't give them away

Well,  here my two cents ^^
I do NOT remember You- I don't even know You because I was a far to new poser people when You left, But I KNOW Your work and it's amazing ;)

I remember two people who's work made me to start with posing myself- and one was You.
Am still sticky with V4 poses too- she IS horrible to work with, But I guess after the first 50 poses you figure out how You have to bend her so she looks pretty realistic LOL

Schön zu sehen, daß gute Dinge Weile haben und daß auch "alte Hasen" wieder zurückkommen.
Herzlich willkommen! :)


jewell posted Mon, 21 July 2008 at 2:09 PM

oh, YAY! Welcome back. I've not been around much myself, but it's so good to see you back and wanting to pose again.

V4 needs all the help she can get, but I'd love to see some poses with the basic poser figures like the G2 folks, Jessi, James, etc. And if you have any of the Sixus1 figures (several of which are free), I'd love to see what you could do with them. More monster/villian poses are always great.

And I still have your poses in my runtime. I just do the adjustments from fig to fig as necessary. :) I keep meaning to sit down and do a pose set for one of the Chinese Dragon-style figures out there, but haven't gotten around to it yet. I think you may be my incentive to get crackin'.

Hugs,

Let me add MY welcome-back to those from others.  It is nice to see/hear some of the giants of  the Poser saga who have left for various reasons, come back to enjoy and share their love of POSE-ing.

While free is always good, I've purchased your products in the past, and would gladly pay for them in the future.  Whether you offer products via a store -or- via PayPal, I'm in!!!!

As for requests, I'd be interested in some sets of poses dealing with various human emotions - smiles, laughing, melancholy, anger....  And yes, I would prefer these be for the V4/M4 wintage characters.

Thanks for your spirit of generosity and "Welcome Home!"
