Subject: Prop or figure search


tonymouse ( ) posted Mon, 11 January 2010 at 6:45 PM · edited Thu, 31 October 2024 at 10:15 PM

I am lookng for a figure or prop most simiar to the scaloped Fin/crest found on image comic's Savage Draqgon. See link  http://www.dynamicforces.com/images/davagedragonbust.jpg

I know I have seen somthing very similar but I can't remember where, and all of my searches have come up empty.

Traveler's Organica 2 - Mermen (for Michael 2) comes immediately to mind.

Thanks LD, I happen to have that set already, I looked at the head fins they are a double set with both curving outward, I tried to reduce them on the x axis to about 4% to merge them and flatten them. they look ok but the spines are pointing back rather that forward. I'll try it to see if  I can make it work, but if anybody has any other suggestions??

www.animotions.com has a bunch of comic freestuff.

Is there any reason you can't use Savage Dragon's actual fin?  Take a profile picture of Savage Dragon into PhotoShop, cut out the fin, and use it to create a transparency map (and texture map).  Then just apply the transparency to a square primitive.

The flat square will only work in profile or distant scenes but will not look correct if viewed diagonally.

Thanks for more feed back and sugestions, I did check at animotions actually, I didn't see anything that would fit the bill, and as for a primative with transparencly, I may end up doing that but I agree with hborre it will look funky if it is any thing but profile.

I found this for now: a freebie head fin over at RunitmeDNA, I am still on the hunt for something bigger, taller and  with wider scalloped segemnts. but if this helps anybody else.[

Ok, don't laugh!  But have you thought about a hand fan?

Embed it into the head, parent it.

of course you would have to do some work in a graphic program first so far as textures and a transmap is concerned.  You can use a transmap to scallop the edges. And some simple tricks to get the ridges of the fin.

I'm sure I'll post it in the freebie section here sometime, but for now here it is. Maybe you can make a texture for it (maybe I'll do it at a later time). But what would be nice is if you make a good Pic for me.... 800x800 px to use for a promo pic for the freebie.

Pm me if you wanna send a pic!

I started a pic but Poser refused to re o-pen the file after I saved it and then Real  life struck and I haven't had a chance I hope to have something soon though. cuz it is perfect!! and I love it. It is so totally the savage dragon, I know some one over at animotions put up a pic there using it.
