Here's my latest offering coming soon to your Runtime.  The models feature Geometry Switching for the neck and gunboxes, so both variations are available to each model type.  I may yet have the skirt section switched to incorporate all the features into one Cr2.

There will also be sucker equipped versions for the traditionalists and, as before, a fully detailed underside smart prop.

Just for the record, these chaps are called STLB2 and STLB3.

Wow! These look great Sam.

By the way, sad news for Doctor Who fans this week with the death of Coroline John isn't it, what a lovely actress.

Yep, Dave, a sad loss.

The new models are now uploaded, pending approval.

And since early this morning, they have been available.

Say, in one of these various Dalek threads, did I correctly read that you're considering uniquely styled TARDIS consoles?

Sincerely,

Thanks for the new Daleks.

@ Bill - I can't remember but it's a possibility.

@ Al  - You're welcome and that's an excellent pic.

Erm... I was using Zoe to make some modifications to Antonia-WM already, and she really did leave her clothes in the other .pz3 file....  :unsure:

Loving all the Daleks, SamTherapy.  You are the Poser Dalek King!

I didn't think anything could top Zoe's catsuited crawl atop the TARDIS console, but you've achieved the near impossible.

A bit more seriously, that really IS a convincing likeness of her face.  How'd you do it?

Bill

Magnets, mostly.  Magnets, and loads and loads of cursing.  :lol:

It's been a WIP since I began using Antonia, in early 2010.  A slow process, full of seemingly endless revisions.  And cursing.

It sort of seems to me like I may have ripped off my gag for the above image from Coupling.  :unsure:  We need a Poser Jeff Murdock.

I decided that if you have a nude and a Dalek in a picture, some reference to... that photo shoot, you know... should be established.  :unsure:

Absolutely spot on with the pose!  I faresay we've both extensively studied those famous (infamous) Katy Manning snapshots. :biggrin:

Funny, during the 80s, those images were akmost the stuff of legend.  I had read about them, but never saw proof...until one particular coffee table retrospective about the series (can't remember which one) published a full page print.  Nowadays, they're just a Google search away. 😉

Cage - That Zoe likeness is incredible.  I hope you make it available.   I can't use WM Antonia, unfortunately but if there's any way to make that likeness work with the vanilla Antonia, I would really like to get me hands on it.

Also, thanks for the kind words but I think the accolade "Poser Dalek King" belongs to Mechmaster.  

Al - :lol:

Can you load .pmd morph injections?  Would you want the hair, as well (two versions, both of them inexpert models with idiosyncratic material handling...)? 

Depending on what you'd want, I might even be able to upload the files to this thread, or another.  The core of the character is a face morph, lashes morph, and a morph to enlarge the upper incisors slightly.  But the overall resemblance (such as it is) may or may not rely on specific face and eyelash texturing, as well as the hair.  Y'see, character morphs take a hellishly long time for me because I have a rather hard time recognizing what makes a resemblance work.  Which means I keep breaking it and having to backtrack to fix things.  :lol:

@ Bill - I'd make the world's worst queen, drag or otherwise.  :)  I very much doubt I could be called a Dalek King/President/Prime Minister or whatever, since there are thousands of incredibly talented modellers who can blow my efforts clean out of the water.  If it wasn't for Mechmaster and billy-home I'd never have even started.  

I am, however, always pleased to see my models being used and it's always nice to receive compliments. 

@ Cage - I guess I can load .pmd injections.  Poser 6 can handle 'em but I disabled the "Binary Morph Targets" option a long time ago.  If that's what's needed, I'll re-enable it then resave the character.  Yes, the hair would be great, too.  If you could let me know what texture to use and where to get it, that would be a big help also.

Don't re-enable binary morph targets!  :scared:  Indications are that they're still all SNAFUBAR.  You can load .pmd morph injections without enabling them, as long as you have P6+.

The eyebrow texture is particularly important, actually.  I used one of the Free Site eyebrow textures, and eyebrow placement and orientation can vary widely on Antonia textures.  Eyebrow placement is very important for any facial resemblance, and I've positioned the textured brows using morphs.  So use the wrong texture and things may look weird.

I'll have to see what I can get together which will have file sizes small enough for Rosity upload.  I don't like to use the free upload sites because things get lost there and/or aren't easy to update.  And I don't have access to my website at present.  E-mail may actually be necessary for full file transfers, but I'll see how much I can make generally available here, first.

Also, so to have taken your thread on a tangent.  😊

Many thanks, Cage.

Thread drift is inevitable in an open forum.  I really don't mind at all.

The attached contains a PMD injection for the Zoe Heriot face shape, eyelashes, and upper teeth.  This should work with any version of Antonia.  The .txt extension is added to enable file upload to 'Rosity.  Save the file as .zip.
