On a whim, I decided to try making a geometry inside Poser 12, using only Poser 12, the hir-res ball prop, and the Poser morph brush.

I used a reference photo from the famous OtterCity group on Facebook.

I continued coaxing the shape out of the base geometry.

And here's my little static geometry of a Singapore smooth coated otter, created entirely within Poser 12 software.

Next step would be to refine the sculpt. I will not make it realistic. Probably more cute anime style.

Refined the limbs and added the ears

Hmmm they resemble meerkats to a degree ...

Well, I went and made up an armour for the otter. For that, I used Shade3D for the geometry. I took the finished armour back into Poser 12 and created material zones for the parts I wanted to apply shaders to. I used Cycles Root Surface and Cycles shader nodes. I rendered using SuperFly and annotated the images using Clip Studio paint EX.
Just a kawaii Singapore Armoured Otter - nothing realistic.

Brilliant! I never thought of using the hi-res ball.

@RobZhena - I may try other kawaii shapes as well. A bit of simple fun.

( Small clarification on opening post reference image - it was a re-post by the OtterCity, so it appeared in their timeline.)
