Ive got some glasses available at http://www.geocities.com/Paris/Tower/5135/Glasses.zip I've got a pair similar to teh above with pads on them Maybe tyhey can give you ideas. I tried making them figures at first but I found making them props with morphs easier and and more manageable. But if you want to take them and make them figure feel free to use teh meshes "Phil" Hokusai

Bushi, don't forget to add curvature to the lenses so the reflections look right. The thing that always gives away fake glasses in the movies is the fact that they're made of flat glass, and the same applies in Poser etc.

Al - I can see where you're going with this. I think that the nose bridge is a little wide too. To fix it, I'll make the bridge a seperate group so it can be adjust. I'll also make the stems for the nose pads, the pads themselves and the temple pieces adjustable. Phil - Thanks, I've seen your glasses and they are very good. I wanted to start with some standard wire frames and round lenses for the first one. I will definitely look at yours for a future Pprop. Maz - I didn't forget the curve. I know that you like having the details right. ;-) You really can't see it because of the lighting and camera placement but the lenses have been curved on both sides and beveled on the edges. Once I get them right, I'll do another image that shows that off better.
