...is trying to recreate yourself. That's one of the first things I did with Poser4 when I got it - well after doing horse pix ;-) - and I was able to come up with a posette mini-me that was a reasonable aproximation. Then I got Vicky and fruitlessly tried to do a Vicky version. I just could not get Vicky to look like me. Then Vicky 2 came out and I have finally been able to get close. A big thanks to William the Bloody for his Vicky2 Marilyn Monroe character with out which I wouldn't have been to get this close. It still need some tweaking but I think I'm getting close. Top and bottom is VIcky, middle is a pix of me taken at Xmas.

Hay thats great, no easy task either. I think you have captured your look perfectly.
I should have a go at doing mine. Thing is I doubt if I could overcome the temptation to turn that "old" dial too far to the left :)

Yes I have to agree, a very difficult task and very well done. When I made myself in poser it worked out pretty well, I don't think mike would do for the way i look.

That's darling. Great job.

WOW! Really nice job. Two suggestions that might get you a bit closer. 1) Chin (point of chin) could be a tee bit wider. 2)From your picture, you show very little eye lid. If there is a way to morph your posette to have a little less eye lid, I think you'll be dead on. Good luck!

It looks quite realistic to me. you show very little eye lid That likely varies with how far open or closed her eyes are at the time.

Depending on how realistic you want to go (this model is adorable on its own merits), the upper lip needs thinning and the divot smoothed out, the top of the bridge sent inward and narrowed, and the cheek lines deepened. All of these are custom morphs but it can be done. You resemble the Sullivan clan of Western Massachusetts strongly. Any Irish kin there?

Very cute! and what about a Poser kitty to go with your doppleganger? Something Siamese, i'm guessing. (Huh, i wish the Poser cat looked as much like a cat as your virtual person looked like you.)

Breathtaking... I shall call her "Mini-Krakadarr". Your stock is rising #2. Anthony "Evil" Hernandez Curious Labs

Yep. I agree with the other folks that this looks like you. Here's a thought: the original reminded me of Marilyn, so now I have to figure out whether or not you remind me of Marilyn ;-) I keep scrolling back up to compare, and the more I look, the more "essence of Krakadarr" it becomes. Which leads me to something I've been thinking about lately. I got Poser to re-create images in my head of "ideals" (was it Plato who discussed the whole "ideal" thing?). I've since wanted to recreated photo-realistic images of "real life" people/things, but am starting to formulate this idea from all the symetrical faces, smoothly styled hair, etc. that I want these digital images to continue to be an ideal, with great lighting and no redeye (you left out the red eye from the photo ). My own face is ever so slightly crooked from breaking my nose three times and having a horrible orthodontist. Just "real world" enough to be hard to poserize, especially with the dearth of morphs to make P4Dork more Nerdish... So, to get to the point.. It's rare that a poserized image looks like the real person. I think it takes the right face in the first place. Mini-Krakadarr has been one of the rare exceptions, as has a lot of the work I've seen here. You guys are a great bunch of artists/friends. GrayMare
