ROFL! Great job, Jackson! And yes, I had a day just like that yesterday; it's just about that same temperature here, too! :D

Thank you all for the kind remarks. This was my first-ever post and, since I'm not an artist, I had to go for laughs instead. A couple points: My Poser imports have worked flawlessly since I got Vue. It asked for poser.exe once and that was it. Also, can anyone think of a way to make realistic looking tracks of a person crawling on hands & knees thru the sand? I sure couldn't. Thanks again. Glad you liked the scene.

I think Gary Larson would approve, too. :) A couple methods for making footprints was recently discussed in this thread (at the URL). Maybe that info will help. :)

Thanks Varian, I would hope that he would. I'd seen that thread and tried some of the things mentioned. But those are foot prints. I wanted to make tracks of a person crawling on their hands & knees through the sand. The above pic is the best I could do (in the time alotted anyway).
