I'm working on a futuristic Knight. I've got the right leg/boot to put on yet and a weapon for him. But he still seems to need some lower body armor. Does anyone know where I can d/load some? Also, I want to combine the helmet and the head to make one part. How can I do this? **Credits** Base Figure........ Bodysuit Man (I don't know who made this, so please let me know). Helmet/Shield...... [WhiteCrow3D](http://www.poser-props.co.uk), Care of http://www.poser-props.co.uk Boots.............. Phil Hosukai Shoulder Pads...... George Deep Paul

There are some "Boot covers" At the PropsGuild in the Downloads-Clothes section. They are for the Calf muscle region. The model looks like its coming along Nicely :O)

oOOo very nice are you going to make the boots conforming props so we can mix/match or are they only really good on this figure? very cool idea...as for a weapon, I'd be loathe to suggest a lightsabre, but what about a variation, some sort of electronic scyth/sickle? That would be futuristic while keeping the knight look SewerRat

WIP = Work In Progress :) The boots are actually from Phil's excellent Dr. Doom figure (available from the 3D Comic Collective (link on the right) and are part of the figure. I'll e-mail Phil and ask him if he has any objections to making them conformable, then I'll give it a go. I'd planned on giving him a light-sabre. WhiteCrow3D have an excellent one on the CD I just brought from them. You're idea, though, is interesting and I'll see what I can come up with. Thanks for the info on the calf-armor, I'll go and have a look :) Paul

Great stuff! As for combining parts... I'm probably speaking out of turn (shoot me down - I have't got Poser 4 yet) but I would try merging them in Compose and then assigning different materials to the head and the helmet in the geometry file. (Don't forget to rename the merged part back to head):) Berge
