Experimenting with existing textures on Stephanie. I loaded 5 Stephanies side-by-side, and went thru applying textures I thought would be interesting. The first 5 are: A Vic texture - Anya Ed for Michael M2-Map1 (DAZ) Catherina Harders Vampire Blonde Michael by George Deep

Ooops! completely forgot about Nudity Flag!

::snort coffee through nose... again:: Leatherguy, it wasn't until you mentioned it, that I realized they ARE nude. Scientific analysis and prurient interest doon't occupy the same circuits. This is quite an interesting bunch. Thank you for the comparison. The better fits seem to be the extreme examples: gargoyles and such, but Lyrra's batch will see a lot of use in the next several weeks. Carolly

Whoa! Yeah baby :) 8 of my textures in one place :) BTW Leather-Guy, the Spike texture is mine - the Spike morph is William the bloody :) And just to remind all y'all - you do know that the "Shades of Michael" textures are okay to modify and redistibute? and to use on free characters? you just can't sell them - modified or not. And yes - ok to use in commercial renders. Just to remind people - although Albert is about the same color as the original DAZ vicki textures, and has some of the same light/dark skin patches that was done deliberately on my part so that they would match. This texture is all original work - some photos, some handpainting. All the 14 other ShoM textures are based off of Albert in some way. I used Vick's textures as INSPIRATION only. (I got flamed on this recently. Sore spot - sorry) Have fun! And there are 7 more textures - including a tiger, a green alien like the blue one, and an asian with red dragon tattoo. Lyrra

"embarassed blush" Er, sorry Lyrra, I tried to find readme's for all the textures. I love the Shades of Michael series, & thought I could go by memory. My Bad.

Yep, I tried Lyrra's textures first thing :) I'm sooooo glad I have those, they are good textures to begin with, but now they can do double duty! Thanks Lyrra! Pendy

For the record, I believe there are 2 textures out there for Mike called Jonathan. One of them is mine. I tried to find Unrealsk8er's version but couldnt find it anywhere. Mine's not too bad on Stephanie either. I just need to make a version with different eyebrows and less hair (LOL).

That Eklan texture is awesome I must download that one! :)

Whups! Another error - I just realized the one described as DAZs Stephanie Med texture is actually Stephanie "plain-out-of-the-.EXE". (I've really got to take better notes......)

and how does Mike look with her out of the box texture? i can't compare cause i don't have either of them.

And Eklan also comes in green :) You might recognize the texture - it's been used in a store preview and also Bloodsong made a character (male sea pixie) using it. I know for a fact that at least 3 entries into the Mike2 contest have that texture - at some point DAZ will get sick of it:) Glad all ya'll like the textures :) modest blush Not annoyed with ya LeatherGuy, just wanted to set the record straight - in case someone wanted to find the texture. :) Lyrra "I paint the emperors new clothes" Madril

Lyrra, where can we find your free textures? Sorry-- I'm taking the lazy route and just asking rather than going and looking. ;) They look excellent!

Yes, please, i would like to look at the Shades of Michael--they aren't in Free Stuff any more. Do you have a web site link?
