Here's a suggestion... why not do plain, white, untextured renders of the various dragons available out there, all at the same display size and a 3/4 view from, say, the dragon's top right? That way people could compare directly. I'd reccomend about 600x500, and a roughly relaxed standing position, with a focal length of 110-120. You could also post a link where the particular dragon is available. By this, I mean the basic dragons, of course... the DAZ Dragon, Anton's Storybook dragon, the Ultimate Dragon, and so on. I'll post such images here, later, of my own Dracos Titanicus and Land Dragon. Anyone with any of the other dragons is hereby invited to do so, so all the dragon fans can get their fix, and tell which one best suits what they want!

I'd like to see a white render of the Puff and Drago characters for Daz Dragon if possible. This is a great thread. I've been going round and round about getting a dragon for 6 months. Thanks!

Wow... you sure have a lot of dragons, igohigh... Well, to my reckonning, we still need renders of the Adult hatchling, and Mock's dragon... just flat white, 600x500.... Anyone out there wanna post? Oh, and Drago, even though Drago is a DAZ dragon character...

Ahem ... I don't have any pictures to post, but I thought I'd share this link to Anton's original dragon freebie, as illustrated in post #7:
Don't forget that Anton also has an articulated dragon skeleton at DAZ, perfect for those dead/undead dragon characters. And blbarrett has a sea dragon here in the Renderosity Marketplace.

Here is Drago with the heavy body morph, spike tail prop, eys wide head morph and various other head morphs. Also two head fins and poseable whiskers. Plus there are a series of new spine spikes. All and more are in the total package.
Thanks for asking!

All of these, and i have yet to see a satisfactory traditional Chinese dragon. Bloodsong's dragon facttory comes closest, but the beard and horns were still not right (for me, that is). psniff!

Okay, we have most of the major Dragons shown here... now the only dragon left -THAT I KNOW OF- are Mock's dragon and the Storybook Dragon (I think, unless it's one of the ones above under another name). Will anyone with these go ahead and post them, please?

We still need your dragon, Mock, and your Storybook Dragon, Anton! Both are very good from what I've seen, and will likely do well in this little comparison!

There's still a couple of dragons by BryceTech to go too. MadYuri, It's not 100% certain yet, but it seems likely I'll be doing an EasyPose add-on for the Dragon Skeleton at some stage.

Anzan, perhaps I should do morphs like that for my Dracos Titanicus, eh? It's certainly muscular enough to pull it off. Mock, dude! Do I need to lasso you with an easypose whip from Ajax? Trust me, your dragon is awesome, and can only benefit here!

AFAIK, the Dracos Titanicus I posted, and many of the alternate morphs / etc for the DAZ dragon are here in the store, as is my Dracos Orientalis, which I haven't put up a pic of yet, and the DAZ Dragon, Adult Hatchling, and Hatchling are at DAZ. Most of the rest are former freestuff items or B-Bay items, many of which are no longer available. For example, I am currently looking for a permanent home for my Land Dragon... he is currently without hosting. ;_;

I'm SO glad that I'm reading this thread! Here's it's what 2 YEARS later and it still has life?? It would be nice to have links for some of the dragons that appear "lost to time". Anyone heard from rattler, if the dragon in #63 is available yet? Is he even still around? BTW was this guy mentioned here (rendo store)Way too many people take way too many things way too seriously.
Valandar posted Sun, 29 February 2004 at 7:42 AM
Ugh, looking back on that oriental dragon of mine, I see SOOO many ways it could be improved. The mesh for the head is simply horrible, and I suck at transmapping so the mane looks horrible, too. I also could have made the body Easypose, but someone else beat me to it (the easypose CR2 is still in freestuff, I believe) BTW, Gareee, what can I say... Poser people love dwaggys.

this thread is an old 'resource' thread showcasing pictures of all the poser dragons out there, free and otherwise. It used to be in the poser forum .. hadnt realised it got moved over .. weird.
why? so that we we can find them and also so new makers of dragons wont accidentally do 'repeats'. plus plagiarists cant get away with stealing an older mesh
if you dont want to look ..then dont. yeesh
nicked - thank you very much for the additions :) thats what I was hoping for

Absolutely. Can't argue with that.
But you still have to download the frickin reptiles (or at least the thread containing the things) before you know you don't want to look at them. Throw them back in the Poser bin if that's where they came from.
Obviously I'll not re-visit this bandwidth-sucking thread from now on :)
