WOOF! WOOF! Please tell me this is Open GL inside of Poser Pro?!? You are truly a Master At Work. I think you have built the "Poser Mod Squad" LOL!! Not at all what I was expecting with a refresh of "Buddy". The hair concept...wow! I take it there will be a "clean" texture & morph for bald looks as well? I've said it, you've said it, we all should say it " Simple is Beautiful, & this is Simply Beautiful"
Mec4D
Thank you I am happy you like the previews guys and gurls, and yes Alex this is only Open GL with ambient light and one spot, this preview show only the resolution 2029 x 2029 the original textures are 5000x5000 mean it will have even more details and quality at the final rendering, I did not render it yet b/c need to make the material tree, yes I will make also bald head morph and many extras as possible, this is longer work as one week I want him to be perfect in every inch so a big challenge for me here.. still working on the profile morph, I will show you as soon as I am done..

featherwitch
He's gorgeous!! Will definitely have to add him to my collection (although my computer might die over 5000 x 5000 px... but who cares, right? ) Haven't been able to play with Byson or Wendy much yet, but will very soon! Excellent work once again! :o)
