So next up I want to get a few more models built, so it will be a little while until the next issue.

That noise you heard was Wireds head exploding. Fun issue, died at the last page

Rev, this was an awesome piece of work, and only a dab of cheesecake - I'm impressed!

Loved the Nogi page - good stuff there.

my head was well and truly exploded by the time I got the lawn mowed, sorry.

Looks good, except for the position of the Bone Daddy on page 7. He looks like he's suffering from serious spinal deformity in that stance.

I think Poser has some serious uncanny valley problems no matter what you do with the figures. Despite that, well done, Shayne. Love the "sardines"
bit.

Thanks Bob

Poser does have limitations; most of which can be overcome with the application of time.

Lots of time.

I know some artists who will labour for hours and hours on a single render, comprising multiple layers with multiple lightsources and then further post work.
I have done renders like this. They have their place.

This project is not one of them.

I try and balance storytelling, graphics and time.

One of the other issues is that there is far more limited support for the male figures under poser; both in free and commercial resources. This means that for
the male cast I have to expend a lot more time in creating/modifying elements. Right now I am building my wish list for the next issue which will be set in
Steel Canyon. I want Outcasts, Trolls, and possibly Council.

Plus I need to build models for more Legendary cast members; which is going to be the hardest part. COH allows great costume detailing, but some of those
costumes are very hard to replicate in Poser. I want to do Space Mage at some point, but her big hand cannons are tough. Right now the models on the drawing
board are

Bella Fuego (Hot Librarian costume and Classic costume)

Morgan MacHine

Superball

Numero Catorche (I need a straight man, and it is his turn - Sorry Wide)

Emerald Blast

Shizuru (I would like to say it is a straight role...)

I also have to convert the flat screen shots I have been using to a true 3d environment, so I don't have to worry as much about scaling.

Shayne

Shayne, I sent you some screenshots for Numero. Did they get to you? They're a little dark, so I can redo them if you need me to.

So, wait. Has anyone found the ninja yet? 'cause I've been looking, and I don't see them...

I'm bad at these sorts of things...

Oh sure. I found them in a few seconds. If you know 'How not to be seen' you can easily find others.

Great work so far Rev, but if you think Numero's your 'Straight Man' have a look at this:

I actually found 9..

incredibly simple, once you figure out the trick.

They're all standing behind Nogi, ready to flip out.
