There have been many different 3d horse models over the years (since 1999) that I have been using Poser. In terms of realism and posability they have come a long way yet some of the older models still have a place in your runtime.

A little bit if time on my hands and I had been really missing being able to use my huge library of textures that I’ve created over the years so instead of retrofitting around 60 textures I thought it would be quicker to remap the HWHorse obj UVs instead.

New Texture for Hivewire 3d Horse Harry I love working with this horse model, it poses amazingly and the way the mane and tail work with the model is sheer genius. On all of these renders I am only using the mane and tail that comes with the model, no post work painting hair in

[fluid][html tag_image_style=”imagestyles-38″] I’ve just been going through some of my back up dvds and found a carrara scene that I’d forgotten about, the AdHorse with some Carrara dynamic hair. It was made with Carrara 7 Pro so I wasn’t sure if it would work with Carrara 8 that I currently am using but it opened

Photoscape is a great free image editing and manipulation tool that I’ve been using for a couple of years as an adjunct to Photoshop. It has several tabs similar to Poser’s “rooms” layout with different tools in each one. There is an image browser, a basic editor, batch editor, page layout tool, image combine tool,

Note: This is an old tutorial that I wrote to help with morphing Poser hair in Cinema 4d however it was written for older versions of the software but as far as I know the steps should hold true for current versions. Cinema 4d by Maxon is a very powerful program and is excellent when
