Poser and Daz Studio Horses[/caption]
Well I’ve shelved my Daz Horse 2 MilHorse uv project as CauriB over on the Daz3d forum has released her project for free download including the remap to the MilHorse. She has done a superb job of it and even kindly included a fitting shape so that you can use all your old Mlhorse tack …
Whilst I love the idea of the new mapping on the DHorse2 with it’s large separate head map for super detailed textures, I have so many of my own custom made photoreal textures for the MIlHorse that I was gutted at the thought of not being able to use them with the new horse model.
Opened my email today to be informed that Daz3d have a new horse model out. Apparently this one used Genesis technology with weight mapping. I’ve had to pop out just now but just bought the pro bundle and will finish downloading it when I get back home and run it through it’s paces.
Well this is annoying! I finally found the pen for my graphics tablet (hiding between bottles of nail polish on my desk side…) and settled down with my render and Photoshop to finish up the portrait of my cheeky, chunky welsh cob, Cruz and as I often do got carried away….
Now after producing several variations of my image I just can’t decide on which one I like the best. This image is intended to hang in my hallway so I want the best one, but full of cold and feeling the tug of a hot bubble bath and my warm bed I need some help. Which one of the above images do you like the best? Also do you have any constructive suggestions to improve it?
Once I find the pen for my ageing wacom intuos graphics tablet I can put the finishing touches (hair) to this digital portrait of my own horse Cruz.
I have been working on a new dapple grey texture for my heavy draft horse morph for the Daz Millennium Horse figure. I have modeled this morph on the heavy european type draft horse such as the Breton
My Native Pony morph and texture set for the Daz3d Millennium Horse model is now on sale, reduced by 35% to $6.50! This package is based on Ronnie, a real life Welsh Section C (Welsh Pony of Cob Type) owned by my daughter who is a British breed of native pony. This package includes two …
I just came across these old renders on my Picasa account and thought I’d upload them here.
They are from around the time Carrara 6 Pro was released and it was my aim to create realistic dynamic hair for the Millennium Horse model.
What I learned was that it took an awful lot of work to prepare the MilHorse model for use with dynamic hair in the first place as it has three seperate polygon meshes
YouTube – Some of my work with the various 3d horse models available
Well I’ve finished up a new composite image, entitled Red Gold. It was rendered in Poser 6 with the scenery painted in Photoshop. I also painted the horses mane and tail in Photoshop and blended the horse with the background.
The following renders are samples of my texture work on the Daz 3d Millennium Horse a.k.a. the MilHorse. I’ve made all of them from scratch using high resolution photographs including some from my own horses, combined with hand painting in Photoshop.
Well today whilst waiting for a render to finish, I checked out Daz3d’s news letter and couldn’t resist when I saw that Predatron has a new LoRez Horse model out! I bought it straight away and really like it, it doesn’t have many morphs (as of yet *wink*) but is ideal for the job for …
