Awesome,  U da Man

Bluto, your vacation time is yours to allocate.  If you want to spend four days with your family and feast in a state of thankfulness, that’s fine.  But on the fifth day . . . [wicked grin]

OK I was playing around with one of Mylochka’s Andorran textures and struck on this idea for a pinup. Of course she has her ever present antenna rings in and her favorite ride that she won in a poker game on some no name world a while back . I will be posting a larger and slightly changed version on my DA page later.

No, its not Star Trek but since some, if not most are Star Wars fans too, I figure I would post about it here too.

Comming soon to F3D…

Oh by Odin, YES!!

I look forward to this, as I’ve been hungering for Star Wars models to play with, in Poser. Hopefully, you’ll knock out a Millennium Falcon, an X-Wing and Y-Wing, too. Also, if you happen to convert any of the Star Wars sets (corridors, etc), that would be awesome.

Always love your Trek stuff, and they’re always a joy to play with, but bringing some Star Wars flavour to the party never hurts.

Can only hope to get an updated TARDIS model, too. *hints cast out far and wide*.

Now on deviant art - Communication Officer Poses for the G2 Females

After the Thanksgiving holidays, I’ll start on the others.

I’m so happy to see you doing these conversions of my old pose sets!

I’m so happy to see you doing these conversions of my old pose sets!

I am glad you like it.

It is going to take a while to work my way through all of them - I am using a lot of figures,  I have a number of newer figures done for the captain’s poses (Alyson 2, Miki4, Antonia & My Michelle), but I am having an issue with my converted Courageous outfits.  As soon as I figure out what the problem is, I’ll add them to the collection.

As an added bonus, I am also getting the DAZ Gen3 figures converted to the new bridge set as well.

If someone needs a very cool TOS Shuttle in 3DS or MAX format , take a look at this :

I thought the bit about the figures was just a play upon toy adverts.  But I see Raul actually modeled sitting figures of the “Magnificent Seven” for use with the shuttle.

(They are indeed a separate download.)

Sincerely,

Looks more than a little bit like them, too. BTW, about those new models, after using PoseRay to convert to OBJ I can get the TOS Big E looking really good in D|S with little difficulty (apart from the red/green running lights coming out both green, and I can’t open the hangar bay doors to look at that great little shuttlebay). But the TMP travelpod is iffy — something about the TGA files seems to rub D|S the wrong way. I tried converting the TGAs to TIFs, with no luck. Anyone? Haven’t tried either of the Galileos yet.

Haven’t worked with the shuttles yet, but I have experimented with the crew.  I initially loaded them into Pose-Ray and then loaded the converted .OBJ into UV Mapper for “clean up”.  No concave, degenerate, collinear or even inverted facets.  I swear this is probably the “cleanest” mesh I’ve loaded into UV Mapper.  With no repairs needed, I imported the .OBJ into Poser Pro 2012.  Other than tweaking the highlight values, I didn’t need to do anything.

In fact, it seems I didn’t even have to pass the data through Pose-Ray or UV Mapper.  As an experiment, I imported the original .3DS file into Poser and the final result looked just as good as the twice tweaked data.  (The quick render depicts the imported .3DS file.)

Sincerely,

Bill

I imported Predatron’s David Character Morphs (http://www.daz3d.com/shop/david-character-morphs) into Genesis via Generation X.

I like result of the Cardassian morph, but I need to work on a texture and find the right hair.
