:( That is a bummer, but not enought to prevent me from buying it:) Can you post a pic of the texture without grafts so we can see what it looks like?

You would just get the “background” color on the untextured areas (dark grey for the “silver-blue” texture, dark greenish-brown for the “green speckle” texture), with no displacement or specular mapping.

So for example there will be an un-textured patch on the texture map that I can clone stamp and cover up?

Yeah, you could probably do that… although if you’re working in a 2-D paint program, there’s a lot of distortion on the maps, with the way the templates are mapped.  If you have a program that allows you to paint in 3-D right on the model, and do texture cloning, it would probably come out pretty good.

Cool:)

What program do you use for your projection painting hon?

Those alien morphs are seriously cool with this figure. What package to they come with? Is it one of the ones here?

Yeah, one of the Genesis creature morphs; I recommend to get the bundle, ‘cause then you’ll get bodily goodness too.

Great. I grabbed them when they came out, but haven’t had call to build any monsters of my own, so far. Thanks!

I Genx’d Joequicks m4 alien force. Those faces are truly unique. combine them with creature morphs and you’re in heaven.

Bought.  I put a picture in the PA sale thread.  I’d put it here as well, but I don’t want to spam it.

The webbed feet and hands are awesome.  Are they separate morphs?  It looks like a full body morph that works well with the creature morphs.

They are not morphs at all; they are geo-grafts. 

Um, hey, blondie9999… could you… could you perhaps write a manual for “how to do geo-grafting”, like that manual you did for rigging? About all the snags and problems you might encounter and so on..?

*waves a wad of cash*

I could… pay.

Ha—how VERY funny you should mention that…  because I’ve started a manual on advanced rigging, and since geografting was one of the things I wanted to cover, I learned geografting for that purpose—and this Aquatic Genesis was the result.  Alas, it turned into the project from hell, and took far, far longer than I ever imagined it would… but now that it’s out of the way, I can resume work on my rigging manual.

So, hang onto that-there wad of cash…
