  • Instabought! Love this minotaur and love that I don't have to use G2M for that anymore. Thank you!!

    Glad to see he has feet!  Hooves just do not work for bipeds.

    I have a figure in the works with weird feet.

    And I found it pretty much necessary to include a morph for human-like feet to avoid the piles and piles of issues I'd have fitting most stuff otherwise.

    Playing around with it, love the look. The horns remind me a lot of Legend...

    I just think it should be noted that the tail does not come out of the middle of the back.

    In the promo pic, the tail sticks out at a bit of a sharp angle, to help work with the clothing, but the movement morphs on the tail are designed to help it lay in a more natural way. (also the underwear pulled down like it is in that promo shot makes it look like the butt is lower than it actually is.)

    The tail is actually directly above the buttocks.

    I am not saying it is completely natural in how it is attached, but please do not think that I have not given thought into making it as natural as I can given the limitations of the figure. Limitations which I attempted to work around with the included movement morphs for the tail, which can also be tweaked to your own likes in order to get a very natural look

    Great work! we can hope for an add-on product for TOR like a demon textures with wings maybe??

    I really liked TOR from the little I played around with him; except for one, -literally- small detail. That 'Grade A' tattoo/seal on the left side of his pelvis. I can see its use in, say, a sci-fi environment, but if I wanted to make, say an Ancient Times story, it is a "little" out of place, if one can't find a way to cover it (it could potentially have been a good idea to have it as an extra tattoo option like the maze one -which I really love as a concept and execution-). Other than that I don't mind the tail being higher on the spine, or the lack of hooved feet (in the Greek myth the Minotaur had just the body of a man and the head of a bull, there's nothing about hooved legs in it; I think that was a latter addition), and I really like the overall look of the character.

    That tattoo was a selling point for me, so fun XD

    But you can cut a piece of the torso map with soft edge and place it over the tattoo in LIE, then save a preset.

    I can't deny it's a fun spot that tattoo ... I just think it should be an extra option if you want it on or off.

    I know I could probably just cut from the oposite side of the pelvis and overlay it and save it as a new; it's just that when it comes to tattoo's I feel that it should be extra options, not pre-grafted in the skin. But then again, that's just my personal view on the matter. Still, even that small detail doesn't detract from it being a "Grade A" minotaur (or prevented me from insta-buying it the moment I saw it in the shop) ... smiley

    Tauran for M4, with the Freak4 morph dialed in, had always been my favorite.  Never upgraded to the later versions of Tauran.  But after seeing Tor, that's now going to change.  Great work.

    ...and yes to the genital textures

    Whaaaa? I recently returned the new Genesis 8 Cat World figure because it didn't come with gens. Upon giving me the refund, the DAZ support person admonished me for not looking closely at the product descriptions because gens are "always" called out separately in the list of textures--meaning I should've realized before buying.

    For that reason, when Tor was released, I checked: no gens called out separately, so I didn't buy it. The fact that you and DAZ support aren't on the same page might be affecting your sales.

    I will look into why they are saying that, because that is not the case

    Sorry about that.

    Side note...MOST of my characters come with gens textured. The only ones that dont are where the distortion around that area is too extreme for them to work nicely, or there are things like LAMH (in the cat world set) which would make too many complications to use nicely.
