I did a couple more-feminine versions of Jessi than the ones I posted
earlier today. They each have slightly different faces, eye poses, and
camera angles. In a few more days, maybe I'll remember more about how to
get around in Poser. *lol*

All are great! You can certainly teach all of us a few new tricks.

I imagine (and gather) that Poser is not so easy to get around in
unless you use it regularly. Not familiar with it, I don't even know
exactly what an original looks like and what can be and is added by
the user :-)

Was the original you posted something existing you then started
working on to get these newer ones? They are without doubt feminine
now, and a lot softer in overall appearance than the original and
earlier ones you did. I especially like the dreamy, somewhat
questioning eyes of 3 (the one that shows up as the second
attachment in OE).

ps sorry if I don't make sense... when the heatwave broke and the
downpour started, it seems a bug (virus) found its way into me, and
it's making my head buzz :-)

Great job, Lori. I like the first one better, with the slightly
open lips. The other one looks like she just ate a lemon (to me,
anyway, LOL) ;-)

There are so many things you can control, it can be pretty daunting, Joske.
There are controls for the figure itself, the face in particular, lights,
cameras, poses, clothing and props, materials. (And that's not to mention
that hair comes in three different varieties, and that some "poses" are
actually used to apply materials.)

Yes, the PNG versions are the original renders straight from Poser. As for
the two Jessis, I like the bottom one, too. Had fun coming up with a
not-so-usual expression.

Made sense to me. :) Hope you shake that bug, though.

Hehe, thanks, Michelle. Sounds like I was successful on the bottom one. I
was trying for a not-really-pleased-with-the-situation expression. :^D

I gathered a bit or two from RonV and Adriaan about the clothing,
but if I read you correctly, you have an existing head not done by
you as a starting point? I think even an existing head or whole body
would be hard to mould into what you want in this program.

I have seen you do faces (PSP, I think) before. I can see you enjoy
that. Me, I think I must be a dresser :-)

You start out with a model of a whole figure, body (nude or casually
clothed) and head (bald). You can then mold these as you see fit, add or
modify materials, add hair, clothing, props - all of which you can also
modify. Add and adjust lights. Add and adjust cameras. It's sort of
paper dolls on steroids and in three dimensions. ;)

You mean some of my digital facelifts done with the clone brush? Yeah, I
like doing those. *lol* And I also enjoy photographic portraiture. The
reason I'm so into portraits in Poser right now, though, is that I want
to make a model of a friend and surprise her with it before she gets
back from vacation in a couple weeks. For that I'll be using PSP to chop
up a couple photos and meld them into a Poser head template, then apply
that to Jessi's head and mold it to look like my friend. At least,
that's the plan. Once I manage that, I'll be moving on to dress-up, I'm
sure. And hairstyling. :)

Aha, I think I got it now. It's like working with rock or clay, you
have the shapes but not the details. I knew there were more or less
developed models out there, but what you do is practically start
from scratch.

This sounds like a very nice project to do, lots of personal input.
Lots of work too, but worth the time. Ooohh the clothes, I'd love to
see those when(ever) you are done. I suppose you won't be painting
them on with PSP like I occasionally do with a shape from Ron or
Adriaan. I enjoy doing that, but I know there are tools (textures,
meshes, lighting, etc) to have Poser do it.
