Interesting idea!
Looks like you're on the right track with the texture. (I haven't created a skin from scratch; so I don't any input to offer.)

It's not what you look like, when you're doing what you're doing;
It's what you're doing, when you're doing what it looks like you're doing.

That is very different.

Well She is very strange... you need to add some bumb map to the "cow skin" ...

very strange and to say that I'm fond of mangas ...

Interesting idea. Perhaps the addition of horns. a cow bell and as already suggested some bump maps for the cow skin.

_______________

I've built a cow-bell in MAX and was thinking about horns... and a tail... (or maybe not). Was thinking about possible face morphs as well, but the whole idea got lost in the shuffle.

The bump map would be necessary, in any case.

Am I the only one who thinks they named it Windows because it is a major pane? BA-DUM BOOM!!

Interesting idea here. I feel horns and a tail would complete this nicely. Keep up the good work!

I am smiling.

I missed this somehow, did you ever finish the texture, I'd be interested (V2=cow, makes sense to me )

_______________

No... but its very high on the list once I start doing anything with CGI again... almost (almost...!) at that point now.

I think it's been two and a half years since I've seriously fired up Poser or 3D MAX - even though I've upgraded them both during that time. (Went from P5 to PPro2010...and all those in between... sheesh.)

As for Vicky 2 being somewhat bovine... yeah. Kinda why I chose her. Initial tests were done with a somewhat indignant Posy. I don't think she minded the patterns so much as the fact that the bucket of paint was cold!
