I externalised the Arachnid OBJ, cleaned up the other piccy, added some landscape...

they looks like the bugs in "Starship Troopers" <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/biggrin.gif" alt="" />

That's because they are !! <br /> <br /> Um, I'd really worry when a program's bugs become smart enough to choose appropriate avatars...

Posette returned with some heavy-duty on-line debugging tools...

<b>Posette welcomed the chance to test-drive an ESA prototype Mars Marcher.</b>--- <br /> <br /> This began as a free 'Walker.3DS' from Eric Saltel's huge archive. After a while, I hacked off the head / turret in Draw3D and re-saved body, which also reduced the number of group / colour sections from ~95 to one (1). <br /> <br /> The flight seat was a Renderosity freebie, scaled to suit Posette rather than a space-suited super-hero. Several scaled Poser-prop cylinders made a nice base. I tried a Poser-props ball as a canopy, but it did not look right. Back to Eric Saltel's archive for some 'soccer' balls. I found one where the bevels were coloured / grouped seperately to the faces, set the latter translucent. Still, it did not look quite right. Then I thought to reinstate the Poser ball, with a slightly smaller diameter to create 'double glazing'. Gotcha !!

All together now... <br /> <br /> "These Boots Are Meant for Walking !"

"Now SMILE for the Cameras !!"

Great work <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_clap.gif" alt="" />

That machine is really impressive Nik !! <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/notworthy.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/thumb.gif" alt="" /> You're making BIG THINGS <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_dance.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_dance.gif" alt="" /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_dance.gif" alt="" /> !!

D'uh, more like playing with Duplo Lego... <br /> <br /> I'm no Artist. <br /> <br /> Um, I've still got that half-idea for the next 'BBB' piccy...

<b><span style="font-size:14px;">The Third Instar of a pseudo-arachnid was a solitary hunter...</span></b> <br /> --- <br /> <br /> Yes, it is a Royloo's monster Worm plus two sets of mouthparts from a Bernie's Worm. Posette's outfit is MayaDoll Basic vest and shorts, plus 'power floosie' hikers. Spears and caltrops are from Renderosity freebies. Terrain is Hys temple ground... <br /> --

<b><span style="font-size:14px;">A Third Instar took a lot of killing...</span></b> <br /> --- <br /> IIRC, Posette's hood is a Ghastley freebie, probably from Sadie costume. Technically, it is hair... <br /> ---

<b><span style="font-size:14px;">Finally, the coup de grace...</span></b> <br /> ---

<b><span style="font-size:14px;">Infiltrating the psuedo-Arachnids' nest as a GHEB was surprisingly easy...</span></b> <br /> --- <br /> D'uh, would have been much easier if I could stop the cross-talk between GHEB limbs and P_4's cat-suit...

Tormie, I have made nothing *original*, I've just used freebies, usually those documented in 'Interesting Links'... <br /> <br /> Yes, I run GeomStripper, correct CR2 / PP2 to point to OBJ, persist with C-D 2.7 etc etc, but that's all. <br /> <br /> I'm no Artist, just a retired Scientist with a whimsical and oft-surreal sense of humour... <br /> --- <br /> <br /> D'uh, remember that news-item about a fossilised giant frog ?? Think of the frog-spawn... <br /> <a class="post-url" href="http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2008-02/nsf-sd022008.php" target="_blank">http://www.eurekalert.org/pub_releases/2008-02/nsf-sd022008.php</a>

<b><span style="font-size:14px;">Don't Cross The Beams !!</span></b> <br /> --- <br /> <br /> Posette's field test of the ZXV4 suit was briefly interrupted... <br /> .
