Because it takes me SO long to finish my more complex renders... here is my "cowpoke's horse" ready to go in what I'm working on now...
the yellow color is my 'camp fire lighting' in prep for assembling my cowboy and his horse in fire-lit night scene... I'm proud of my
bedroll I created in Poser with the high rez ball and the morph tool... it's got Fabi's blanket texture with displacement turned off,
and I did post work with bits of the rein to 'tie' the bedroll to the saddle... oh and the horse is reaching for an apple, hence his open
mouth... (to show off this AMAZING true western bridle BIT for one thing! LOL!) I love how the reins allow for individual posing!!

Great render Lyne, I can't wait to see it finished and getting that apple (at the moment he looks like he's laughing at me :p)

Rae, BEAUTIFUL!!! I loved clicking to see the full size version! :)
I forgot to mention click to make bigger (I usually do if its a thumbnail). I'm really happy with the way the texture on Dusks horse looks in Iray, you wouldn't guess it was originally from the Friesian :p (in 3Delight it doesn't look so realistic).

Here is a slightly different angle, a bit smaller and using the HDRi as a background and lighting (its the same HDRi I used for the lighting of the other one).
The textures are the ones Faery_Light's working on for her new pack.

I'm loving the hooves she's done for both and the mottling around the eyes and nose on the Appy are perfect :)

Thanks everyone.

Chris, the first one is a stock image from Deviant Art (info in the description on the media page) and the 2nd one is just the HDRi (I love it, its my fave, great lighting and pretty hills :D)

coolness Rae!!

I was messing around in my Poser looking for something to create "saddle bags" for my cowboy scene... and I rediscovered the old Horsefeathers (freeStuff, Rendo I believe, not sure if it's still there) SIDE SADDLE for the P4 horse... well... next thing you know... !! I did lighten the image so you could see it against the default harry coat...
