RELEASED HiveWire Dog Is Underway

Final tweaks to the morph, (making his teeth bigger made him look a lot better) and JCMs. Also made some bear-specific expressions, and working on some poses. This project could actually be done in a couple days. Bears are such magical creatures. ^.^

Looking good. Needs more bulk and hump simulating scruff but looks good. I assume this is a Bear and not the bear dog?!

Thanks! ^.^ I do have a shoulder height morph to allow for a more pronounced "hump."

To be clear, I am making a bear. The bear dog images were just the bear morph applied at lower intensity.

The bear looks really good, Sparky! So nice to see all that can be made from one mesh.

I'm not sure what HiveWire's policy is on clones, but here's something that might make that job easier: a HW Horse clone for the dog! ;-)
I think they are ok if they are for your own use but not to sell/give away.
But if you ask Chris or Lisa they might be ok with making it an official release since they are both HW models and they did release some for Dusk/Dawn/Luna so they can wear each others clothes? (and if they are ok, it would be awesome to have ones for the cats too!)

What a sweet looking clone. Horsey with dog feet. Awesome.

I'll chat with Lisa and crew about clone options this weekend. But I like what Rae is saying.

Hey if it helps advance HiveWire content, and content for HiveWire could be an awesome thing.
I know some of us here are big on fantasy so having Harry's wonderful tack fit the other critters would be awesome! (I guess weird stretching might be an issue with somethings but you get that with auto-fit so you either live with it or not LOL)

Yeah, loving this. You are definitely talented and very speedy. If you can indeed get this together in short order that would be terrific.

You and I need to get these doggy breeds out too.

By the way, I have a newspaper article from the late 1800's about my Great Great Grandfather that was killed by a Grizzly Bear in Cache Valley Utah. He used to trap problem bears that were raiding farmers crops and livestock. And a big bear charged my Grandfather, my Grandfather shot it while charging but his gun misfired and he got mauled, and died of gangrene 5 days later. I'm giving you the short version. But ever since I heard the story as a boy I've been fascinated with Bears, and Bear attacks.

When I saw the movie Revenant with Leonardo DiCaprio and Tom Hardy, it reminded me of the brutality of bear attacks, and my Great Great Grandfather Henry Gates.
