I dunno. Ever seen a baby sleep?I'm loving that second render. It always amazes me that cats like that pose. To me it looks like you need to be a contortionist to even come close. I guess cats/kittens are a lot more flexible than we humans are.
Seriously, how is that arm not broken?

Cats and kids, kids and cats. Can't tell 'em apart sometimes.

I appreciate the little note on the image. Gotta love the internet.

Awww, what a sweet looking kittie.
Yes, I wondered the same thing, as I already made a mistake with Stezza's Tink, so didn't want to make another gender error.
I'm not sure I replied, but he is male!

Paris and Tuvok say hi.
Not to mention Ensign Almost-As-Boring-as-Doctor-Crusher. I could take or leave Chakotay; he never generated strong feelings in me one way or the other beyond being a horrible, horrible stereotype (which is what happens when your "Native American advisor" is a con artist ). Chakotay just doesn't stand out when you have a bipolar captain, a rage monster engineer, an angry Vulcan first officer (what's with all the angry people on this show?), a bartender trying to simultaneously be Quark and Guinan and failing badly at both, and a cocky terrorist at the helm. My one friend suggested that Russ and Beltran should have swapped roles, and I'm inclined to agree: Beltran would have made a better Vulcan and Russ would have made a better terrorist (see DS9 "Invasive Procedures").

I liked voyager as a kid. I liked Chakotay for some reason. Tuvok was okay but something seemed off with him.

I got confused about Spot Data's cat. Was that cat male or female?

Where was any male cats to make Spot a mum?

Spot was about five different breeds, and was male until the writers decided they wanted "her" to be pregnant. My theory: "she" was a Founder spying on the Enterprise.
(Or at least one of the hundred Changeling infants they sent out, like Odo and Laas.) Chester is my personal favorite Trek animal, though; he really should have appeared in more than two episodes.eclark1894

You know, I had never seen the LAMH tutorials before, so I went to you tube today and took a gander. I didn't know this, but LAMH seems to work the same way Blender does with growing hair. Unfortunately I don't own the HW cat yet, so I'm gonna have to try this with some other animal, but I'm going to try and achieve that kind of outcome with Blender. If it works I'll post a render and a tutorial in the Blender forum here.
So I made this thread sticky again. At least for the time being. Laurie and I have been chatting lately about more for our House Cat. She's getting very close to having her Siamese map done. But... she needs a morph to match her efforts. I've spent much of this weekend creating this morph of a Modern Style Siamese.
First screen grab is our base House Cat, and others are Siamese morph.
