[MEC4D]

Just WOW

Thanks Doug , very nice work you did there yourself , looks awesome !
I just go through your tread

 

[MEC4D]

As by Chris & Laurie special request, working on the defined HD anatomy for Harry , making also my own more sporty full body shape to use with my future jockey outfit character , you would be able to add the define anatomy to all other Horses shapes without using this sporty racing horse shape , by simply using the included Mat for desired effect.
For now just the early new shape preview as I am halfway to finish.

Thank you !
got the new shape of the face done today , and next well define the small details with final layer ..and polishing

Putting Harry base for comparison so you can see what work was done , and called the new sporty shape "Jet"
My first horse name that I ride was "Paw" in my native language it means Peacock . He was like Harry kind of horse breed, lovely and kind of character.
But then was the wild one Jet , he always scared the soul out of me when he stand up on his back legs while me still sitting on him when the training was done and we stand before the gate , like he wanted to show off who was the boss .. a lot of temperament and beautiful but wild and stubborn it was not a racing horse breed , but Arabian breed .. Jet for Harry will be race horse breed , as we need to populate the @Ken Gilliland horse racing tracks ! put some hats on the heads and render, ready... go! lol

Looking very good Cath. He's going to look like a whole different animal soon.

Thanks Miss B

I think the heads between breeds are most distinguish I think the Arabian horses head looks more like an disney horse head than West American horse like Harry , almost cartoonish when you compare , and same here with the racing horse shape , more defined muscles and slender bones , build to run .. Harry on a racing track not really a match ..
The details layer on Harry will not make him into racing horse , just define the body , veins etc.. make it more HD, but all proportions will be the same as it is a different breed .

That horse morph is superb!

That horse morph is superb!

Thank you Janet , I hope the new shape inspire you for making some racing horses motions in the future, that would be nice to have when everything is done including the jockey .

Jet is just gorgeous honey. WOW. What a huge difference!

Thank you Richard , new breed stands out , that's good to hear , and you will see how better Harry will looks with define details , Chris's base figure work is fantastic as always , making my work much easier if you have so good canvas , sculpting stuff in a clay or dynamesh is much easier than on a topology that you can't change .. it limits you , but still enough to make great changes .

When Dawn is rigged I'm going to do some animations of her and Dusk riding. Could do jockey animations also.

that would be great Janet ! yes we have to wait for the figures to have the proper rigging to do that so I can finish the jockey outfit for both figures and send to you for the animation work to be complete .

 

[RAMWolff]

Sorry Janet, I read too fast and it read "When Dawn is rigged I'm going to do some animations of her riding Dusk" LMAO. I'm such a dirty old man!

I can't even describe how excited I am for your horse morph!! Hivewire Harry is gorgeous, but I can just imagine how Jet will look with some veins and muscles...
Jet is already showing some of that Thoroughbred refinement.
I grew up with these horses, not seen to often in the US...and I've never been able to get the Hivewire horse to look like one, Jet could do it with just a little ear work!

Thanks , that is correct , I am doing the European breed , Thoroughbred horses are mix of 3 pure breeds including English mares and Arabian stallions as well .
Harry is typical "West American" breed however all horses came from Europe anyway since Native Horses of North America got exting 10.000 years ago.

The ears you showing in the picture are typical of the
Marwari Horse Ears , naturally curled ears of this breed , I never saw in person this breed but it is Marwari horse from India .
I could do some additional ear morphs for the extra variation ,
Jet body is slender, and the bone structure much lighter , I did not changed the height since I hate to model stuff on scaled shape figures, I prefer to scale it up for my needs before rendering . Harry have a lot of great morphs in the base so with extra morphs and shapes I am doing, it gonna be on another level again .
I am not a horses breed specialist as I don't even know them all , just the basic I came across , and what I don't know I research .

Kath did you do an icon that says rendered in IRAY? I searched but couldn't find it. Seem to remember it was you that created those. If so could I get a copy?
