Moose and Squirrel

I thought this was worth putting together tonight. These are all of the non-horsey breeds of animals that are still morphs from our Harry.

There is a bunch so far. And I'm certain we can achieve many more from our Horse base.

These all need maps and rig adjustments still. Several texture maps are well underway or almost complete.

Hey Chris have you thought about making a Cape Buffalo? I Have only seen a handful of them modeled and I am more than confident that if HW made one it would be the Bomb!!!!!

If I can morph Harry into the Spanish Bull and Cow, I'm confident it would make a good Cape Buffalo. A Bison even for that matter.

Lot's of gazelle can be spawned too.

Yes indeed. A Cape Buffalo as well as a Water Buffalo would be awesome.

Water Buffalo (Correction, this also is a Cape Buffalo. Thanks Harimau)

Even though they are distinctly different, would it be possible to create a Base Buffalo and then morphs for the African Buffalo (Cape, Forest, and Sudanese) and the Water Buffalo?

I just saw a number of photos of the Cape Buffalo when searching for Serengeti HDRis the other day.

Both of your pictures are of the Cape Buffalo.

This is a Water Buffalo:

And this is a Gaur, the biggest of them all:

Sorry about that.

Just goes to show you should follow links. While the bottom picture I posted stated it was a water buffalo in the google results, when I followed the link to Pinterest page, and then to the actual photo, there was no label, but the filename was simply buffalo. Another picture identified as a water buffalo, which looked pretty much like the photo I posted, was on a site that sells photos, where it was identified as a water buffalo by the photographer. /grumble.

Thanks :oops:
