The fur on this and on the renders you linked looks wonderfully natural and flowing. But I hear Garibaldi is unsupported now, it that true? I'm trying to figure out which program to invest my time in...

Imagine THIS fur on the Hivewire Lion!!!

Well.... LOL speaking of the HW Lion- here is my WIP on him- this is using the Poser Hair Room- am going to attempt the same thing in LAMH (I do say attempt... we'll see!) I still need to do the tail and elbow tufts and belly fur and the diffuse map still needs lots of work and tweaks. This is Firefly- not sure if I can make this work in Superfly yet. (also this is using the base Big Cat, not the lion morph- I just did quickly what I could to make base Big Cat look more lion-ish:)

I can picture those Ghost and the Darkness images now with Taka in the place of Val Kilmer ........ Way COOL on the hair room!!
BTW those actual man eating lions are stuffed and in the Chicago Museum. If you have not seen them ......... they say the eyes tend to follow you when you move around the room.

I can deal with eyes NA, as long as the rest of them stay put! :eek:
