Yeah knowing me I am sure that folder gets heavier and heavier with each thread started or extended. Like I say, I throw it ou there and pray something ferments in some other creative's mind enough to make it to Prime Time!Ken made a set of wings for Harry. But the griffin is for the big cat. ^.^
The problem with making a single mesh character for every conceivable monster out there, is that you have to redo a ton of work for each figure (expression morphs, shape morphs, etc.) and you wouldn't be able to mix and match them. They would be what they are and full stop, getting adequate support for all of them would be impossible. Ex. Cindy doesn't have nearly as much content available for her as any of the human figures, because she is a niche product. Using an established human figure as a base gives you SO much more versatility. Satyrs would be a project you could easily make as a morph on a single mesh on a modern figure, but centaurs can't be done as a single-mesh as an addon product. It would have to be an original figure, and that figure would never get the kind of support you would have if that centaur were an addon to a human figure.
I have a number of the images you've posted sitting in my to-do folder. ;-)

Of course I know you are 100% right in this (creating free standing figures unable to get support and this not being financially feasible to create) but I wind up doing a lot of thinking out loud in frustration. I just keep throwing my wish list out there hoping the idea sticks and wind up getting e-SPANKED each time. You are right about Cindy though in all honesty Ali has created numerous extra morphs of her for mem(as well as some of his other figures)--- and it seems EXCLUSIVELY (since I have not seen him add any of them to the original figure in the store which I just can't figure out!?) it is too bad there has been no other support for her. I have repeatedly begged him to create a really nice muscled out morphed male to counter her and though he mentioned years ago he was planning to it has never materialized. But like your stuff i promote the hell out of it when someone asks what figure it is.
I use it A LOT and have really filled her out in my renders with accessories and hair etc., to where she looks so much more useable than the stuff he uses to promote her. So much good work is lost for lack of good marketing. SAD!
THERE IS no marketing for any of his work except his hair at RENDEROSITY which everyone seems to love. he gets more promotion for his new free beta figure on the JAPANESE SITES THAN some of his fantasy figures. Go figure.
It is too bad stuff like this does not catch on especially for sots like me unable to create our own content who rely on others to get'er done for us.
OOh! I wants it, the Precious!Beautiful images @luannemarie I think I like the first one the best, but the BGs on the other two go very well with the dark brown/gold tones of the models. They are all three very nicely composed.
How about something of a more fantasy type horse! That could possibly be headed your way! This is not mine but created by FreyrStrongart and uses Harry as the base with geografted tail, fins, gills, and mane. I took him for a prelim spin and he's way cool!! Done with Fabiana's Theory of Zen lights.
Seahorse Harry
Products Used: Seahorse for the HiveWire Horse, Ron Deviney's wave and powder brushes, solar flare star brushes created in PS, cloud brushes by Obsidian Dawn, Fabiana's Theory of Zen Lights
Darlin...if EVER there was a moment I didn't agree I would not have gotten almost every Gen4 Anthro Moph set you've created. )I understand! No spanking intended. ;-) I just wanted to explain why for the most part you're going to see fantasy creatures created as addons, and why that should be regarded as a good thing!
COOL!! Love how the bottom one turned out !! And SOO glad you decided to chime in here!! =)been working a bit more on my seahorse and created an add on plus a mat that allows to use a proper horse texture for the horsepart. Needs geoshell to work.
