and suddenly both my Travis and my Nickie cat are looking back at me, right out of the monitor screen! I could cry! (good tears)... Laurie's eyes are exactly Nickie's color, and he gets "this close" to my face.... (Nickie doesn't have all the white Travis did, it's really
a combination of both boys... I'm still "picking at" other areas... but the face is done! :)

I know there are some seams...but with all those stripes, this is the best me and my old hands can do... I am happy with it over all... It's a dream to have my little "soul mate" continue his journey on this earth, even though he is gone... He's been a poser cat since 1999!!

I'm so happy with this (oh and FYI, my avi is a TEMP avi, until I dial-shape the ears/face to more like my fur kids) I AM going to do Nickie- as his map is the same but for NO white.... he has a darker creamy tummy and just white on his nose area... the hardest thing with him will be the darker coloring on the bottom of the back feet that is so typical of tabbies like this... I also want to create poses for his shape and some other poses for him... My Runtime will have a MATERIAL to assign his new coat, set the other node settings the way I like, but you MUST have the base cat and tabby to start, as my mat file will call to Laurie's maps!! I am even going to place my coat map in her folder, so all the other parts of the cat won't have a fit looking for them. (I assume that is ok with legal and Laurie? @CWRW )

To be very clear: there is NOTHING on my map but the fur...done right on the template. :)
