I've always had a way with critters (just speak softly and refrain from sudden moves)...we had a surprise visitor at this picnic lunch many years ago....she loved peanut butter sandwiches too 
I need to play with the settings on the whitetail deer...I wanted to get the slender neck as is typical, especially with the young, but I haven't seen how to get that appearance with tweaking so far. I'll have to wait a bit longer on the eye sight

Blender 2.80 beta just released a new version a couple of days ago. One difference that I noticed right away is user preferences has been moved from File to Edit. Under Edit, select Preferences, and at the top right you'll see Install....select this to see the file tree on your drive in order to find the theme location to apply to Blender. The entire Preferences menu has been changed so it's worth taking a look at this to enable tweaking of the program. Below are screen captures of the old Preferences menu in Blender 2.79b, and how it appears now in Blender 2.80 beta April 18 build.

I just noticed this at Rendo...Janet's Mil Horse animations
Yah with the changes here I moved my Mil figures animations to Renderosity.

Cat, dog, horse, donkey, chicken, cow, and pig....along with Loretta and Lorenzo, the Arab male, and monk, through the benefit of various sales over the years. The lo rez figures are a good option for folks who are stuck using very slow computers.
That's why some folks still like using Michael 2 and 3 (even P4) for military, space, or western scenes, since morph packs and high res textures really load up a scene. Unfortunately current trends in 3D follow fashion interests, without much consideration of the big picture. I got to know some of the hobbyists, and their interests when doing freebie pose sets....so I always knew when I created sets for M4 that certain ones would request M3, M2 and Apollo. It's a shame that there isn't a place where old, or lo rez figures are given their own "pasture", where they won't get shoved out of the picture altogether just because they are not hot sellers...sure, they won't ever be big sellers again, but they'd be available when the need arises, especially with the loss of RDNA, Poserworld, and CP. As far as I know, 3dpmr.com is the only place left...and I say that carefully, and in hopes that a thousand women don't show up there with their V4 string bikinis....haha. I have some great textures for M4 and M3, and I'm still using them to convert to new figures. I have to use older figures when doing biblical themes, since nobody is creating that type of content with Steve no longer being at Poserworld (thanks to Maja's efforts, I do at least have dynamic robes for P11 Paul and Pauline). Speaking of Poserworld, I just checked, and there's a page where old Poserworld members will be able to get re-connected to their accounts apparently....at https://3dfig.com....and the Poserworld site is evidently still being upgraded and prepared for current security requirements.

Sure I can move it.

Great Janet I was wondering the same thing, if you would use Rendo as a place to post for other figures. So this would be your Anniemation vendor page.
