SKYLAB CHAT

[skylab]

I just know you're hatching another Nursoda character to lay on me...haha.

 

[Linda B]

I am! Installing XD so I can get Hein some new clothes.

 

[Terre]

Looking forward to the results.

 

[skylab]

Haha....thought so I completed three Doc faces, plus the revised Bean face, so I'm getting them zipped for upload.

 

[skylab]

Some successful XD conversions for Hein...Bad Cowboy...M4 Basketball...XD Hoodie with M4 Street Jeans...Poserworld Trek Uniform...and RDNA Legends

 

[skylab]

Here's the XD page on my website, showing sample conversions for several different characters.

 

[skylab]

Here are the four face morphs for Doctor Pitterbill, including a revised Mr. Bean, zipped and attached to this forum post. Have fun with them If nothing else, they can be time-saving starter poses.

 

[skylab]

...and I think it's time for me to grab an afternoon senior power nap...so I will catch you all later

 

[Miss B]

Rest easy Sky.

 

[Terre]

Have a good nap.
I wonder how Charles and Deb are doing. It's been a long time since he poked in here.

 

[skylab]

Hey Terre I had an excellent nap...over five hours, that's a lot more than a nap, but obviously it was restful, and I must have needed it. Yeah, I wonder about Charles too...he may go in and out of seasons of being busy with Deb's health issues. I know from experience that it has a way of swallowing your time, concentration and incentive to do much else. Hope they are doing okay.

[skylab]

Wow...look at that detail in the face...you've done a Pitterbill Truman, complete with vintage news style rendering That's bordering on amazing... okay...so now we're crossing over into character portraits. Times like this, I miss my coffee...this would normally have taken a cup of coffee and some thought, back in the day....haha. Isn't Pitterbill a great character for this stuff...he has so many dials in the face, more so than Hein. That's fantastic Linda B!....and you're stretching me....haha.

 

[Linda B]

Well, that's not who he started out as but I thought hey... he looks like Truman

 

[skylab]

You know, I've done the same thing....and I've learned to just sit down and start messing with a face until something jumps out at me...that's often when the ideas come. I especially learned after this mess especially, to just let it happen on its own...haha.

HEIN BAD HAIR DAY

 

[skylab]

What emerged out of the above mess was Rockhein, and The Godfathein

 

[Linda B]

Good ones! Here is Heinward Asner. And that's all for today.

 

[skylab]

Oh he turned out good...I like Ed Asner

Okay...you're taking a break now....it will give me a chance to catch up. I'm considering something totally outrageous, so I'm not sure it can be done...and it will take some fiddling and experimenting with the dials, plus some texture work this evening...haha. I'll need a completely beardless Pitterbill face...and that's the only hint you're getting...so be prepared

You've done some good stuff today I'm enjoying the fun!

 

[Terre]

I enjoying seeing you two have fun this way again.

 

[skylab]

Hey Terre Yes, it's like we've entered a time warp, or Back to the Future...it's 2012 again It's way more fun to bounce ideas off one another The timing of this was much needed, as I'd about given up all hope of it ever being this much fun again.

Well, I've been gathering reference photos and pondering the next character, so I think I'll turn in for the night, and get an early start tomorrow.

Have a good evening everyone
