For every hour I''ve spent working on Dork, I''ve probably spent 5 or 10 hours on Posette. But incremental improvements do accumulate over time, and Dork continues to progress every time I work on him. For a long time in the past, I gave him very different face structures, but at this point I think the nostalgia of his somewhat iconic face has grown on me significantly. Unless I''m making some specific character for some specific purpose or scene, for the most part I now leave my everyday studio Dork''s face recognizable in his traditional basic features. I still prefer him over later generation models such as Michael or Apollo because P4NM is easy to work with-- easy to texture, quick to pose, and fast to render.
Rendered in Poser 4, with my own textures on everything except the background wall and the cigar. Prop credits: standard P4 Polo Shirt, Hair Braid M by Zygote (from the Costume Shop P4 add-on), Backprop Wall by A::D:P (freebie), Cigar by Jim Farris (freebie), RJ_stash by RJ (freebie), MoistEyes by momodot (this last freebie prop helps Dork just as well as Posette!).
Postwork here was minimal on Dork himself. However, the P4 Polo Shirt is not a particularly good model for posing. The shirt shoulders blew out badly in this pose, so I had to do some repainting on those. |
