Thank you all for taking the time to reply to my post and assist me.
Really.
Thank you.

TdaC, Thank you for the offer and yes, if you can teach me how to do some morphs with my Poser characters I would be most grateful.

Ahjah, I like the morph you created. When I looked at the image it was really cool. I'm not trying to get a TOS looking Klingon, I'm trying to get a TOS movie era Klingon, which is pretty much the same as the TNG Klingon. I'm currently using Poser 6 for my 'actors' and any information or help you could provide me with would also be appreciated.

Tormie, I think I may not have explained what I did when it came to my forehead prop. I'll try again, I loaded up a Poser character, exported it as an OBJ, imported it into MAX 8, deleted everything except for the head, turned the head into an editable mesh, grabbed the necessary vertexes and pulled them to make the forehead bumps. Once I had the forehead bumps, I deleted everything else in the mesh (except for the forehead area), textured it, exported it as an OBJ file. Then in Poser I loaded up the same character (with custom face) and imported the 'forehead prop' I created. The prop lined up nicely however there was no texture. 

I resolved the texture issue by taking the forehead OBJ file and importing it into Deep Exploration 4 where I was able to give it a texture that Poser would find.

The reason I'm doing this is because I'm creating a 15 minute short Star Trek film set in the Post TOS movie - pre TNG era. The story is very cool and very original. When it's finished there will be closing credits where I mention/thank the people at various different CG sites I've used as resources and this site is one of them.

I don't know how to attach an image in this forum so here's a link to two images of my Klingon. He's still in a rough sketch phase and not at all a final one. I hope these images give you an idea what it is I'm trying to do.

Thanks again.  :grin:
