Big headed V4 and M4

Hi
I have tried to increase the overall size of the V4 and M4 characters by using the various body morphs like for example bodybuilder and fitness etc, and increasing the scale in the parameters tab. It may well be my eyesight, or a trick of the imagination, but the heads do not seem to have increased proportionately to the rest of the character. Is this the case? If so is there a way that i fail to see, to make the head remain in proportion...

    Adding muscle bulk doesn't make the head bigger, so the morphs shouldn't affect it. Scaling up the whole figure will, and there should be headscale sliders too on both M4 and V4 that will allow relative adjustment.

    thanks for that Richard. Have not actually seen anything resembling headscale sliders but i will take another look.

    I often scale heads on characters up to 103% to get a more proportionate look. Just select the head part, go to "parameters" and then "general" and you'll see scale there. On newer figures the eyes will scale with the head - if you're using a figure where they don't, select the eyes and do the same steps to them and it should all work pretty well. If you go much over 103% the neck starts to look weird, which is why I stop there :)

    Thank you, i tried what you said but i dont see any way to increase the scale of the head, have included a screen shot of the general tab with the head selected for your information.

    Hm, that's odd...try clicking "all" at the top left, does that show anything different?

    If I remember right the morphs for head size, legs and arms length are under Morphforms

    Tried ALL as you suggested, which shows everything but no scale tool. You can scale the arms and legs and virtually every other body part, just cant find the head. Now, i kind of think i may be needing an optician, because maybe the head is actually in proportion to the upscaled, and therefore the head gets scaled along with everything else to stay in proportion. Thats fine if thats the case. but what if you want to overdo the scale? And of course i am only questioning my eyesight here...not at all sure if its right

    I'll try to look at this when I'm in front of my art computer tonite...maybe it's something specific to Gen 4 figures

    Ignore the "Hello Kitty" name at the top, it is V4 I just give my characters unique names when saving. You do have to have V4's Morph++ morphs injected.

    Well that did it, thank you so much. For some reason the head scale slider is in a slightly different place but it is there. It was simply a question of finding out where, again my thanks...
