to be clear the mouse and rodent polymorph are quite different, and the mouse is everything I wanted :) Small, tiny arms and legs and hands and fingers and big ears and eyes and EEEEEEEE.
totally worth every cent, and works with lamh 3dl or iray or dhair and i am out of words <3
And THANK YOU for the 3DL compatability. That is getting as rare as hen's teeth.
The rodent polymorph was supposed to be the basis for a lot of additional rodents (mouse, rat, rabbit, etc.). It was not intended to be the final shape of any of them. I guess that is no longer the plan now.
Are there any more rodents based on the rodent polymorph coming?

I can't say for sure, I started a rabbit/hare some time ago but it looked like there weren't many after it.
i got a lot of use out of the rodent poly morph, it had several shapes for it, and people could use the morphs to customize. I made a mouse for it myself, but this new mouse is far more what i had in mind. :)
Bought Alex. I really wish there was a Poser version too. I don't need the hair but rigging and morphs in Poser, please!
OMG a rabbit/hare!! Hope that will come into fruition.
I love the mouse.
Well, I don't recall many people being after a piglet, but it seems to have been popular. But it's gotta bring the cute!
Agreed. The big difference between the old Daz pigs and the new one, is the the new one is so adorable! If anyone makes a rabbit, please make it cute! When people go “squee!” when they see it, it will be sure to sell.
The piglet was a more of a toon than a real looking animal. Personally I would rather AM concentrated on animals that actually exist.
But as you said life is not being to fair to me either, not financially anyway with my hours being cut back to almost nothing. & I am sure I'm not alone in that boat. for now any money I earn now days may need to go to other things like utility or other bills . I may not always get what I want. But I am lucky enough to get what I need. So hopping for better days soon
best of luck Alessandro
i only had a couple minutes to try it out..... i have so much work to finish before i can play more!
So cute.
It knows there are no cats about, as it looks far too comfortable and relaxed.
Instant buy for me, my request would be a Red Panda.
It depends on people‘s disposable income and what one mouse is worth as a percentage of that disposable income. In my case, I don‘t need the mouse immediately, so usd 23.03 is too much. When it drops to 50–65%, it will be more reasonable and affordable for my financial circumstances. But even at usd 23, it‘s a creation worth it‘s price. These are two different things and should, therefore, be kept separate: necessity in relation to disposable income and the creative/artistic value of the item. Love the mouse!!!!!
I need the rabbit!! I was just wishing there was a good rabbit a couple days ago. (And a white-tailed deer/deer family, if I'm dreaming big.)
Meanwhile, I can't decide if I should buy the mouse, or two fur friends from the back catalog sale. It sucks having limited funds.
I had brought up the financial restrictions stuff 5-６months back and how vendors needed to consider this situation in this day and age. What was the reaction? Daz/vendors have, instead, been slowly ratching prices up, even on poses for christ’s sake.... with new stuff not going on sale for longer (than before) periods of time. This is going in the opposite direction of where things should go and my prediction was that such short-sighted action would hurt sales. Judging by the comments above about tight budgets, my prediction seems on point (though it didn’t require genius status to figure that out .... just the ability to see events for what they were and where things were heading).
Lucky i didn’t buy that product then. No guarantee when plans will suddenly be superceded by events.
Probably more than your beavers, moose and feral hogs =) ... so doing a rabbit seems like a smart thing to do. Actually, doing polls seems like a smart way to maximize one’s energy. They would probably be really good at pin pointing the next hit. I hear everybody screaming “rabbit” here. Hint hint.
I think he makes animals that interest HIM. There is nothing wrong with that. I prefer the more common animals, but I have a few of the exotics, too.
Well, you certainly have a right to your opinion, don’t you. But, you are setting up a srawman argument. He said that he didn’t think people were much interested in a rabbit, and I replied that a rabbit sounded like it would be more interesting to folks than a beaver or moose (i don’t remember anybody clamouring for those like they are for a rabbit). So, since he clearly is interested in what people need and want, your point — or what evidence you base it on — alludes me.
I have a different take on the matter.
I make pictures for myself, but I don’t try to sell them. It’s not my objective, but I think Alex is in the business of actually making money using his 3d skills, probaly because he enjoys that more than office work, or working at mac d’s to make a living. It might be a hobby, but it’s probably also his bread and butter. And that is why he does, in fact, appear to care what people like and want.
i think it would be more accurate to say that he loves animals, while probably having some favs, so he’s not overly biased about what he makes, or certainly not biased to the point of his financial detriment. If you like them all, thinking about financial advantages to boot is not at cross purposes with one’s passion.
The moose is incredible, and I love it. Don't be dissing on the moose. Or the beaver for that matter. Haven't rendered the wild boar yet, and I don't have the warthog yet. Which are, ftr, no more feral hogs than a wolf is a feral dog. Just saying.
I've had the honor of being friends with Alessandro for a few years now. In that time I've learned several things about him. He's an Italian living in Italy, (NEVER goes by "Alex", maybe "Ale" if anything) and has an amazing catalog of critters here at DAZ. He has also sold things in other shops, his frog model, for instance. He also fairly recently spent some time in London working on a motion picture putting his diverse talents to use on that and is also developing an application that generates amazing 3D tree models. He LOVES Nature and is willing to make a model that he knows probably won't break any records in sales, but he felt passionate enough about to make it/them anyway. Most everybody here in these threads works for a living and we all get by as best we can. Alessandro included. I applaud him for not JUST chasing the money. I think it is a pretty common consensus that nearly everything he does is outstanding and above par, even if not someone's particular cup of tea. As an artist, I know that sometimes what I SHOULD be making, is not what has stolen the attention of my passsion and energy. <shrug>
I chuckle a little seeing all these thread-based requests for this beast, or that creature, but what I take away from that is people see an artist with great talent and they hope, beyond all hope, that he just MIGHT listen to their pleas and give them yet one more AMAZING thing!
Lastly, I might add that Barbult is a very, very helpful person on these threads and I've never seen her treat anyone with a lack of respect, regardless of their behavior. She's often coming up with fascinating new information on various products and techniques and is always willing to share her knowledge with everyone. I am honored to count her as a Forum Friend. I, for one, advocate treating her with the level of respect that she has earned.
The woodland animals are all very welcome, to be certain (I have a long-standing need for a badger, the European variety by preference) but that is my need, not necessarily anyone else's.
Domestic animals, however, are the kind of thing that once they turn up many people who had not considered animals at all, will find a use for them. A new domestic cat has been being begged for for years (I'm satisfied with the Hiverwire cat, but, again, I am not everyone). A new rabbit would be *very* welcome. Particularly since rabbits can be used as either domestic or wild, if alternate textures are available.
(For the person who wanted white-tailed deer, Hivewire does have a white tail buck. It's an add-on to their mule deer buck. No doe or fawn yet. They have a bottleneck at the rigging point, and textures also seem to come through one artist who has a long to-do list.)
Since the HW animals are all morphs based on the Horse, which comes with a female morph, it's easy enough to dial out the male bits on the mule deer, or one of the other deer and delete the antlers. And I've not tried it, but you'd probably be able to mix in the foal morph with the deer of your choice to get a baby deer. And you could use the Fallow Deer texture for the baby deer since it has spots on the coat.
No, not so much. I tried it when I did a family of deer for a render, using the HW3D Buck to create a doe, (and the very old Silverkey Fawn for the baby.) I ended up creating my own morph for the underside because the Mare morph distorted the body so much. I created another morph to round out the head where it is shaped specifically for the antlers. (All this before Mesh Grabber was released, which would have made it much easier and faster!)
I love AM's animals. I'd love another deer, (and I've already got Tane.) I'd love a cute little bunny, and/or a jack rabbit. I'd love another housecat… As long as AM continues to create animals, I will continue to buy them. As I am able.
