    Yeah... it was just for fun lol I couldnt pass up doing the he man image. And thanks! Im glad you like them and I hope you have fun with the filter. I love that filter, actually... I didnt think initially Id use it very much, but it has proved very useful.

    And I hope to see some renders from you guys over the weekend!

    This is a great pack, and I'm so happy with it! No matter if you use the poses you provided, or a default pose that comes with the cat, the armor fits like a glove with no poke.

    Just a couple quick renders while I was having fun with this. Battle Cat with a default cat pose (Dashing) which I think is so cute, and another one using your poses and adding Dark Elves and the Midnight Huntress outfit for G2F. The textures for both Battle Cat and Midnight Huntress work well together.

    Good luck with this, cuz it's amazing! :cheese:

    Used the Battle Cat with the LAMH Black Panther. Only minor postwork on poke throughs.
    Well, I found poke throughs, because I took a very close look! :-)

    Really like this armor, works very well with the LAMH! :)

    Oh that looks fantastic! Lovely job on your image! And who knew, the fur worked so well. It looked pretty long when I'd tried it out, but I don't think I actually rendered it. I also need to grab the full player at some point (Im only using the free one) Im sure the length can be tweaked with the full version.

    I will have to try another render with the fur and armor at some point. The fur is a lot of fun and really adds a lot to the cat. When the cat released, I scooped up all the skins and the furs lol Ive always been a huge fan of the big cat. Its one of my fave figures.

    Thot I would mention ... since someone asked me elsewhere. The glowing eyes in my promos are copied from Dark Elves. I just copied them over to the cat, mostly coz I wanted it to work in tandem with the elves... but also coz it made the cat look a little more wicked.

    I must say Battle cat is stupendous, as are your beautiful promo pics. thanks for the referral for that filter, I snapped it up.

    I admit, I am curious how you managed to make the cat's eyes glow. Did you apply the filter for the elves to the eyes in some way?

    Overall, this is a great product. I know I'll have tons of fun with! =-)

    Thanks hon! :)

    And actually, no... I just copied my eye settings from Dark Elves' glowing eyes to the cat's. I think I additionally may have dabbed a spot over each eye in PS with the same color, and set the layer mode to screen... just to make it glow outwardly a little. But only for this image that I can recall -- http://www.daz3d.com/forums/index.php?&ACT=50&fid=4&aid=151024_JKc4r3Y0tqzU4yiIiEqO&board_id=1

    OMG, thanks so much for the tip on Topaz filters. I got the 30 day trial of the suite and I'm definitely going to be getting Clean, Adjust and Simplify. There are a few others that would be nice, but I don't think I would use them enough to justify the price.
    Here is a piccy for you. The Battle Cat armor does go excellent with the Dark Elves and Midnight Huntress. I was also very pleased with how flawlessly the G2F poses worked on the base Genesis. Great set Iggy!

    I think this is the first non-promo render I have done in years, so I had some fun with it.

    Man, you guys are really doing some killer stuff with this set. These images are gorgeous!

    Serene... you actually have to apply the SSS shader by AOA to the eyes first, then paste the settings. I actually also edited the eye map to omit the pupils too (so they were proverbially all white) Totally my bad... I completely forgot to mention that in my post :(

    Ive had a fair amount of requests for the glowing eyes. When I get a chance, I may go ahead and do a small set of them for you guys... and just do it as a freebie

    lol ty... but really, they didnt take long at all. I already had one set of mats practically done... I just had to switch out the textures with some that were actually mine. I got messing with the textures, so its got the two types (just coz I liked the others lol)

    yes, but as you know I am incredibly lazy and get all excited when other people do the stuff i love :D :D

    out of curiousity, will they only work on the big cat? or can we fluggle them for human figures?

    edit....er not that it's necessary cos i just remembered your dark elves character has the glowing eyes :headdesk:
