    So many cute cats posted- thank you all for sharing. Is there any way to chonkify Zeus? He's adorable as is but need a much chonkier version for something I'm working on. Is there any way to do this or am I out of luck?

    You mean something like this?

    Chonk is an adorable way of saying he's on the hefty side

    Have you tried playing with the paramters?  If you take the legs to -500 negative and the head to -200 negative... he looks pretty chonky to me :)  lol  I also went to the bones and shortened the scale on his abdomen 1 and 2... I love playing with these.  Give it a try ;)

    Haha THANK YOU- that is the sweet spot between 'Oh Lawd' and "hide the extra treats' chonky I was looking for. I didn't realize the paramaters could go negative and look so good! I tried the other way and eyes started popping, I got scared, and left it alone :P If I wasn't 200 frames in I would edit Zeus like that and still might if doesn't turn out ok. Again thanks for the help on getting a cute chonker :)

    You can also try turning off limits and dialing the Sphynx (Asher and Basher) to negative values. That will add some heft to Zeus and give him nice chubby cheeks. There is also a Body Size morph with the Siberian that you can use. I made myself a Fat Belly morph with Blender, but you could easily make the same kind of alterations with Mesh Grabber.

    I keep forgetting how useful Mesh grabber is and almost always just use it for clothes/props and avoid it on characters for some reason. Thank you as well. Love these chonkers you all have come up with- seems especially fitting with such a fluffy head :)

    With some fiddling around, you can make some strange cats!

    Well, obviously, all cats are mice lovers.

    Okay, well, you got me there!

    My pleasure... and you taught me a new word..."chonker"... lol.  If you'd like my parameters... please message me.  I think I can give you my saved DUF file???  I'm sure he would look even better with fur ;)

    I just got Zeus myself, after wanting him since he came out ^_^ Such a lovely kitty, and he poses so well!  Here's a render I did with him:

    Curiosity

    This older cat has retired from hunting the birds, but that doesn't mean he doesn't still get curious about them from his window seat...    

    Rendered in Daz Studio Iray.

    Postwork in Pixelmator.

    Just saw that Vysur has released a Cat Mars over on Rendo. Looks like Zeus with the Siberian texture. Uses Strand-based fur. Cat Zeus's store page here just says dForce fur. Are we talking two different fur systems? 

    Mars looks like he has a longer coat.

    is a marble tabby like my late Lynx too, sadly I cannot justify buying both, Lynx I made my own textures from photos  for HW3D cat and MilCat so could do Zeus too if I were so inclined but Mars does look nice.

    Interesting.  I wonder if its the same model.

    dForce hair is strand-based hair using the dForce hair engine, and it can't be released outside of the Daz store. So the difference between Zeus and Mars is presumably that Mars' fur can't be simulated.

    I now have all the Zeus characters & can’t wait to play with him. I would love a Maine Coon version (my cat is part Maine Coon.) But it might crash my computer!

    which also suggests it is then editable yes 

    which is a plus to me at least

    I will need to wait until my dental issues are resolved before I can find out

    I want to create a cat like my Asher. I didn't realize one of the Sphynxes is named Asher!

    Wonderland sadly if you delete your thumbnail only you can see your image upload as it'sa cached

    Asher is likely very lovely but we cannot see him crying

    It had added the photo to my next comment so I deleted it. It should be working now.

    ...what a pretty kitty. One of the most affectionate breeds.

    Sort of reminds me of the Maine Coon we had when I was growing up, although he was big and had very noticeable ear tufts.
