Ryan 1 (Poser 8 figure).

Disclaimer:  I have asked Anim8dtoon to get permission to post in a Poser-related forum.  And she is kind enough to allow me.  This is not a Poser render. I have not used Poser since version 8 (long ago)....so this one is a Blender render. 

I picked Ryan as the subject as he is probably the least used figure (he is also rather frightening when he was first released at least to me at that time).  Now I'm much older and mellowed out so I decided to challenge myself for this threat and work on him.  I have not been active in a long while so this a great nostalgia thread to participate in. 

Workflow:  Obtain Ryan 1 mesh from old unused Poser content folder. Object file format.  Removed eyelashes, teeth, eyeballs, basically just the skin and fingernails (I may have to get rid of that too as I screwed up and it separated). Worked on sculpting in Blender.   Toned down the Ryan texture so it looks blurred and softer.  Instead of hair textures, used hair particles for lashes, eyebrows, etc.  I have only gotten as far as the face.  But I made him wear stuff to hide the rest of the body so it's okay for now.  I hope to post more as I progress.
