Description
Inspired by the work of Humorix, I returned to one of my models that I made a while back with metaballs to attempt some improvements. I ended up trashing the original body and tweaking the heck out of everything else. I realize no one is going to be fooled into thinking this is a real elephant, LOL, but everything here is native Bryce 5, no postwork except the signature. Even the terrain ears were handpainted in the Terrain Editor. I also realize that there are repeating lines in the ground texture, but I don't care, this was just for fun.
Thanks for looking,
John

He's soooo cute! but needs some skin cream, I feel the the texture is too regular, just MHO...:)
This is some excellent modeling! I am now going have to start fooling around with the metaball feature!
Good work on the metaballs. Maybe flatten the feet out a tad with some negatives?
Very iteresting modeling, John, I bet it was not easy, never fooled with meatballs before, I just might try something soon, lol ! :)
A brilliant model, I've just tried metaball modelling myself and it's not a precise science so to make something this complex must have been hard.
He is awesome. Excellent metaball modeling...
Good example of what can be done...not that I've tried yet! lol
Beautifully done!!
