Texture/Fur

hadeletlakhalom

Is there a way to use a texture/material for something it isn't originally meant for.  For example, I can use the m4 creature morph to give him a dogs head - but the fur texture I have that applies to him is terrible.  I have a wonderful fur texture for another figure that looks so much better, or even the millenium dog fur's.. is there a way to adopt say the millenium dog fur to the m4 figure?

In principle, sure. In practive, it owuld be a lot of work - you'd probably need to redo the UVs (which tell DS how to wrap an iamge around a model) and/or us a distortion tool like the Liquify filter in Photoshop to rework the textures and/or use a projection painting application like 3D Coat to paint the textures onto the current UVs on the figure. I would, in the first intance, suggest having a look at RawArt's store - he has a lot of anthropoid characters, though I'm not sure if the Michael 4 generation sets are still available.
