Greetings, fellow human makers.
Today, after a long hiatus, I have decided to share more of my work with MakeHuman.
As those who follow my work are aware, I say to those just coming here that my specialty is making big women. This is one of the most challenging aspects of sculpting digital human models which appear real, not cartoonish. I strive to give the female form the respect it deserves and go for a true image of the round woman as she would appear in real life. This means no items that are exaggerated or purposefully misrepresented.
To that end, there will be pictures of the lovely gals I am working on. A nudity advisory is prudent here, although my art is tasteful and erotic, not garish porn. It will, however, show just how beautiful curvy women can be.
A bit of background about this work is in order before I begin.
I use a custom workstation of more than adequate power to host Linux Mint running MakeHuman. I have created over 300 saved targets, each one a full body morph of a randomized base mesh which originated as a gender-less and race-less pink blob. It is the start point for the program, the default base.
I randomize the base to get a rough form. Then, using a collection of hundreds of custom targets downloaded from the community, I set about tweaking the sliders. I use the default tools as a rough gender, age and race assignment and then go for the custom targets to get at the final result.

More about this wonderful woman from the Red Planet...
Phoebe loves plants. She knows the Latin names and life cycles of just about any green thing you have ever seen on Earth. She spends her spare time studying them. She also has a career as a caretaker of the greenhouses hosting them out on that far flung and hostile world.
When Phoebe dreams, she imagines what it would be like to sit on a rock, surrounded by cool water and greenery deep in the wilderness of Earth, a place she longs to go, having never been outside in her entire life of four decades plus.
Phoebe is gentle and kind, a true huggy bear. She sees a right to life in even the smallest creatures. In that regard, she is a genuine ranger, a steward of all that gives happiness, joy, and long life. She is a bundle of love, totally selfless and profoundly peaceful.
And so, I give you a frame from the Mind of this gifted gal, a moment in her dreams...
