Wireframe Graphics Packages or artists
 
Any know of a package that can produce wireframe drawings of bodies (ideally the hands) or does anyone have one and they'd like to knock something up for me?

Ideally I want a pair of open hands (palms up) up to about the elbows! (As though trying to catch something like a ball! (Does this make sense!)

You are well named. ;)

The sort of software that does this would cost two arms and three legs and then I still wouldn't have the proficiency.Lets hope we have a professional and extremely kind hearted 3D modeller among our members.Do you want the wireframe as a wireframe or do you want it rendered?

Yes I've been told Poser is good and judging by some of the work I've seen it may well be worth the money.However I found the demo so hard to use and get to grips with and I suspect that Tricky is after a very quick fix.

Frankly I would visit one of the specialised forums dedicated to such software and beg for help. ;)

Poser is an absolute piece of p*ss to use, I don't profess to be any kind of 3d modeller, but it only took me 10 or so minutes to get to grips with copy on a friends machine.

Not too expensive.
You can pick up Poser 5.0 for around £300 on Amazon. (EDIT: ~£176.0 0 download or ~ £196 boxed, direct from Curious Labs)
Good range of 3d & rended export options.

Perhaps older versions of Poser might still do everything you need and might still be available in some bargain basements or on ebay.

1) You should have probably read my original post ;)
2) Poser 5 download is $199 from Curious Labs web site, which is £110

I just clicked on the BUY button and it took me to a page which gave the prices in Euros (E260.00 for download and E289.00 boxed). Couldn't find the super bargain price you described.

From the export options in Poser, looking a the file formats, it appears you can do wireframe (e.g. DXF).

I was just in WHSmiths looking at the 'puter mags and I'm sure I saw a coverdisk with free wireframe software on it. Go and have a mooch in Smiths and see if you can find it..... :)

Hmmm! That was what I thought.Here's hoping you find such a kind soul.I'm just not up to any such thing myself.I'm having enough problems getting to grips with Bryce 5 and I'm not proficient at doing the human figure in 3D at all yet.

IF you can't get a software drawn wireframe perhaps a hand drawn one would do?I might be able to help there.

Cheers - I'll check out smiths as I am sure that I saw a version of Poser on a disk a while back

Took a lot of work to do this, more difficult in poser than I imagined.
No it's not my work. It's that of a very good friend and it took her a good deal of time.
