Research

"Guys, I think I found something here." Dick stated. He flicked through the pages of a very ancient looking book, which he had brought over from somewhere in the extensive library that Whitechurch Mansor housed. His nose still in the book, the young wolf walked over to the desk Jonathan sat at. He didn't even notice the expressions of his fellow researchers.
"And you lost your pants in the process, I see." Lily sighed with an air of exasperation. It was hard to keep up at least the illusion of professional work here with these guys.
"Yeah, I ripped it climbing up a shelf. Tossed it." Dick replied plainly. He didn't even look up from the book.
"You... climbed a shelf. We have ladders for that."
"There was none there."
"Of course..." Lily shook her head, trying not to stare at Dick's equipment.
Jonathan, however, had no such qualms. He glanced over the rims of his glasses (which he didn't need anyways, he just liked that they made him look clever) appraisingly. He wondered if all wolves were gifted as Velkan and Dick were. A subject for another day's research perhaps? Were there books on wolf anatomy here?
"Cut him some slack, Lil. It's all in the name of research."
"Whatever you intend to research down there, please wait until I went to get another coffee..."
Dick gazed up from the book, obviously completely oblivious to the ongoing conversation about his exposed manhood. "There's still coffee? I want some."

I'm very proud of the book that Dick is holding. It's been created by yours truly, modelled out in Maya (around 6000 polys) and UV-mapped/textured, then exported to use in Poser. My first self-made prop. I have been struggling with enjoying working with Maya so far but I think mixing business (my school) with pleasure (my renders) might help me greatly. I spent several hours on that book and really had fun. The cover texture is this one:



The library was built using stock by Elandria, namely:
