I'd have to take it to Blender for that (plus I'd have to do the morphs in
Blender, which is a pain) and I don't know if I can use POV to render from
Blender.

Very, very, nice :)

Technically, you can morph it with POV as well, but possibly with the same
level of difficulty: Export 2 meshes from Wings, the only difference should
be how the vertices are moved to a smile and a serious face. Use a little
macro in POV that interpolates between the two meshes, and renders the
result for every frame. This won't be difficult, since all the vertices from
the 2 meshes have the same position in the data structure. There will be no
search involved, just interpolation.
(You probably knew this already?)

Hugo

Hi,
Not sure, but i think the Povanim script also exports RVKs to Povray.

Hadn't thought about that. Sounds complicated though and I only brought it
to wings to see the texture. The head is actually for a school project and
I'll render the finished version in Cinema 4D. Perhaps after this I'll play
some more with POV

I thought I saw somewhere about it but didn't think too much about it at the
time. Perhaps I'll have look

Try the version for Blender 2.23. It works better than that for 2.25.

This is a short animation, to show what I mean. I didn't model the face, I
just downloaded it. But I made 2 variants: A relaxed, and a smiling face.
This was done in Wings3D. The amount of vertices are the same, and the
triangles are connected in the same way in the two facial expressions. The
interpolation are therefore easily done in POV.
I probably can't expand this to a whole character, walking and talking.. I'm
bad at higher mathematics. But the principle is clear. Rune has lots more
experience and skill in character animation.
Btw, did I mention that Jide's modelling of a face is impressive? .. I think
it is.. good work.

Looks like linear interpolation, right?
Character animation really needs non-linear interpolation.
I'll do it in blender when I get the time and if the export script works ok.
