Posts: 1 		How can I change the body type of a character? I would like to make an overweight character but I don’t see where I can change to body from the skinny normal character.

Welcome to the forums (or 'fora' I suppose)

There's not much scope to alter the body shape of the character but you can create a Fat Man character from the Create Character box. If you did this then you could also upload a specially painted skin texture with folds and creases on it. This may complete the illusion of a portly gent.

Custom skin painting is probably not a beginner's thing. However, if you've a fair degree of computer-painting experience then you should have a look at this:

Good luck

Have we added labels to the templates yet? - one the frustrating things is working out what goes where. The robot for Where's wally was quite tricky.
