Well after too long a wait, here they are!
The first in a planned FULL line of Lost Creek REAL Frogs.
----------------
Having received more requests to do frogs then even a single specific species of bird, we are finally offering "REAL" Frogs.
---------------
CHECK OUT OUR BRAND NEW YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE FOR VIDEO DEMOS OF LOST CREEK PRODUCTS! OUR FIRST VIDEO DEMO OF THE "REAL" FROGS IS UP NOW! - Just click the link near the bottom of the page- "Watch Video" so you can get up close and personal with the "REAL" Frogs for SL.
--------------------
Why "REAL"? - We think they are the most realistic frogs you've seen yet on SL. Including both a sitting AND a swimming model in fully animated mesh, your swimming frogs will paddle around your pond kicking legs and arms, occasionally stopping to rest and singing along with the siting model. You will even hear the subtle sounds of the water they displace at the surface when swimming! All for only ONE PRIM PER FROG.
Simply set the range you wish your swimming frog to swim in and press start and they will do the rest. Swimming randomly and occasionally stopping to croak or diving under the surface. Yes the DO work at ANY altitude so feel free to fil up your pond in the sky with as many frogs as you would like.
Uses NON-VEHICULAR based movement so the end result is VERY LOW LAG.

I have included SPECIES SPECIFIC sounds with our frogs NOT the generic "ribbits" that are really only made by one species (not this one). Personally I think the sound it MUCH more engaging and interesting, and I think you will to. You pond will come ALIVE with sound and movement. Included in each frog is 29 clips of actual Leopard Frogs at various times and seasons. I was forced to call in many favors from naturalist friends for any recordings I could use. Ironically most of the sounds I was able to edit were created from in between owl calls a biologist friend was recording for study. As we are not blessed with many (or any in most parts) frogs here in Alaska.

Even the sitting frog, which may be placed upon the included lily pad or on anything you choose, is fully animated, they will look around, stretch, and even breath or bob their heads.
All movements are fully randomized as is the calling.

This is the Plains Leopard Frog, but could also be a brown variant of the Northern Leopard (the jury is out on this one). There are so many local color variations I have attempted to provide you with a good basic representation of the species in each package.

This is more than a simple repaint of the Northern, nothing about any of these models in development has been simple :) If you zoom in close you'll see that every last speck and spot has been hand painted to try and capture the real look for SL.

As all of the Leopard Frogs are BOTH diurnal and nocturnal, you can easily override the default function which has them going to sleep at night and select the menu function which allows them to call all night long and ignore the day cycle. Or simply purchase our Add-On Leopard Frog Ambient Pondscape sound kit and you will hear leopards even when you cant see them.
ADDITIONAL: All of the Lost Creek REAL Frogs have within them the ability to know whether or not it is dawn, day, dusk, or night and as in RL the frequency of calling will increase at dawn and again at dusk.

As stated in the included docs, this was one of the most challenging models I have ever attempted to build and paint and I do hope that you good folks enjoy the end result that has been long overdue.
And I thank those of you that made the requests for frogs for your patience I do hope it was worth the wait.
