The original model was created by Anton Kiesel who sold the rights to DAZ 3D. The Kiesel Model is now known as the DAZ Songbird. <br> | The original model was created by Anton Kiesel who sold the rights to DAZ 3D. The Kiesel Model is now known as the DAZ Songbird. <br> | ||
In 2003, the model was revised (or ReMixed) by B.L. Render who corrected the anatomy and added many features such as folding wings and character morphs. Her partner, Ken Gilliland, using the new morphs, created the bird species and textured them. A year later, he took control of the ReMix series. <br> | In 2003, the model was revised (or ReMixed) by B.L.

The Model was remixed a third time in 2010 creating a much more realistic bird than the prior versions by Ken again. The model underwent a significant structual change with the hips move forward. In addition, several of detached crests created in 2006 were incorporated into the mesh, more transparency layers were added and many of the 2003 morphs were revised. Ken said that this will probably be the last time this model is updated as he will move to a higher resolution mesh. | The Model was remixed a third time in 2010 creating a much more realistic bird than the prior versions by Ken again.
