tjohn.. yes it is a butterfly.:) TheBryster..I would never have listed Love as an uncontrollable force either until I got married and had kids. Now I know it is not something I have control over...it just is. The sky? I worked in the skylab very hard to get it to look this way...lol. Maybe I just don't have control over the skylab just yet? But it does kind of look watercolorish and doesn't quite fit in with the pic does it....... Catlin.. I am still playing with the textures, I am not very good at this particular part of Bryce yet. I will keep trying though, Thanks. Andidni, seredipity... I am not quite sure what happened with the mothers face just yet...could be the lighting maybe? But your right it does look like a mask of sorts. draculaz... I know the leaves are not done yet. I tried using a material from the plains and terrains on the tree and was pleased with how it colored the leaves and branches separately, but the leaves still look kind of like a bad fake plant..lol. My water also changed drastically in the compression to jpg. not sure how to fix that? it was just perfect in Bryce. Thanks for all your comments. I will keep plodding along.8^)
