Vasquez - I thought about a light dome. I think Im going to stick with just a few soft lights to diffuse the shadows on the girl. Might try turning off shadows globally to lighten the inside of the barn. Light domes just scare me for some reason.

Drac - (assuming a moon lit scene) You cant tell me that youve never been sleeping naked when you heard a noise in the barn, so you grab youre gun belt and your hat As for the textures, dont tell anyone but I didnt make them. Technically. Theyre all picture textures with adjusted mat settings. Although I did find the settings and really like the look it gives a figure.

Vasquez again - At that resolution, I think a light dome is overkill, adjusting the sky settings and a couple of well placed fill lights usually works. Besides, the picture textures push this file over 200Mb, I really dont want to slow it down anymore.

rj001 - But the whole point of a gun is to avoid having to get close enough to get splattered. I do think Ill add some around the top window.

Incarnadine - They got spurs on them.

Preston - So close. You tied with TheBryster.

TheBryster - Six-Guns works too, but wouldnt it just get the S, possibly S-G?

INTERMISSION<<<<<<<<<<

Vile - Yes, its a clich Yes, its unoriginal. Yeah, Im doing the same thing a hundred other people have done. The same bottles in front of a mirror/window, the same pretty sunset, the same mountain, same old radiostic balls. Because I migrated here from the poser forum, and because Im a smart ass by nature, whenever I see a new environment, one of my first thoughts is Nekkid Vicky In A And because of the comments that appear in this forum from time to time about those people who Just take a poser figure and render a quick Nuddie pic in Bryce, I thought Id give it a try. Hell the Creepers and UFO were an afterthought, it was going to be NVIARB

Its a sarcastic, smart-ass, just killing time pic. The idea is to be cheesy. Im not doing this to please the crowd, Im having fun. I do appreciate the comments, feedback, and interaction from this forum. Ive learned a lot from you guys, and seeing one of your names on a comment in my gallery, just blows my mind. I couldve sworn youd commented on one, but now I cant find it.

Most of my pictures have featured a just short of naked girl. I originally had panties on this one. Couldnt get it to look right when I was adjusting the textures, finally decided it was the contrast between the girly undies and the hefty gunbelt, so I lost the undies. Theres some line in my head, where nudity becomes tasteless in most cases. After I put the pubic hair back, and get the lighting fixed, I dont think itll be so blatant. This is not a new direction Im taking my work in, just killing an idea so I can move on.

Dont know what happened there. Sorry Vile, dont take it personal. Oddly enough, youre right and I agree with you (not your last line of course), and thats partly why Im doing this pic. Damn. Im becoming one of those touchy artists.Message edited on: 08/05/2004 00:59
