This was my entry into the DAZ calendar contest, using a bunch of the dinosaurs that I picked up. Originally, I was going to emulate a famous poster as faithfully as possible, but then decided to take a tangent with it. I'm curious whether anybody will recognize the original inspiration for the image.

Just a wild guess, but 1 Million BC starring Raquel Welch?

Ah, and boy I'm dating my age...about 14 at the time, 1 million years BC with Racquel Welch? groan...-jay

Nope. Evil Dead :-) What do I win?

Hail to the King, Baby :p

dbowers22 is right. 1 million bc. the year i was born

"One Million Years B.C." it is! Like most of the Poser works I do, this one evolved from simply wanting to do something with all the dinosaurs I'd been getting. When I tried to think of something that would lend itself to using many of them, the poster for "One Million Years B.C." came to mind. I expected it would take longer for somebody to figure it out because the movie came out in 1966. I didn't see "One Million Years B.C." when it first came out, but eventually saw it on TV as a teenager. I think that I must have first seen the poster in a book on fantasy or science fiction movies. As a teenager, it left an indelible impression on me. It surprises me, decades later, that I still associate dinosaurs with Raquel Welch. It's odd that the movie was sold on the pinup value of Raquel in a fur bikini because stop-motion animator master Ray Harryhausen did the dinosaur effects. It was the best dinosaur movie since King Kong. Featuring Raquel Welch wasn't a mistake because it was a very memorable image. It would be hard for somebody to do an homage to another movie poster that would be as quickly recognizable. I looked the movie up at imdb.com and found that it was Raquel's sixth film, released after "Fantasy Voyage", with the latter movie being her most noticeable role up to that time. After the promotion for "One Million Years B.C.", there was no way that Raquel would ever go unnoticed again and her subsequent roles reflected her new notoriety. Initially, I tried to get the figure to look more like Raquel, but don't have the skills yet to succeed in that kind of endeavor. Victoria 2's head had to be upsized by 111% to match Raquel's proportions (which would mean the actress is shorter than I expected). The more voluptuous figure was a mix of muscular and pear shaped body morphs and some playing with the various breast dials. Once I couldn't get the face the way I wanted it, I started shifting from trying to make a duplicate of the original poster to something that's almost close to a parody. I also wasn't too sure whether a 3D emulation of a famous poster would run afoul of copyright law. It's cool that the image is still recognizable because I put a lot of work in getting the pose just right and only modified it slightly to reflect a shift in design. Then, it was hours and hours of different ideas and concepts, shifting from a metallic spacesuit look with different cutouts to going back to a fur bikini to adding and removing different props and weapons before hitting that moment of satisfaction.

One excellent way to get around copyright law is to render in Bryce, since copyrights only last 90 years ;p
