This is my latest project, one in which I'm hoping to learn a WHOLE lot about backgrounds in Poser ::grins:: If anyone has any advice, I'm more than willing to listen, heh heh. Please keep in mind, I've done absolutely no postwork yet. Just wanted to put this out here, hoping for a little advice ::grins:: This is, of course Dcorts mermaid with Lisa B's texture, Kozaburo's (?) chignon and the absolutely gorgeous sea dragon by blbarret (from the renderocity store).

I would render this to ".tif", then open it in a Photoshop like application. The ".tif" has an alpha channel around the figures which can be used to cut and paste them onto an underwater background photo. If you want to create the ocean inside poser try the free models at this site: http://members.aol.com/plants3d/aqua1.html

You have a good start here. You may want to add more "movement" into the poses. Bend her tail more and perhaps angle the neck of the sea dragon and move one of the flippers as well so he doesn't appear so symetrical.Some dynamic lighting and a cool back ground and you got it goin!
