LOL well I wasn't saying I didn't think he was an artist...but having talked to him over the last 2 years...he doesn't think he is. He gets held to scrutiny like he is some professional sitting at his PC all day doing commissioned jobs or doing this for a living and that just isn't the case. He puts in an image characters and creations from those he cares about with his style flair and zest. Those that are always telling him he needs to grow or change his style...experiment etc...seem to be holding him to some sort of standards that he himself has no care to achieve...he just wants to do what he loves the way he wants to do it....the same I am sure can be said for the rest of us LOL :O) While some of us muddle through finding our own style he has found a style and look to his images that fits him and compliments his taste in other art forms such as music. I cant for the LIFE OF ME figure out why he is the only one that needs to change to suit others on this site. I have never had someone give me comments on my images like he gets...not once...and mine are unimaginative and remedial ....so I say you wanna heckle someone come heckle me as I actually do have no talent ROFL He has more talent and creativity in his pinky than I do period LOL...but has NEVER EVER once acted elitist or nasty to anyone like so many others DO on this site. He is giving of his time even when that means not getting much sleep etc...and always is there with a helpful suggestion or input or tips etc if someone ever wants them. Let be honest that's how MOST of us met him "hey sorry to bother you...how the heck do you paint that amazing hair in your images" LOL---that was my brilliant way of meeting him HAHAHA...and without hesitation he answered me back with links to tutorials ..enthusiasm...honesty....and an extension of friendship which has lasted since. Anyone wondering why he gets so many comments...well hmm....he talented and most people that come on this site end up seeing his art within the first week and admiring his talent just as so many do with Ravnheart etc...the difference is he ACTUALLY takes the time to get to know every one of those people...and to encourage them :O) So my thoughts....LEAVE MY DUDLEY ALONE HAHAHA :O) or Ill sick Iggy after ya snickers Anyway as I said ignoring it is the best thing we can do...and maybe like with any child once this person stops getting attention and quiets down from his tantrum he will just give it up and go take a nap :O) giggle HUGS!!!! ann :O)

NP 1010 he is a sweetheart and like a brother to me and I for one am a bit sick of all the drama and silliness that seems to always find him...wish people would just leave him be...if ya dont like him fine..be mature and dont look at his art then...or if you have something constructive and helpful to say then say it but this whole attitude of being on some sort of vendeta against him is silly...I always thought this website was for adults...but maybe Im wrong :O(

HUGGLES!!! and again I know Dudley thinks highly of so many here...and he loves the friends he has made as well as being able to share and grow with everyone...and no matter who WAH's about him... that wont change :O)

ann :O)

repost of what I said LOL...I couldnt edit it well this is a pathetic immature attempt for a small person to try and pull Dudley into an intellectual debate about art. The point here is that this person is unarmed in that debate so there's no point to bothering. Dudley has put up with this person now for months... creating accounts as fast as rendo can pull them and doing things like this over and over with the maturity of a 4 year old. Honestly its nothing to worry about...its just an immature person looking for attention. He thinks that by doing these things and stealing Dudley's art and making these images he's going to somehow expose Dudley has not being an artist...or embarrass him or maybe chase him off. Honestly I haven't figured out his point but he keeps doing this to Dudley as well as leaving nasty comments on his images etc. At this point I personally think its best to just ignore this person...if you see a new account with a post like this report it and move on by...the person wants the attention. We actually think its the same person that caused a fight with Calum way back when that used to have the username Edmundo something or other. Funny enough that person used to be in the Hot 20 etc and Dudley was always impressed by his work as was I and we all were nice to him. For some reason he has decided that messing with Dudley would be fun and so hence that's what this childish man has decided to do. I wouldn't worry about it...in the end it comes down to someone who feels that they are not getting enough attention and I guess for some reason they feel that is Dudley's fault. My thought is if he spent all the energy he wastes being a schmuck into his own artwork maybe he would be a better person and artist for it. At the end of the day Dudley is just an everyday person...that enjoys making images and redheads and using his friends products etc and uses it as a way to relax...he has NEVER claimed to be an artist in any form...doesn't ask for votes....doesn't worry about the Hot 20...he just does what he loves and shares his images with the people he cares about...so if he needs to be outed for that or "character assassinated" then there that's the low down and now you know LOL HUGS and thanks to everyone for thinking of him I know he appreciates the thoughts and friendship :O) ann :O) Message edited on: 02/15/2006 21:44

ROFL...the clothes in the first image...was done by prog with material zones in bryce to get a metallic look, the fur was also painted, the shoulder bits as stated were from DAZ...I think re-textured. The cloth part to cover her um er well you knows LOL was painted by me in Photoshop so we didn't get banned for life for showing her hooters LOL :O)

The outfit in the other promos is Dreamlace 2. Unfortunately, we had wanted to make that outfit for her but alas my modeling skills are,... well...developing ROFL...so who knows maybe eventually that will be an outfit in the MP by us but as of now nope just materials and painting....sorry :O(

HUGS!!!!!

HMM would love to have an opinion but at this point I on't I respect Sixus so can't imagine it being BS on the other hand I guess I don't fully understand all of what I am reading....I will say that having P5 and P6 if you said it was only a P6 thing I COULD believe that P6 did this because P6 does INJ channels and morphs from previously used figures if you don't shut P6 down and re-open BEFORE putting in a different figure and I do have proof of that on my own PC...and have had to redo some of our mil kids figures etc because P6 INJ V3 morphs...GRRRR...anyway if it ALSO is doing this in P5 as stated then maybe UH OH is in order as P5 isn't know for having that issue and I myself have NEVER had it happen since I have bought P5. So guess I will just hang back and wait to hear whether all these issues are FOR SURE P5, P6 or a P6 bug that is then being carried over and re-opened in P5. Gosh I think I need a Poser to english dictionary now LOL HUGS!! ann :O)
