Oh how cute!!! Is the late December when they're coming or the name of the picture? ;-)

Those will be really nice additions to tuck into a scene to fill it in, and your lo-res creations are just fabulous to save some RAM on detailed pieces. Yay!

Winter rabbits? Now where did I put those snowshoe props! All kidding aside, I'm reminded of Durer's study of the hare in grasses. Carolly

Gerald, I love your new style of making pictures. Excellent, they have a very Ilstrated look, that could be made into a book. Just beautiful. I still love the spooking quite night woods one. Hint I would love that big enought to use as a background. Or tell us how you get this wonderful effect?
Love is Grandchildren.

Hi Turtle,
A while ago I had a free version of of Uleads PhotoImpact on a magazine cover disk. I've just got around to experimenting with it. I've always been interested in using Poser as an art tool.. particularly with my little meshes.
I only have Poser 4.. not 5.. not Pro Pack. I love Poser 4.. I've used it for a long time now, and in conjunction with Anim8or I can go from thought - to mesh - to render - pretty quickly.
But what's lacking tends to be atmosphere.. and emotion.. perhaps explains why much Poser stuff tends to be soft porn, weapons, and ancient peoples.. all this is great, but I want more now. I want wet days, broken hearts, the world as seen through tear filled eyes, and warm moonlit nights.
PhotoImpact has some basic particle systems that are easy and simple to use.. mist, rain, snow and smoke start to become possible. My latest images tend to feature these.. along with coloured pen effects to create the story book feeling, and, post work lighting effects to add on top off the Poser renders. All this helps to give the image that extra dimension ... the girl with the wet hair is really getting wet! The little boy asleep in the wood is really being watched over by a special and very rare compassionate being.
So that's my current 3D world interest.
Victoria can get by quite well without yet another set of leather underwear. But, I'm sure, she'd love to stroke a small virtual bunny.. or walk through a dew soaked meadow before dawn and watch the sunrise.
Bet this is more of an answer than you expected !
I'll see if I still have the pz3 for the spooky woods.. if so, I'll execute a larger render.
Thanks to all for their kind.. and funny.. words.
Regards, Gerald. .. still having fun making meshes, textures, renders, animations, and now post work !

Gerald, I too use PI and love the soft otherworldness it can bring to pictures. Your stuff is always getting better as you play more with your tools. I look forward to seein what you post. Diana
