And now back to the figure studies. };]I wanted to have one of the lions or wolves or something standing next to her almost lost in the shadows, but all of them looked so bad once you got them close up, that I gave up on the idea, and concentrated on her alone.I am also thinking about redoing her skin texture to add some "mystical symbol" type tatoos etc...what do you think?[1024x768](http://personal.riverusers.com/~cyborspasm/1024x768/forest%20witch.jpg)

that is wonderful! The outfit is nice enough, but the Setting WOWED me... 1. What did you model the Outfit in? 2. Is the hair Morphed or just scaled? 3. How did you make the set? 4. What Rendering Engine?

The "clothing" was made with a little freeware modeling program called sPatch the url is http://www.cableone.net/alyson/spatch.html the hair was from the forum, sorry, but do not remember who made it, then tweaked in Photoshop. the whole picture was rendered in Bryce4. I turned off the sun, and added a single spot light as the only light source. Thanks for the comments!

the Clothing is very cool... I thought that would be a bear to make clothing in SPatch since (last time I checked) you couldn't import Mesh Forms into it... How did you manage that one? (PS, did you see the joke about Installing Windows just so you can use sPatch?)

Thanks for the comments! Grey..you are right, you cannot import into sPatch, and it is a bear! };] if you view the figure from any other angle, it looks pretty bad, but that is where lighting, and camera positions come in. };]It is all just trial and error but since sPatch is free, I can't complain.};]

Cool Images! Nice work I loved the use of the lion in the last one. and the loin clothes roc. By the way what is Spatch?

I'm going to try and make something like that... It's too cool to pass up... wish I had Bryce to render with ;-(

Magnificent, Cyb! Leave it like this, don't bother with the tattoos. She's lovely with her pale, smooth complexion. The pose and setting remind me a little of Frank Frazetta. FishNose

Funny you should mention Frazetta, that is one of the books sitting in front of me right now for inspiration! as well as Boris. };]
