Good grief, hardly ever see any images in this forum. So here's a bunch of mine.

(Of course, if you frequent the "other" forum you've probably seen them before.)

We had a little very funny challenge last year (for the glory) but where is Mark ? I love your style DE3AN, very clean and efficient !

Thanks DUDU. Sometimes less is more.

Sometimes I'm just to lazy to add more detail. 😄

Yea, I should kick off something for grins and smiles, giggles and laughs.

Remember. This was your idea!

Haven't been here in a while. Hope you don't mind my posting. I missed the deadline for the image contest Mark set up.

A while ago I did a personal project in Carrara to teach myself how to use Carrara's shader system better. The project was called 'Odd Girls 2'. I used Carrara's shader system as well as several of DCG's plugins to create original textures for my figures. Sometimes I would take commercial texture sets and send them through Carrara to see what I could make out of them. Most of these haven't been seen anywhere before (as far as I can remember). I don't get much chance to render for fun these days, so this is just me looking back fondly. :)

So with Carrara, DCG's plugins and some judicious postwork I created 'Odd Girls'. Here's my favorite:

Fantastic de3an, I love them all. My favourite is the Light and Shadows one with Kimberley and Jason. Great idea!

Thanks versluis. Light and Shadows was the theme of a recent Carrara contest over on the DAZ Carrara forum. There were too many extra requirements for this image to qualify as an entry, but I liked the theme and created the image for my own amusement.

booksbydavid, your images are more than welcome. They really pop!

de3an, thanks. I've always said the the DCG plugins make Carrara a more powerful piece of software. Some of those plugins can do some weird and wonderful things to shaders. :)
