I'm a newbe, so please be gentle. Image was rendered in P4, without any post (other than the overlayed text in PSP). Of course, it would not be possible without all of the great free stuff the following poser artists have produced: background created with TerraGen kozaburo - texture Dark Soul Images: Internet Media inc. - Teddy texture Bill & Ben Delivery Men 1999 - The Xmas tree prop Allerleirauh - the fantastic hair

A very nice composition. The pose is excellent, and the background superb (I've gotta start using Terragen again). Paul

In using TerraGen, I have learned a few tricks. One that took me for a loop was the ground shadows. The solution is actualy quite simple. Render the image without any figures or props and shadows turned off, but the ground turned on. export this image and use the ground to create a mask which you use to select from the TerraGen source background. Set the ground texture to the newly created TerraGen source, and make sure that all of the lights are white. Then slowly play with the ambient field on the ground texture until it matches (or in my case closely matches) the background. Then add the figures/props and adjust the primary light source to match where the sun should be in the TerraGen background.

Oh, and the pose...(I almost forgot another credit)... very slightly modifed Cute&Sexy-stepping by DreamSiren. (I went thru the materials, but forgot the source pose).

Great job! Very impressive for a Poser only render. How would I find the source for the tree prop? Not familiar with Bill&Ben. -Nance
