Just my rendition of the Headless Horseman....hope you like, and critisism welcomed. I really wanted a light behind him but it didn't show off his siluate correctly...Sharen

Oh, this was longtime we have not seen an image from you. Very nice, frightening and appropriate:-) When exactly is halloween? :-)Guitta

Also very funny : maybe too dark ? ;=) Yves

It is October 31st here in USA...some people celebrate early or on different days to avoid problems though. Yes, it has been awhile, hopefully this weekend I can do one I have wanted to do for a while. Sharen PS: not to dark on my computer though, I will have to test some others to see

Nice one Sharon, good to see you back and working hard!

I have had little time to create, especially between Vue and Poser 5 learning and creating models, Mike has me on a strick schedule.....I actually whined last week about it....sorry to say, I was a cry baby and said I need to create something, I have to explore or I will explode.....LOL....so I started this picture on Sunday and wanted to do more, but was so anxious about it, I still would like suggestions on how to get a proper siloette (why can't I spell that), so if anyone has suggestions, I wanted the light coming down the bridge and hitting his back, so detail in front would be gone, except for the lighting in the pumpkin. When I tried it, the light in the tunnel was to bright, then I used a spot light, but that was awful, then I tried a volumetric light, that was better but still not what I wanted. Sharen

Oh yes, I boolened a ton of things, to get the creek and the road, it was all so much fun....:-)

You want the headless man to be a silhoette? Why don't you just make him completely flat black? Ummmm......just a suggestion

ohh hehe that's a great render indeed.

Well, I guess what I mean, is sort of have a erie glow around him with the ability to show 3d perspective...Sharen

Like walking into a room and seeing there is someone there but they have this extremly long shadow. Sharen PS; I am not explaining this right

I saw a play last year based on this... Nice pic.. :)

Cool pic, Sharen ! One only little thing : it looks to me that a 'normal' rider could not ride under your covered bridge without crashing is head on the roof (I'm not sure it's correct english, but I hope you'll understand). Maybe it is the perspective that makes me wrong... For your problem, did you try to raise beyond 100 % the shadow setting of your volumetric light ? Argentium Thri'ile

Well, I measured the guy and he would fit under the bridge....(or loose his head, which he already has in his hand....LOL), but no I did not try the shadow, but maybe it would work...thanks...Sharen
