Ok...I shamelessly stole this idea from Chimera46. I'm sorry bro, but it was just too good to not do.
Whew! 2007 brought 31 images, fewer than in 2006, but several of them are my personal favorites (which I'll highlight in a moment). I can't say that I've necessarily got better images than last year, but I don't have any this year that I go back and look at and think "ugh, how could I post that piece of crap" like I do for some of last year's entries. We'll see how I feel about them as the end of 2008 rolls around. ;)
This year we have:
- 8 images of Daru
- 4 images of Human Daru
- 5 images of Oola
- 3 images of Rena
- 4 images of Ciel
- 8 images of Lana
- 5 images of newcomer Kaiya
- 1 image of Max
- 3 other miscellaneous images
- 5 images w/ custom Vue backgrounds
Some of my personal favorites for the year:
"Still Hangin' Around" - This image and its counterpart
"Just Hangin' Around" are my favorite images of Daru's human incarnation. I feel that I got a great "casual" feel to her pose and the image overall. Plus, it practically looks like she's standing outside my actual apartment building!
"Kaiya's Moonlight Dip" - It took me an incredible amount of time to get just the right sheer material for the cloth, and this water was absolutely murder on my system. Plus, is that not perhaps the most seductive glance ever?
"Trendy Twi'lek Girls" - All of my Twi'lek girls together in sexy new outfits. I want to get this printed to go on my wall next to
"Women of Color Ultimate" that I already have up there.
"Daru's Nabooian Sunset" - This is currently my favorite image of Daru. It's been my secondary monitor desktop ever since I created it, and I'm still not sick of it. I could just gaze at it for hours.
"Amazing Oola" - Recreating the original photo shot of Femi Taylor was an awesomely fun experience. Oola received texture upgrades and a new custom metal material for her collar with the help of Chimera46.
"Seaside Beauty" - This widescreen image of Kaiya was created expressly for the purpose of being my new laptop's wallpaper. Another image I could stare at for hours.
"RadiantCG Visits the Land of the Rising Sun!" - This image marks the achievement of my lifelong dream to visit Japan. I created this to be my laptop wallpaper during my travels. Doesn't Daru look scrumptious in a kimono?
Well, that's all I have space for! Thank you for looking and for your comments all year long! Let's hope that 2008 is even better!
Thanks to those of you who got me onto the Art Charts this week!

It has been said that "Art is either plagiarism or revolution". That statement implies though that one or the other, it's still art. Copyright is over-rated anyways, except when people rip off you :P In any case, though I'm very drunk right now (it's 3:20 where I am), I must say great best choices for the year, they're easily my favourites from your gallery this year as well. Also, I must learn how to make those HTML images like you did here. I tried to this afternoon, but didn't have time. Looks like you've got a little revolution in you after all :) HAPPY NEW YEAR!! Oh man, so drunk...
