Poor Zula. Every time she turns around there's that weird, scaly, smelly... THING the minstrel brought home one stormy night and named Sapphire. It scares her to death, waking her up with rude sniffing, snuffling and... ugh! LICKING! And then, of all the audacity... it wants to PLAY with her?? Not in any of her nine lives! ***************************** Playing around a bit more with Daz|Studio with post work in both Paint Shop Pro X and Adobe Photoshop Elements to get that more artsy watercolor type effect. This is the FIRST I've done where I actually didn't paint in the shadows. They were done with the lighting in DAZ|Studio. I'm not sure I like how it came out.... Here's what was used: * Millennium Cat * Millennium Dragonling * Amestubli (the building and furnishings) * QuirkyBlonde's orange tabby texture for Mil Cat * Freebie "fantasy lyre" item from DAZ. It's actually a lute, not a lyre. Guess the modeler didn't know the difference since a lyre is actually a kind of harp.
