January 2013
Been at this site five years now and have seen a lot of growth - both artistically and spiritually thanks to the many good friends I have met here. I work with Poserpro2012, photoshop CS6, PSPX2, Perfect Effects 3 and Photomatrix 4. I love working in the material room and continue to find lots of growth there. I also do a lot of postwork fixing, special affects, and framing, all for which photoshop is indispensible. I love doing postwork; no image is anywhere near complete without it.
In the last year or so I've added quite a bit of photography to my gallery. I started with a Nikon Coolpix 9100 point and shoot. It gives amazing quality and its small size makes it easy to pack around and just grab some shots as they come into my vision. I still use it for sneaky people shots but now I use a Nikon D5100 DSLR for my more serious keeper work. Had I known how all consuming my passion for photography would become I should have jumped to a D600 low end pro camera.In my gallery you will see mostly storylines based upon my own visions and versions of Mesopotamian Mythology, sprinkled with some Celtic works and an occasional pinup or two and quite a few special requests. I have long been a writer, though a terrible speller, and so most of my images come with a storyline or poem. No image seems complete to me without words to accompany them.In high school I trained in both the Sciences and Fine Arts but when I went to university I had to choose one or the other and so I went with the life sciences. Art dropped out of my life for a long time... though I never gave up my interest in archeology and mythology. I wound up with a graduate degree in the life sciences with majors in physical geography, ecology and evolutionary biology. My love of nature and a deep naturalistic spirituality eventually led me to the wikkan tradition.Some five and a half years ago I discovered poser after coming across some great 3-d art on the web and after some six months of stumble bum practice I joined this site.Doing this type of art has released many visions and stories that were locked up inside my soul for many ages. It has allowed me to explore the life and times of my primal spiritual ancestor, a girl also named Roxanne, who lived in the Sumerian regions. She whispers the stories of these classic legends in my mind and I create the images to go with them.My stories are mostly written as dialogue and they tend to be rather long. So grab a coffee, a tea or better yet a beer, kick back, relax and stay a while.I hope you enjoy your stay here.Hugs and blessed beRoxy

WOW!!! In the face of adversity you have created quite a scene. The textures are really nice as are the effects. Sweaty skin and all. Mean while we have a real problem brewing for Isimud. Can he choose or will he make Ishtar choose or perhaps Tammuz will have to. Hmmmmmm quite a connundrum. Super image my friend, glad to see it come to fruition :) Don

Lots of patience, lots of frustration, Roxy. Producing an excellent scene with a good narrative to go. As has been said the textures are great and the grouping works well too. More power to you! Dave

Absolute wicked composition ... Amazing details ... I like the little people!!
kitzie21
Well, she drives a mean bargain! I wonder what Ishtar will do? This is a good scene, with great attention to details and a very good composition. As for something missing... lighting perhaps? I wonder if something could have been done with shadows, to add a bit of drama. Don't know, just thinking out loud. It looks really good as is, though. Well done!
Jonrea
Great work, wonderful work with the flames.

Wow, your most complex scene to date! It's a wonder you got this to render at all. I disagree with kitzie here. With all that fire around, trying to render shadows would have been impossible. I think what might have helped is if you had used AO on the props, but then again it would probably have just crashed your comp. It took me a while to notice the little one who is mooning Isimud. How rude! LOL! A wonderful image and narrative. You really are bringing this old tale to life!
