Computer geek extarodinaire, I love to tinker with gadgets and tech items to get them to do what I want. I'm either logically artistic or artisically logical. I'm also rude, crude, semi-barbaric, socially unacceptable, and totally psychotic. On the bright side - I am potentially harmless. I'm currently trying to write some short stories about the fae as well as a novel on those same fae as well as two other novels. The programs I have for photo and image editing are: Photoimpact from Ulead, Adobe Photoshop 7 and Corel Paint Shop Pro 2X. Recently I've added DAZ Studios as well as Terragen, Blender and Google Sketch to my list of programs crowding my hard-drive.  All this and much more on an old Pentium III 450 with 396 Megs of memory and operating Windows XP. It does get interesting at time.As of December 26, 2008, I have added Vue 7 Pioneer to my list of reason of why I'm going insane.
As of January 2010 I upgraded to a new HP 2 dual core processor with 6 gigs onboard mem with 4 gig powerboost and 2.07 terabytes of Hard drivesMy email is faemike55@gmail.com

Cute scene ! Well done !

hey?! is dat the li bird dat goes round telling stuff? i always wonder what kind of bird it was; great job on the scene! and if i were a betting sort, i'd put my money on shadow mapping being a faster render.

Yeah. Probably take about 45 mins. At about that size, on my machine with deep shadow map, takes normally about 2-4 minutes. That's on my multi threaded work station running 4 cpus with 16 gigs of ram. Now, since you are getting a new machine, I must assume what you are running now would take longer. Lol. That would be an average on my smaller machine. Its cool, too. I like the little guys! ")

mikeerson
LOL... I'm not into long renders - YET...I'm sure there will come a time I want to make posters and really need to put some detail in it, but if the render lasts more than a half hour - screw it - lol... Ray tracing is what they call it while rendering in poser too - for mirrors, glass, chrome, water, etc... Deep shadow, hmmmm, I'm gonna have to look for that - AND DISMANTLE IT - lol ...hell no, I don't wnat to wait 7 hours - lol You're more patient than me Mike

i am not patient enough to wait for renders to complete. luckily i am not trying for photorealistic images.

And that's why I post photographs! I would tear out what's left of my hair if I had to wait that long. This is a very cute image. The mouse looks exited. Well done.

this is a fantastic work and i see the birdies are flying around in the galleries. very neat shadow- about raytracing i never used raytracing when i do a reflection i dont do shadows either on the scene. i have not tried to do both shadows/raytracing and reflections as of yet. could be a challenge . i might try on my 4-core machine -indeed i will work on this this afternoon.keeps me busy and i will tell and show you the outcome. thanks for the inspiration. i like when you throw bits into the universe if i may say so and i pick some of them up lol.

jeroni
Beautiful composition. excellent work
Bossie_Boots
You could try adding your own shadows and reflections in your postwork program using your burn tool for shadows and a filter for your reflections i have only recently been able to use raytracing myself as my laptop was so slow and graphics not to clever i had same problem with shadows perhaps ask someone who is a genius with light and shadow to help you because its all to do with your settings i think lol this is really awesome though i love the bird !!

Oh I love the image Mike, and the shadow sure adds to it...awesome work!! Way to go!!
gypsyflame
Wish I could help Mike but even though I have Daz on my computer I can't figure out how to use it so I stay with Bryce mostly and there it is easy as it gives it's own reflections which I can make greater or less...excellent image though, I think it's so cute!
