Description

Although she's a very accomplished musician, Eepo suffers from terrible stage fright and was quite upset when I snuck up on her rehearsing in the fields (which probably explains why she's clutching her bow like a battle axe...!) I've had very little time recently for anything other than work and coping with my father, who's been very unwell for a while. But there's always music to help me through... Posed in Poser 8, rendered in Vue 8 Infinite, signature in Photoshop CS3. Eepo by Nursoda, String Quartet by neilp and HD Fall Maple Tree by Scott2753 - all from Renderosity (see credits below), Grasslands Mega Bundle by Martin Frost from Cornucopia 3D. As always, thanks for looking and for commenting if you do. I hope to start catching up this weekend - two weeks away from Renderosity and my mailbox is full to overflowing again... Craig

I could have sworn I commented on this earlier, so, I'm glad I checked on it again. This is adorable. I love Nursoda's characters. They are full of life. And you have definitely given this one a wonderful scene where it can frolic and play music. The facial expression and pose are perfect for the feeling you wanted to convey. And the hazy colors are warm and lovely. Great intro, too. Music is a great healer as are all the arts. I'm so sorry to hear your father is ill.

well I must say, when I see people like Cathy say that they love Nursoda's characters, I'm totally out of the know. I have no clue how 3D works, but I know that there are characters & creators that you all use, and whoever this character is, you've made a delight out of her. Before saying anything else, I'm truly sorry about your father; and since this is weeks later, I hope he's well or at least not struggling; I hope this finds him in a better condition, and you as well. Re. the piece, this is another proof that everyone must view full size: Not only because your detail bursts full-size, but because your color explodes. Eepo does look like she's taken aback, and I can tell you, having been a classical musician for years, if her teacher saw her hold the bow like that, well...let's put it this way, you'd hear about it in Antarctica. Great touch. Her lighting is dramatic, and I like that she's playing in late day light with the music in shadow, as if emphasizing that music is of the 'air' not of corporeal things. And the tree is a wonderful deep burning orange, to complement her fiery-toned face & body (and maybe even harmonize with the hues of a violin). And the grasses are tall & lush, and have an autumnal gold to them. I know nothing about renders, but I have to assume that you must vary grasses & plants, etc, and that it's tedious. Well, it feels spontaneous to the viewer. And it's another of your dramatic skies, with peach-orange hued highlights and lots of shadow. I live not too far from what was once miles of prairie grass, and this kind of scene was once common. And the use of Eepo just emphasizes the fairy tale element to a light that is always enchanted & magical. As an old classical pianist, I say: Bravo. I have a feeling she's good (though that bow technique is gonna get her in trouble, I promise). Another witty & beautiful render from you; and I'm beginning to realize that you have caverns of golden light out of deep reaches of space in you. Chiarascuro isn't really the word; more like golden light emergent. I think Rembrandt would feel at home with you...
