Got a few (DOZEN) E-mails (here, personal and FB) that said, "Enough with the planes, boats, water and cars! Let's see some more with people in them!" Okay, this is my first render with the new Miki3. I modified her skirt and top a bit to "get in character." For those who don't know, a backwater is a man-made lake created when a dam is built. Water that's well, "back"ed up. Here in the southeast there are many backwater lakes. Done in Vue8 Esprit (still working on my Poser 8 libraries); I could say I dropped my external drive and everything got mixed up but that would be wrong, I did it to myself. Postwork is minor tweaks to the overall picture and having to create a bikini line for her, dag gum bikini didn't import with the rest of her. Imagine that happening to Capt Kirk, "Very funny Scottie, now beam up my clothes." Why is it that you save, and save and save, and just when you buy (Bryce, Vue, Poser...) they come out with a new version that's "new and improved." So that makes mine old and inferior? PHFT! I'm using them anyway! With all the Christmas and Hannakah stuff going on, if I don't get to pop back out here again before 1 Jan, "HAVE A VERY HAPPY HANNAKAH; A MERRY CHRISTMAS and a GLORIOUS NEW YEAR!" and Plasmid, FINISH THE POOL BUD! Just kidding, didn't mean to yell, just anxious to come to a final pane (or in his case, pain?). :o)
