Thetis was a sea nymph, one of the Nereids, daughter of Nereus (the god of the sea) and Doris. She was fated to bear a son who would be mightier than his father. Fearing for his dominion, Zeus gave Thetis as bride to a mortal, Peleus. Him she bore the son Achilles, whom she tried unsuccessfully to make immortal. The mostly known version of that is, that she dipped the child in the river Styx holding him by the heel; all the parts that the river touched became invulnerable, but the heel. Achilleus fate was to live happy with his family and die unknown or be to become a great hero. He decided to fight and die heroic at Troy.

OMG, I know, I know! Poser has a voracious appetite for RAM. When I went from 4 to 12GB of RAM, most of my Poser woes subsided. It still sometimes crashes on complicated renders though. I think that may be because I'm using a Mac and can't add a really massive video card--and, I may be wrong, but I have the feeling the video card comes into play during renders too! The image is beautiful. Definitely worth the frustrations! What is so great to me -- in addition to really perfect fashion and color palette -- is the way you've orchestrated her expression and posture/pose to convey a remarkable attitude. And what was it Freud said about cigars. Beautiful work.

This has happened to me too! Render just stops dead if I open a browser. But to your work. I love the reds here. A beautiful portrait, and the cigar and her pose really convey a great mood.:)

Sorry to hear about your Poser problems. It is soooo.... frustrating when things don't go right eh! This is a fabulous render with superb posing and great lighting. I love those sheers too.

This is gorgeous! I am glad you were able to get this one out! Have you tried Edit, general preferences and clicking Separate Process under the render tab? That worked for me before I got my new system.
