Description
Zlata and little Murphy are almost at Grandmother's house! Zlata loves the snow, and she has been dancing all the way! You can see that Zlata has dropped her hat, but Murphy found it and is carrying it for her. They've made their way through the enchanted woods, and now only have to cross the bridge to have hot chocolate and sit by the fire with Grandmother. There are stories to be told and a snack to be had before they drift off to sleep and wake up to fun in the snow. But first there are morning chores. They don't mind, for Grandmother can make even the most boring chores fun!
I'm not real happy with how this turned out, but finally gave up and posted it anyway. I can't seem to soften the bridge enough to suit me so it will fit in better with Jane Eden's beautiful Winter Moods background. This is Winter Moods 10.
Murphy is of course mine, my little Murphmeister, grins. The bridge, lampost, and Zlata are tubes, png files by romiposer. I don't remember how I found her work, but you can go to
romiposer.blogspot.
She has so many awesome things here.
Many thanks to Jane Eden for the lovely backgrounds. They are much fun to work with, and so easy to "adapt". I did a little cloning and a little brush work, just to allow the bridge the to sort of work. Any thoughts on how to soften something like that bridge, to fit in with all that lovely sparkling soft snow?
Also want to thank you all for being so supportive, for stopping to view and leave treasured comments and for the faves.

Couldn't figure out how to do a production credit for Romiposer, who doesn't seem to have a presence here at Rendo. Anyone have any advice if that can be done for a source outside of the rendo/daz/poser circle?

this is cool Rita... zlata's pose is perfect, murphy looks like he's in this photo, you even put footsteps in the snow...I've been looking at Boris paintings and I still have yet to come across a bad figure - are you sure it was Boris that you're thinking of? I stayed up all night and I'm working on a king kong picture - lol... I really need to get some sleep and it is now noon. murgpy dragging the hat is cool I thought it was Zlata's boyfriend - lol

Rita, this is about the most fun and magical winter image I've ever seen my friend. You should be so proud of how it turned out as this one truly made my day. Love the story behind the image and little Murphy saving her hat.

Very cozy image, Rita, it is nice to see snow, even if its not real. We are very low on the snow department in my neck of the woods. You've done a beautiful job, and the scene is superb!!!!!

This really is a wonderful scene Rita and little Murphy is so well trained. He looks to be taking the snow in his stride too with Zlata and I like the footprints. I think your bridge looks fine but if you do want to lighten it I do it as I am manouvering it into place and run that transparency button over it. I'm not sure how you could do it once in place except perhaps use the smudge brush or blend it. I hope someone comes up with the correct way to do it for you.

A fun and beautiful scene.:)

I think it's an absolutely heavenly, wonderful winterworld. I love it love it love it! I think you did wonders with it...everything blends together seamlessly. You're right, the bridge stands out a little, maybe bring down the opacity of the layer on which it sits. Maybe a little blue/grey haze. Seems like it might help to warp the left side of the pathway up into the wall to make the line where wall and path meet curve upward a bit...could be an issue of perspective not being quite right. I gotta try something like this. It's beautiful, and it looks like a whole lot of fun.
