Way back in 2010, Mike (mrestey) posted an artwork with this young lady, who seriously wanted to become a member of the TNA team - you can see his image HERE. Well, Xica was accepted after a series of comprehensive tests and background checks, and immediately began TNA's intensive training program. She has been an enthusiastic trainee, and is always at the top of her class. She is almost ready for action! In this declassified photo, she is seen during a 'breaching and clearing' excercise armed with the deadly Destiny weapon by ChuckNepo Industries. 12 "hostile" targets were hit within 20 seconds - 3 of them were hit twice. All hits were fatals. There is very little Photoshop postwork in this image - a little bit of enhancement to the laser beam, and a run through Virtual Photographer to give it a bit of a hazy effect. The laser beam was actually done in Poser - it's just a cylinder prop that was resized to about 8%, then stretched along the "Y" axis about 10,000%. I gave it a blue ambient color in the mat room, and dialed the intensity up to about 0.80000. The wall is the Wall of Litany freebie by DM, and the wall in the BG is Gothic Prison, a freebie by Aery Soul (now AlphaSeed). Services for Mom were yesterday - she is at peace, and now the healing can begin... Again, THANK YOU all for making a difficult time much less painful. You all ROCK! Thanks as always for all your wonderful comments, faves and support! Now, back to getting caught up on comments! :-P
