Computer geek extarodinaire, I love to tinker with gadgets and tech items to get them to do what I want. I'm either logically artistic or artisically logical. I'm also rude, crude, semi-barbaric, socially unacceptable, and totally psychotic. On the bright side - I am potentially harmless. I'm currently trying to write some short stories about the fae as well as a novel on those same fae as well as two other novels. The programs I have for photo and image editing are: Photoimpact from Ulead, Adobe Photoshop 7 and Corel Paint Shop Pro 2X. Recently I've added DAZ Studios as well as Terragen, Blender and Google Sketch to my list of programs crowding my hard-drive. All this and much more on an old Pentium III 450 with 396 Megs of memory and operating Windows XP. It does get interesting at time.As of December 26, 2008, I have added Vue 7 Pioneer to my list of reason of why I'm going insane.
As of January 2010 I upgraded to a new HP 2 dual core processor with 6 gigs onboard mem with 4 gig powerboost and 2.07 terabytes of Hard drivesMy email is faemike55@gmail.com

Cool prop setting, have not used a Aiko character in years.

Yep, with Iray, you can't rely on the viewport to give you an accurate idea of what the final product will look like. You will get a feel for it though, and at the very least you'll get a surprise. (Of some kind).
Scorpion is kinda cute!

Well if you are going to go into a creepy castle its best to bring a friend with you that can frighten the spirits. You're coming along with Daz very nicely.

this thing has a ton of detail full size. (Full size it crosses my street and breaks into my neighbor's living room...) Love the deep dark details of this mysterious castle. As for Aiko, she has the quality of a fairy goddess just dropped out of the heavens. SUch smooth light and shadow. And she really stands out against all the medieval background. As for the scorpion, he's wearing a dark metal suit today (different from an earlier upload), and he seems right at home in this castle. Sweet sheen on his surface. Striking work, Mike.

Superb fantasy scene with an impressive scorpion, excellent work, Mike!

Superb!!

Dangerous friends she has, but Miho approves :)... Yup, most of the time looking at the Daz viewport, one can't really make out if the render will look good. Only after the rendering starts that becomes clear. The more adventurous you are the better things will be ;) !

Looks great, Mike! Fantastic set. And yup. Honest to God, even after doing a bazillion scenes, it's still magic watching the render process.

I have a feeling that You and Manbat and a few others have something to learn about Iray If you Know it Ok well it is for the ones who Dont Know. it is called the Draw Setting Pane if set to Iray it will Give you a View of what your scene Will Look Like when Rendered it's Icon looks like a Ball with a Gear if it is not next to the little camera Icons you can go to Window Panes (tabs) Draw settings It has Several Setings NVIDIA Iray,Cartoon Shaded,Texture Shaded ,and about seven others Texture shaded is Probly the Defalt and that is why you can't see what your Iray render Looks Like But it is Easy to move your Figures around in this setting. Set it to NVIDIA Iray wait a few Seconds and watch it Develop!

Wonderful clean render

This looks really great, Mike! I do hope the scorpion is well behaved!
I've used that preview Daddywolf mentioned - it works pretty well for things like getting a good feel where the shadows will fall. I usually use texture shaded as it's a bit faster when setting up the scene, but the Iray preview is great for seeing what the final render will look like.
