Description


Beta swam languidly over the edge of the sunken travel disc and waved to her leader, Prime, and the worried security specialist, Alpha. "SEE YOU AFTER I'VE ENJOYED A BIT OF EXPLORATION, DEAR ONES!" She projected into the neural network. "INDEED, BETA. HAVE A CARE!" Prime responded with a wave. Deciding not to share her concerns on the neural network Alpha verbailized to Prime, "Why do I have such a bad feeling about this?" Molly's art notes: A little retro sci fi for a change! Set up and rendered in Poser 12.0.619 using the Superfly Cycles 2 rendering engine and then tweaked a bit in Photoshop (mainly to add a subtle vignette). The ship is Cybertenko's discplane with a few material tweaks (I didn't like the glass in the dome). The discplane's location is in a Lake by 2nd World. The characters are all DAZ generation 3 dollies: V3 improved by Blackhearted's GND 2 morphs and textures, SP improved by Blackhearted's Irina 2 morphs and textures and Aiko 3 improved with some stuff from DAZ. All of the character textures were optimized for Superfly with Snarlygribbly's EZSkin 3 (there is a new version, " 'beta', use with caution" for Poser 12). The uniforms come from an unknown source and are called male comic overlays. There's a lot in the Poser library from more than 15 years ago that my husband got from I don't know where. If you are interested in viewing the series in order, that's easier at my Deviant Art site. Look here: https://www.deviantart.com/mollyfootman/art/Envoys-in-orbit-882644549

Thank you, Paul. The reflection is one of those serendipitous things. I set up the interaction between Beta and her crew mates and when I did a test render there it was. I was careful in fine-tuning the posing and such not to lose it. If you can't be good, be lucky I says! :-)

A most fabulous awesome Sci-Fi underwater scene, impressive atmosphere and lighting, great feeling of underwater depth, brilliant render. Exquisite outfits and assets, gorgeous composition and not the least, a habitable volume filled with air which feels great as well. Magnificent Masterpiece of Finest Arts. I love it.
I assume you have all the vitamins and skills, you might want to slowly get rid of vitamin Photoshop and see what you can get.

I do use Photoshop to tweak pictures but I am trying to get my renderings to the point where little or no tweaking is really necessary. I hope I am not overdoing it with Photoshop. :-(

I really appreciate your kind words. I worked with this picture for several days and rendering it with all the transparent and translucent surfaces that were reflective as well took many hours even with a pretty powerful graphics card.

Thank you, my dear!

Love,

Molly
