gosh, remember back around the time you joined, and for at least a decade or so after, how lively and creative this place was?? and folks were excited, sharing ideas, working together, and there was such a huge variety of styles and mediums being posted... yea, i miss it, too...

love the old time mafia look and finish to your image... super expression... nice work...

Thanks a lot for your comment and like you I really miss the so called "good old times". It was a real community...

Indeed... I joined in 2009, and it was exciting and full of creativity. Poser, DAZ, Vue, and some thought was actually put into the artwork. And EFFORT. Now, it's just type a couple sentences into the AI of your choice, and out comes a photorealistic sexy babe - or 5 - 10.

I know for myself, I've lost a lot of the motivation I used to have - even for my TNA series. But it will continue.

This work is excellent.

Thanx and you are riight....LONG LIVE AI..or better post a lot of pictures to be a famous artist

Yeah, I agree too. A whole lot of the same old same old. The thing that bugs me is when you have a series of very similar images, but rather than post it as a series, they just put up a bunch of individual images. All the same subject, just a slight variation. Bo-ring! And it messes with the gallery pages too by pushing other images to the next page within about an hour on average.

Anyhow, I like the image, reminds me a bit of Jason Statham but grittier and darker.

Thank you...and that's exactly the problem. Just uploading pictures with a small difference and the new pictures disappear. BUT: you are a top artist

you do these portraits so well. A great inspiration your art is x

Thanks a lot for the comment

I keep going because I like creating images. But so many of my followers have disappeared that I'm doing well if I get a dozen comments. And there used to be days when I had thirty ...

I don't use AI here. I do use it to create images to be made into colourful jigsaws at jigidi, but never claim them to be my own work. I had some AI stuff here, but have deleted it all.

I think there should be a gallery here for "AI only" - after all, many of the AI pictures are still being created and being 'chosen by the staff ' ...

Thanks, I feel the same way...The comments are getting fewer and fewer, even if they are good pictures. You just need a lobby and it's no longer about quality

Me again..I have a look at my gallery: https://www.renderosity.com/gallery/items/1597699/last-man-on-earth...96 comments..a very loooong time ago

Superb artwork!

Thank you

100% OK ! The problem is "the" other site is a bit disappointing...just a couple of comments and most of the time only "like" ! Daz Galleries seem better...The minimum they could do here would be to create different galleries (like on Daz), AI, Daz/Poser/Blender etc, Photos...but I'm afraid they're hopeless.

Thank you....it is real crazy...It is a community.. sorry: it was a community, but even if you create new galleries nothing will change...

Fantastic composition. Superb character and rendering👍🙋‍♂️

Thanks again

Excellent rendered artwork!

Thank you very much

I agree with you! So many ugly, basic, poor, simplistic, banal images. AI images made without talent most of the time... I actually comment around one image per week...Like the one you have uploaded. You have a very personal style and you are very talented!

Thank you very much for this great compliment. I always take a look at the DAZ, Poser and Vue Gallery and I make a comment if I have the feeling, that it is interesing. Maybe the lightning, the pov, the postwork and so on

I've been part of this community since 2008, and it's definitely not the same as it used to be.

Thank you...I have been here since 2002 and it is not the same,,,,,

Amazing and dramatic scene. Cool character and scene. Excellent effects.

Thanks a lot

Wonderful

Very interesting character.

Thank you very much

Love the image...agree with kalebdaark about the character...nice gritty style and POV.

I just returned to making 3d images and am discouraged by all the AI stuff out there. But you and some others are a definite inspiration and I hope you stick around.

Thanks a lot for this compliment..and yes, meanwhille you have to use AI, or have a lobby or do the same pictures only with some other pose

Don't look up times, just improving..😊 As classics would say.., let the virus rot..

From waht I see, the virus don't love you too much..

thanks and I am sure that I do not love this rero-virus
