great image Shardz - there's such a lot going on here! Well done on your top 20 hit! Have a great break - you have a good heart:)

Just beautiful!!!! This must have taken forever!

Wow, so stunning as always! Love this one! Excellent job!

I've been out of the loop for a number of reasons - barely have time to log on, let alone read or leave comments, but I read this. Don't know who Meredith is or what the issue concerns, but from what you say, it doesn't sound good. I hope it soon passes and that she'll dwell on those who are encouraging with their words. As for your artwork on this image, it's incredible, with a great attention to detail - great job and nice "special effects" - Here's looking forward to the day when we can all speak the truth in love.

I've put a hex on you! Love that title and the thought behind it. I know nothing of these issues but it sure sounds shallow people taking shallow actions. Hope all is resolved soon and back to normal. Congrats on the H20!

Congradulations on the top 20!!!!You deserve it your work is so very awesome and your heart is so big! I did not know about the meanies that are giving Meredith a bad time...what is wrong with people!!! But like you say..there is a snake at every rainbow and I truely believe that the good out weighs the bad by far!! Have a great time with your visit to the woods...and listen to what it has to say to you..it may be very important! Huge VOTE on this remarkable image! HUGS Chrissy :)

Amazing image David. And congrats on getting into the Hot20. Marvelous work you done here and it's truly stunning, but it so saddens me to hear about what has been happening with Meredith. Perhaps this will help to lift her spirits and this all can be put behind her. At times, I wish we truly could hex the trolls. Very thoughtful of you do do this and far, far beyond excellent. Vote

David, you will be missed by many, including me. It sure was my lucky day when I met you. You are a caring, special person and I feel very priviledged for knowing you. I hope your time away refreshes you but please take care and watch out for those bear! This is another exceptional piece of art, the lighting and your very passionate heorine are just fantastic.... Another ~V~

Hahahahahahahaha!!! I get it! Great comedy with a great render!!

You really got an incredible amount of props into this image!!! Wonderful pose and POV, too!!! Your images always have so much to see!! Have a great and relaxing trip!! Excellent work!!

This is a beautiful image and dedication David. The whole piece screams power! Very well done piece of art :-) Its sad to hear what is happening to our Meredith. As long as there is a comment box or a place to post there will always be trolls :( Excellent work David!!!

Beautifully done! Very lovely character, expression & pose, and a wonderful background, too.

WOW..Awesome image! You will be missed, and congrats on the H20..Excellent work!!!

Gorgeous image!! I love the little gold idol!

Outstanding! Well I, for one, already miss you. :( You're such an incredible addition to this community and such a dear friend. I pray all goes well for you. Learning of what Meredith has gone through has got my hackles up and I agree a hex should be on those who have caused her such grief. You have such amazing talent which is shown in this awesome image so you're more than deserving to have your images reach the hot 20. :D Exceptional artwork! V

So glad to hear that you've worked things out and will be starting off on your adventure. Of course, I will miss you TONS!! Bravo on this image...so wonderfully constructed! I sure love the outfit you've assembled and I hope this sends all those nasty people away for good! Meredith's a dear and deserves much better than being harrassed by thoughtless, petty people. Stay safe, my friend, hope you have some fun, too, and best of luck!!

Excellent work on this image and congrats on the HOT 20!!!! I love all the details you put into this and the lighting is incredible! :-D Also, Thanks so much for the heads-up about Meredith too! I'm gald you pointed it out so I could drop her a line to tell her how mad that makes me. She's such a dear heart and where would we all be without her?? :-D Anyhoo...love your image and again, CONGRATS!!

What a rich and dense picture. Awesome! :D

Hangs my head in shame :o( I received an im from Meredith in which she mentioned being swamped my first reaction was to reply and offer a friendly ear if she needed on then thought if she is so swamped i would only be adding to that so didn't - wish i had gone with my first instinct Sorry Meredith and the offer still stands. ..... A totally gorgeous image love the tones - take care in the woods and watch out for "drop bears" lol Chris :o)

There's some sick bastards out there, I wish they'd get a life... Mate, what do mean the mountains... sounds good for me... see you soon I hope... Hey this image, mate, bloody awesome, clever bugger aren't ya... gotta learn from you... damn good stuff.... Take care and best regards... Deane

Dear David, I too will miss you so much - you have been such a dear friend to me and to everyone here at Renderosity!! And your work is just so amazingly incredible! You always just flabbergast me with your unbelievable attention to detail. And of course, it's a lot more than just a multitude of props - each is but a single note in an allegorical symphony - beautifully composed and conducted! Hmm - a symphony is a good analogy to your art, David. It takes time to pick out and follow a single line you feel first the whole impact of the entire work it is only in later examination, that the individual themes and counter themes become apparent. The massive stone floor with its muted reflections provides the bass while your incredible post work provides the brilliance at the top with the near ultraviolet of her staff! Hmmm - I'm listening to Dvoraks From the New World and I think its creeping into my writing. Let's see - quick clicks with the rodent and Quicksilver Messenger Service arrives with Who Do You Love!! Change of tune and tone! This images ROCKS!!!!!! Youre the Cipollina of Poser Land!!! And that is one hot lady in her more than wicked little outfit!!! And she could well be singing along with music, I walk forty-seven miles of barb wire, I got a cobra snake for a neck tie, I got a brand new house by the road side made out of rattlesnake hide. Got me a chimney made out tiles, made from a human skull, now come take a little walk with me and tell me Who Do You Love!! And staying on a musical theme, while as you said, The Hills are Alive with the Sound of Nail Guns, just think of all the happy families that will be moving back into that burned out area because of you! You do great art, you do great work in this community, and you do great work outside, too!! Totally excellent work and well all keep watch on the Hot 20 for you while youre gone!!! All My Love, Meredith

Great image, love the special fx and all the details! Excellent art!!

Excellent image, and words as well! You rock, Meredith rocks, and all those hoodlums suck eggs. Take care of yourself in the mountains, and you'll be back home looking at and making great art in no time. hugs Ish

Wonderful image, have a good trip, and i hape all goes well for you! :)

Congrats at the top 20. I love the background on this one. Another excellent image and amazing lighting vote Cathy oxoxox

Totally gorgeous image David!! Congrats on the Hot 20 sweetie, you definitely deserve it!! I'm sorry to hear people are harassing Meredith, that's so sad as she's got a heart of gold and only thinks of others, not herself... Have a good trip to the mountains and know that we'll all be missing you like crazy while you're gone and be safe hon!! hugglz :)

Congratiulations to the Hot 20 and we will miss you here around, hope you will be back soon and take care! Your image is like always wonderful and amazing!!! So much gold in this image, everything is shining an wonderful. You made a wonderful image and I just love it!! Be safe!!

OUTSTANDING scene, David. ALL is amazing !!!! you use the lights with magic and your dedication is very beautiful. Thank you

What an amazing and magnificent image. And I am so very sad at your leaving, but after reading Meredith's comment, I am left to assume that you are going off to help others...something you do so very well. I am upset that anyone could be so cruel to such a sweet and caring lady, and I am ashamed that some members of this grand community of ours could be so uncaring and thoughtless. I hope you have empowered her with this wonderful work, and I want to say that I will miss you very much my little glasshoppa. But I and many others will look fondly towards your return, and await the day when your captivating artwork will once again grace this gallery. Godspeed to you my friend, and much love, too {{{Hugs}}}

Another outstanding piece of work. The level of detail, the amount of preplanning and trial and error is staggering! There is so much to look at and discover in this image. The golden hues, the candle light, the reflective floor, icons and last but not least, the main figure! What a triumph and an excellent way to take a break. Going to the mountains?? Do you know something we don't? Should I be stockpiling canned food an water? :) Thank you for this image and for your excellent commentary on my work. Take whatever time you need and we'll be here when you return.
