Holy Crap!! That's NICE!! :} :} :}

The only thing that I noticed was the shading on the foot that is on the floor -- maybe you forgot to put layer behind it?

Otherwise -- AWESOME WORK!! [stuned]

Nice work Rick, most definitely one of your better images. I only think that you should increase the contrast a little to make the shadows a deeper black, but other than that it looks fine to me. Well done

[Tron]

Thanks guys

Joe I can't find he focal blur you mentioned in the other thread is this a CS thing? I use ver 7.

Oh sorry Rick, I just assumed lately that most of us have switched to PCS CS; my bad.
Yes, lens blur was introduced with the release of PC CS, so I guess you have to use Gaussian blur instead.

Thanks Joe, what I am trying is radial blur on a new layer with reduced transparency ?

Greetings Rick,
Very nice work. We especially like the background setting and your creative imagination with this one. Very mystical.

Don't know if this is a Poser "anatomy thing" or not but there is something weird about the forearms on the model. They don't seem quite connected or are a bit contorted and they look a bit longer than normal. Also the skin is that typical dull plastic look which is more a criticism of Poser than of your work with it. You're creating some very nice work here, Rick. Keep it up!

[Tron]

Thanks for the comment, you are right of course the Poser skin tends to have a plastic look, I am working on improving that wih the use of bump maps, I think this is where the solution is hiding. Gort has agreed to help so i am waiting for his input into this matter of textures.

Our friend dv8fx (vee) will be back with us soon, ( he has suffered a death in his family and has taken some time off) but he is a Poser nut as well ( and a good one)

Our own Mod Erik has done some very good work with Poser realisim as well, there are a couple of his works here on the boards somewhere. He has managed to get the most realistic look I have seen so far. But given his artistic ability that is not suprising.

Thanks all 8)) 8)) 8)) 8))
