Used DAZ Studio to pose the figure(s). I know I'm working with 3D models and some think that's cheating but I know how to paint and I'm quite proficient in vectors but this is something I'm interested in doing for right now. It IS a challenge, trust me!! http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif Getting the lighting and the Surfaces just right is a very technical and creative process. Posing that cloth took hours, litteraly. I could have painted it quicker, I'm sure but I really enjoyed putting this piece together. So enjoy!! http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/smile.gif

Here's the list of models I worked with:

DAZ Studio 0.9.12.6
David (3D's model)
Head & Body Morphs
Serenity Halo (3D Model)
Angelyna Wings (LOVE these wings!!) (3D Model)
Loki Hair (3D Model) and
Posable Cloth (3D Model)

Finished in Photoshop CS using the smudge tool to smooth out some of the hard lines created by the rendering engine (3Delight), esp in the poseable cloth!! Background stary background partially created in Xara X (vector) and saved as an image file. 8 Photoshop layers in all.

Hi Richard,

I stumbled through that age already... At least I think so. I know I am over 21 and that is when I stopped counting. http://www.talkgraphics.com/images/smilies/biggrin.gif
