    OK, here we go. I call it the "Mystic Being"

    Let me know what you think!

    Character: DAZ David
    Skin: PW-GazerV3M3 Texture
    Clothes: EgyptianSkirtLong-M
    Props: CrystalWand by Thorneworks
    Jepes BoltProps: Electric 1 & Electric 82
    NChain2-F (Nose Chain)
    3 Bridge Studs (resized accordingly)

    Post work, background and text created in PS-CS

    Character posing is not all that easy, even once you get the hang of it. The nice thing is that you can save pose, lighting and camera files seperately to use again. Smiley

    Beautiful!!

    I'm new here, and I sure don't knew anything about Art or Character Posing, just what I see, and the only thing I'm not too crazy about is the chin...She has such a beautiful face, and I think the chain distract from her beauty. Even though, if the chain has to stay, I think you did a wonderful job, I even think colors are great

    I love it!

    Thank you Lorraine for the compliments and the critique.

    Actually it's a male!!

    I like the nose chain, so yes, it stays.

    3D modeling is fun but it can be expensive. If you are interested in checking it out more thoroughly you can go check it out here:

    Have fun!

    This is awesome I love this... I really like the wand or whatever that he is holding. I like the texture of the skin. I love the what Im guessing is blue tatoo's or something on his skin... Kinda gives it a modern feel, I like the nose chain...!!

    This is beautiful, Richard. Great postwork, too. But with all that electrical activity in the wand, I would think the poor fella's hair would be standing on their ends! . And he'd probably get a severely burned nostril if one of the sparks jumped to his nosering...
    Just kidding. I like this, really.

    Hey thanks guys for the viewing!

    Graf, heh, well considering he's the one that creating the energy I think his hair is just fine and relaxed!!

    Yea, that's the CrystalWand mentioned in the description Rian.

    Believe it or not the electrical energy is not from Photoshop, it's a 3D prop. It's actually a flat, 3D square with a png map loaded up as the image file and then another png map loaded to create the alpha transparency. So when you light it up with a spot light or a point light it seems to flare to life. Very cool.

    Jepe, the artist is my favorite in the business. He creates very very realistic hairy body maps for men and his not so hairy maps for both male and female figures that all look very good too. He does it all. Got motion scripts, props like the electrical, smoke, energy bursts, color strobe effects and a whole mess of other stuff. He's a very good artist in that he takes his time and does it right. If you ever get in to this sort of thing you will see what I mean. Some good stuff and some bad stuff.

    Boy! I guess I just didn't look down far enough. I thought she was a warrior of some kind. Even still, HE is beautiful.

    Geez, I have a hard time learning PhotoImpact, let alone learning how to make a person like that, using another program. I'll have to keep this Topic, and your link handy, who knows maybe one day I'll get the courage to try
