"Queen of the Sun" By David J. Reid aka "Shardz" Software used: Poser 6, Photoshop CS *~* Dedicated to Smurfette! *~* As promised, here is the stunning Stevian by Ilona in all her irradiating glory as ruler of the Sun. Some might argue who really is ruler of the Sun in various mythos, cultures, and biblical references, but this is my version and that's why this is submitted in the fantasy genre! This version shows much greater detail in what I did in Photoshop with the outfit and displays Stevian's beauty quite a bit better than Antediluvian Arcanum. There are some minor issues in this piece and it's far from perfect, but it exhausted all the time I had to work on it before moving on to other projects. I will probably upload higher resolution versions of the characters like this to display them properly, but we shall see how it goes in time. This image and the last would not have been realized if it weren't for the support, motivation, and inspiration of the great Smurfette! I wish to thank you with all my heart for the creative gift you have given me and for helping to remind me of some rather important aspects in the consequence of design. My time is rather limited lately as life is kicking in; please forgive me for not responding immediately and for not making my complete rounds in the gallery. Sometimes we are given choices in life which force us to make decisions that lead to sacrafice in one form or another; this would be my dilemma I face today. For those who understand, I thank you very much for the consideration; for those who don't, I sincerely apologize. Hopefully things will change to where I am given more free time to entertain certain options. For now I bid you ado, and I shall return soon with yet more magic flinging! Take care, be fair, and please share! *~*~* Credits List *~*~* *~* Retail Stuff *~* Ilona - Stevian Daz3D - Victoria V3 SR2 & Morph Packs Ilona & MadameL - Instant!
