Description
When I first found my way into fantasy books there was of course the Hobbit and Lord of the Rings. Then, there was another book that grabbed me. It was Dragonlance. The artwork on the cover grabbed me instantly. It was an image done by Larry Elmore (www.larryelmore.com) Over the years his work has truly inspired me. This is a rendition of, IMHO, one of his finest pieces titled Avalyne the Life Giver. Just wished to pay tribute to someone that I have looked up to for a very long time.
Aside from glow effect and sky, rendered entirely in Poser 7. Image is staring V3 as the cleric, The Freak as our mighty giant and, introducing Michael 3 as the slain warrior.
Thank you all so much for your kind comments on my previous image
Best wishes to you all

I love Larry Elmore's art! But Dragonlance or Forgotten Realms have never been my favourite settings.
Very nice render! I remember when his image first showed up in Dragon Magazine. Very nice tribute.

Beautiful work. Nice image, very good composition.
Ooooooooooooh cool love the big dude at the back
Beautiful scene, excellent work!!!!!!!!!!!!
well done - I enjoy Elmore as well
Excellent work. Wonderfully done tribute to one of my favorite artist as well.
This is intrigueing.... I like intrigue/. Its the root element and source of fascination for any image and if the image doesnt generate curiosity its failed. Thanks for calling by, sorry to have taken so long but Ive been working in other arenas, making a totally new animation forum the kind of which just isnt on the web at the moment so I wanted to be first. That aside, yes Ive looked at the particle effects in alot of other software but nothings as easy as iClone realy. And the output is very charming. There's some good work here, alot of time in it. Its worth anyones time for a browse through. Keep going. Armstrong.
Wonderful image, you really captured this scene so perfectly.
great picture and the poses are excellent!
