Description
When I created this background image, the world of vampires came to mind and this scene emerged from the dark recesses of my runtime folders. I am loving the new Daz 3 and can't wait to learn more about it.

Very nice image:-)
Beautiful image Cathy! Love the blacks and reds!
A very beautiful image. Nicely set out... and a bloody good background.
Looks great to me Cathy and I love that background image you created
This looks like a character from one of Anne Rice's novels .. awesome and stunning and beautiful!
Beautiful yet deadly character:at least for us humans! Neat Gothic render, Cathy.
A Most Elegant piece of art...Bravo. The composition and the colors are fantastic
Beautiful, and I love the pose, what an attitude, just by a glance and tilt of the head, great job.
This is wonderful artwork indeed
This is so lovely! I love the background and your whole composition.
Great pose and facial expression, very well done! Great bg too! Excellent work!
Splendid artwork !
Beautiful image and superb background! Very good expression too.
Excellent artwork!
Exquisite, emotive render. Stunning background and metal work.
Beautiful dark gothic scene excellent pose and lighting.....well done.
Very nice scene. Great character, outfit and lighting! Really nice work.
A realy wonderful composition and expression!!!I like the colors and the lighting!!!
What a stunning composition! The blood red is an excellent chosen colour to give off that 'vampire', Gothic look.. and yet she is so very delicate and pretty.... She seems harmless, really. Most lovely skin and outfit! Her hair, so rich and shiny! Incredible border, and overall mastery, my friend!
Very nicely done! I would love to see another one, maybe with the mask on! :) You pulled the look off very well.
Cool idea, adiemas. I'll get to work on another variation next week. Thanks for the suggestion. : )
fantastic work !
I've just posted a photo on German Gothic heritage and open your gallery to find a Gothic lady:-) A superb composition and your model has a soul and seems lost in nostalgic reverie...Excellent!
this is elegant goth at its best... bravo
Red can be a difficult color to work with but you have used it extremely well here in your render. In fact, probably no other color would have worked so well with the character, setting and mood. Kudos to you on your render.
Fantastic render, excellent colors and mood!
The background does bring all kinds of wonderful gothic ideas to mind. I think you've really nailed the classic elements here. Well done!
Cathy, this is simply beautiful work -love "the back story", the rummage of white and red.
marveolus scene...superb the expression....magnifico work...Bravissimo..!!!
it's really nice that you told us that the image emerged out of the background (ie, you had the background first, then the image came to mind): That's how a lot of art is. Nice coordination between the red of her inner gown and the red of the background and the frame. And your design is chosen well (the gate & its details). Nicely creepy & with beauty, and with your usual sense of intelligence & design. I realize by now that you have a sense of when to 'stop': You don't crowd your designs unless they need to be. It's a hard-fought quality (don't even ask), and your background in the arts must have given it to you over time. Sensitive and intelligent work as always. And her vampirish qualities are nicely pulsing behind her...
