Description
Hello dear friends!
For personal reasons, I will not be posting any more installments of my story. I would like to thank those of you who did follow along with it very much. I will still be posting pics :)
This is the vitrified dragon's egg Ruby spoke of. I created it using the Egg freebie here in the Free Stuff, using shaders in the Mat'l Room. It was a bit of a challenge, but fun.
Stand is from DMR 'Moon Cult' (DAZ), with a bit of modification.

I hope you're having a great weekend! Thanks for your views and comments. They are much appreciated :)

Thank you so much Ray, love that inner glow!
Very lovely image and dedication to Dana. it's eggscactly perfect I am sorry that you won't be posting any more of your story but I respect your decision (whimper)
bummer your scraping your story Ray, hope some day you reconsider starting it back up. love the effects on the egg, looks tremendously real.
Wow, I almost thought it is real! Those materials you used really stand out and gave it a realistic look.
Fantastic material , a real beauty! Bravo!:)
this is a beautiful render Ray, I join those above as for the story.. but, we do what we feel we must~
Excellent render! The egg looks amazing. The materials on the egg and stand look very realistic. Sorry to read the story is stopping. Hopefully because you are going to write it and publish it :)
Very beauty and lovely dedication my friend!!Bravissimo!V:DDD.Hugsxx Whylma
Wonderful work on this one..looks so real....damn, i was just getting back into things from the story..and now your stopping it !!! UGHH !! Respect for your decision though my friend....as long as we don't loose you entirely, that would be a disaster of epic proportions.......as you would be sorely missed :-(
The egg looks excellent. I like that glow that seems to come from inside of it and the material that looks very real. It must have been a lot of work.
Amazing work !
This is very cool!!!!!!
You did a smashing job on the shaders & texture. I'm impressed! No more story...? "/
Beautiful render!!
This piece of artwork is amazing looking!
Wow - this is amazing, Ray! I almost expect to see a dragon break free at any moment. I love how you can almost see a baby dragon inside - those shaders must be amazing.... I really did love the story, and will miss seeing it, but I respect your decision. It takes a lot of work to flesh out the details, write, re-write, re-write again, and do the illustrations on top of that... I'm with Art, though - hope you can publish it at some point.
A brilliant piece,my friend.It's so breakable and thin you can see the little dragon in it and with the stand it is for me a masterpiece! Gr.Rudy.
very cool texturing and render.
Excellent work.
I am sorry to hear that you dont write your story's anymore...but i do respect your decision my friend....i like this render very much.
That's a great egg you created and I enjoyed reading how you created it. I like the textures and how you managed to impart a subtle glow from inside. This egg has a whole pile of dignity and magic. In fact it reeks of magic. I am sorry that the story ends as it does but I trust your reasons whatever they may be. This was one heck of a challenge to follow and it's why I did it in big chunks at a time. I can fairly imagine the challenge of putting it all together. And these epics do take a tole on the soul.
Fantastic piece my friend, spectacular render indeed! Well done!
