Description
"and ya gotta believe me, I saw it, I saw it with my own two eyes." So goes some of the lyrics from the old Black Sabbath (Paranoid album) song that I swiped the title for this from.
I dedicate this to Adrie and while it's not my usual style I did have a pretty good time putting it together. I was pretty shocked here a while back when she relayed that she'd been having problems with a member giving her grief over her images, etc. Now I don't really know Adrie except for her wonderful gallery (which I'm glad she's putting back together for us) and have never seen her ever give anyone other than the nicest of comments on their works so I was somewhat dismayed when all of that was going on.
Suffice to say I'm glad she's put it behind her and is carrying on, I was also glad to see the overwhelming support she got from her friends and fans here, not only in comments and rants but in the dedications and images for her. This, to me, is what being a community is all about.

With boots like those, them tiny fairy wings won't get her off the ground. Guess those boots were made for walking. ^_^ Nice picture.
She deserves better than to be treated poorly. A true heart. Nice of you to dedicate to her. ")
STUNNING image here, Don, WOW! A great sentiment too. :) LOL, you think you've seen it all and then... nope. It never ceases to amaze me the amount of energy people waste specifically to trash someone else. If I really hated someone or their art that much, I simply ignore them and move on. It speaks much more to the pathetic nature of those seeking this kind of outlet than it does the targets of their little rages. All they succeed in doing, truly, is making themselves the object of mockery. Beautiful, beautiful work here! THIS is going to my favourites. :)
Really beautiful image. The night lighting and of course the lovely fae are superb. The lighting and fog effects came out nice and I really like those trees and tree textures. Beautiful render and nice dedi to the very kind Adrie.
you mean the black sabbath tune, jack the stripper/faeries were boots? nic eatmo and lighting my friend. can hear ozzy singing now.
Lovely image my friend, spectacular colors and character, loved it!
Nice image, and nice comments as well.

..And they look mighty good in them, too! At least this one does... A delightful and fun - and superbly done - dedication for Adrie! Much applause! She's such a sweet and gentle lady; I can't imagine what kind of low-life would want to be hurtful to her.
yeah we got to keep this place clean.something else is worrying me this morning i saw the lowest amount of artists online since i joined in 2008- around 880. this looks to me like an exodus,recently lots of decline in comments and favs,its sometimes like a graveyard,i remember times when i uploaded an image i had 5 comments in the first ten minutes,people jumped on my gallerie like vultures muahahahah.now sometimes ya wait a couple of hours before the first comment comes. i think a lot of things come together. economically lots of peole cant afford a fast internet connection,let alone buy stuff for their 3d application. maybe also the renderosity site changes chased a few artists away. and as we see some of us go home (see rodolfo criminelli passed away RIP Bro). i will stick around as long as i can breathe. very nice work by the way and great idea to use the bootleggerz.
It's such a beautiful looking work!
Beautiful render and dedi! Excellant lighting and love those boots. Just image how long it takes to tie them up..
