Description
An Elf Maiden ran into a less than savory group and had to run for safety. She made it to a nearby Temple where she collapsed out of breath, unable to go another step. As luck would have it, a young warrior was nearing the Temple and recognized the group as the same bunch that had accosted her a few years ago. She would finally get her revenge. Drawing her sword, she stood in front of the prostrate elf and challenged the leader of the group to fight. Helpless maidens he could tackle, but fully trained warriors -especially one with this kind of fire in her eyes - were too much. He beat a hasty retreat and his followers scattered. The Warrior escorted the young Elf to her village and went on with a lighter heart and a measure of peace.
Still clearing out Poser 7 images. Poser 10 and my computer are still having arguments. I NEED ADVICE FROM SOMEONE WHO KNOWS MACS!
Poser 10 stops rendering or crashes when the scene get the least bit complicated - like adding leafy trees or a second figure with SSS textures. I don't know if it I need a better graphics card or a better processor or a new hobby. If anyone has any advice, contact me and I'll give you the details of my system. Thanks!

Very nice. As for the windows 10 issues, my laptop is having the same. I've learned that the graphics card I have in it has no drivers for windows 10. Had I known, I never would have upgraded. Microsoft failed to warn anyone of that and where it doesn't affect casual users, software like poser and some games are definitely affected. The advice I was given by microsoft was to re-install windows 7 and if I didn't have the CDs (which I don't, it didn't come with the computer) I'd have to buy it.
I've decided to just buy a new laptop when I can.
Excellent!
ill keep my distance...her sword looks longer then mine! Great job!!
A beautiful render and story. Sorry I can't help with your computer as a I don't have a mac. I did have a lot of problems when I first installed win 10th but they seem to have been fixed thank goodness. ☺
So the maiden is lucky in the end. Wonderful image! ;-)
Excellent render and scene. well done
Marvelous image!
Wish I could help you with your troubles, Terri, sorry. Too poor to buy Poser and no offense, but you couldn't pay me to use a Mac 'n turd.
Excellent Image and great Details!!!
Beautiful story well illustrated. Looks good.
Wonderful scene and creation!
Nice work! Cool poses and render. I like that she achieved some measure of revenge without killing.
Fantastic Render with nice Action! Nice character, outfit and pose! Very well done, Teri!
She is a formidable warrior! I'm afraid that my computer will crash if I go beyond Poser 9.
Excellent
A beautiful image and wonderful story! A fine ending too! Magnificent creation! I am sorry but I know nothing about Macs.
Risky indeed
Excellent scene! I wish I could help you with the issues you're having with Poser 10, but I have a PC, not a Mac. I did have a few problems myself with Poser 10 when I first installed it, in fact I had to install it numerous times before it finally worked for me. I was ready to give up on Poser all together for a while there. I got a lot of answers to my questions from the forums, particularly here on Renderosity, and now it seems to be rendering fine. I hope someone can help you with this, I know how frustrating this can be.
professional art work!!!!
Excellent, my action scenes always seem to look overly posed, unlike this.
a very cinematic moment: It's photograph-like, but very cinematic in that it has a lot of action packed into one moment. Really fine composition, with the elf maiden laid out beautifully at the warrior's feet (well, behind them), with a very theatrical lighting---intense, almost super-real (as in theater). And the warrior is angled to our left, while her gaze and shield are angled to our right---real balance there. It's a small point, but it makes for a strong and beautiful composition.
And your use of background is splendid: It's all framed by the arch in the back and the arch in front, and those big beautiful pillars on each side. (Marble, I assume.) And they stand/lie on tiered marble slabs, again very theatrical (like something from Ancient Greek theater, in the round). Your light is filled with a silvery, chrome-like yellow---it has a silvery tone to it, which is dramatic and beautiful. Almost as if this were tinged in bronze. And the greens and pale pink-peach-ambers in the background are very restful against all this drama. In fact, those tones are present in the two women as well. And the clothes, gowns, etc are placed on both women beautifully.
Happy Birthday!!! I'm a few days late, but it's never too late to say it. (I found out in Yves' gallery.) I hope you had a fine time, and that it lasts more than one day. And re your problems with Poser and your Mac: I know Mac's but not Poser...so I'm of no use there. But I can tell you that it never hurts to get better graphics cards and the best processors you can get (if it's possible to upgrade the mac you have). Will that solve your Poser problem? I have no idea. But it will make everything better overall. Hopefully some of your many fans will be able to help you with Poser...Photoshop is as far as I go, visually. I tried Painter, but the results were so awful, I wouldn't show them to a cockroach...Anyway, a very finely conceived image, and it suits your tale perfectly.
nicely done
fine work
outstanding scene and poses
This is a great scene - lots of action. I have a Mac, but I don't use Poser. It's probably your video card. Does Poser have a setting where you can tell it what video card you are using? The reason I mention it is because I was having a similar issue with Vue grinding to a halt, but there was a display setting that I found and when I changed it, it made a lot of difference. Sorry I can't be of more help.
Excellent
Thats a very nice scene. I can't help with mac ... sorry :(
Superb and courageous warrior who defends the girl falling on the ground! Excellent fantasy image!
