Description
Just a quick bit of playing with Ariel (freebie over at Fantasy Attic) and a few of the hundreds of Apo renders I have laying around..
Ariel was rendered in PP 11.2 (I finally installed the update). It could just be me, but the new Bondware version seems a lot smoother as far as moving figures, props, and even cameras is concerned. I was never really terribly excited about Poser 11 before, but it seems to be working really well with this new version. Thanks to Bondware/Renderosity for giving Poser new life!
One bonus feature I've discovered is I can actually have PP 11 running on one machine, and PP 2014 on another at the same time. I couldn't do that with the SM version - it would give me a message about the serial number running on another machine. Not any more! Sweet!
AND...... Page 42 is in progress, and should be done soon. AND.... There will be a Page 43 before we head into Chapter 7. I had a massive brainstorm last night (must have been the maple plank roasted salmon I had for my birthday dinner...), and came up with an idea for an additional page. Can you say "cliff-hanger?"
We had a wonderful time last night - we were joined by our pals Bill and Tara (Bmac62 and Auntietk) who we met right here on Rendo!
Anyway, before I write a book... Thanks for dropping by and for all your wonderful friendships, comments and support!

Sounds like your birthday was really good and you had fun, Rod!
Very cool image and background! Stellar stuff
Enjoy the Dual-Poser setup while it lasts! If I understand correctly, anything other than Poser Pro 11.2 will stop working when SM Switch off their licensing servers. Until that happens, you’ll probably be OK - but after that date, it’s Poser 11.2 forever. Out of curiosity, can you run two instances of that at the same time?
From what I understand, it was only PoserPro 2014 Game Developer that "phoned home" to the SM servers. I've been disconnected from the internet in the past, and PP 2014 had no problems.
I can run 2 instances of PP 2014 at the same time, but I haven't tried it with PP-11.2 yet - it's only installed on one machine at the moment. Once all the tweaks are done (like Snarlygribbly's AVFIX so EZ-Skin works again), I'll probably install it on a second system. I'll let you know either way, Jay.
A pretty fractal to show of a pretty character. I really like the light around her head.
I'm glad you had a nice birthday.
This is a delightful and beautiful image that you've presented us with. I'm glad your birthday dinner was a blast and that you got to see Bill and Tara.
Super cool image Rod!! I really like the background, and all the dazzling bright lights and special effects.......looking at this image just makes you wanna 'get up and dance'!!!!!!! 'lol'!! I'm glad that you had an awesome 'B-Day' Rod.......that salmon dinner sounds deeeelicious!!!!! I likey!!!!
Nice little render, Rod...am glad you're finding Poser working better for you...I always liked Poser and believe when the team really gets down to business, Poser will really rock...look forward to your next installment :) Glad you had a wonderful BD, and a belated good wishes...
Outstanding creation RodS - love the colors and dynamic look!!!
and a belated Happy Birthday!!!
This is really beautiful work.
Great image!!!
Love the colours and movement
Such a sweet young gal!. Lovely work Sir!
Beautiful! And Happy Birthday!
Very different to your usual playing! I like that effect, it is just what I visualised when reading a science fiction book titled "The Echoing Worlds" a very long time ago. I am glad you've been having fun in between renders, it's about time things went more smoothly!
Great FX . . . . Super cool image!!! Happy belated birthday, my friend!!!
Fabulous!
Great render: lovely character
Very nice work with the fractals and the way they blend with the char :) , and glad to hear you're happy with the new Poser ;)
Original image, great work !
Great job!
And you are correct in that only PP2014 Game Dev and Poser 11.1 phoned home. All other versions of Poser are unaffected by the change!
And I'm totally thrilled you're happy with 11.2!!
This is beautiful!
Talk about something that stands out in a group, wow#. Killer work on those fx Rod. Lighting is so tops. And poser will always be my friend for my art. Love this tremendously. PG 42 whoohoo!
Very cool image and background!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Love the colors and the way she interacts with the background. Also her pose is pretty good!
Fabulous image - love the FX!
I hope you had a great B-day.... man I had totally missed it, with all that was happening here... I think the girls may have something cooking... just be careful if they show up sometime an grab you... they do it to me all the time. awesome work as always and I never congratulated you for being the AOM... awesome work! you deserve it!
Oh, those three can come grab me anytime! As long at it's really them, and not the clones, that is.. 😆
the only Poser I ever had was PP 2014, and I was blown away by how complex the program is (my first foray into 3D), and how intricate its understanding of the elements of an image. (After that, I tried Blender, lost my mind, found it in a basement in Madagascar, and never went back to 3D after that. I swear one can re-create the atom with these programs...) But anyway, I love your apo background, your model weaves in and out of it---really well done, Rod---and is almost dancing in club. And the big halo-explosion is right over her head (more fine composition), and you also lit her with club light---ie, dark light with club interior highlights (that compressed light that one only gets in confined, intense spaces...perfect for the image). And as always, a beautiful piece of clothing, sexy, and perfectly placed; w/ a perfect dance pose. Glad you had a bday dinner with the K-M's! A beautiful image to go along with it; you used the Apo beautifully.
Majorly fantastic image here, Rod! Love the background and the character. A most impressive creation. Bravo! Glad you were able to experience a 'salmon brain inspiration explosion' the like of which neither go nor man has ever experience before. Keep up the good work.
