Prime pondered the readouts as she leaned companionably over her security officer's shoulder. "Are you sure the collapsar drive is automatically realigning? It will certainly come back on line?" "Ah, Void! I'm not sure of anything, Prime," Alpha replied. "I hate to keep fiddling with it, but..." her voice trailed off as she concentrated on the instruments. Meanwhile, Beta, now dressed as an earth woman about to go free diving pauses at the end of the ramp leading up from the utility decks and clears her throat. Molly's art notes: A little retro sci fi for a change! Set up and rendered in Poser 12.0.500 using the Superfly Cycles 2 rendering engine and then tweaked a bit in Photoshop (mainly to add a subtle vignette). The ship is Cybertenko's discplane with a few material tweaks (I didn't like the glass in the dome). The discplane's location is in a Lake by 2nd World. The characters are all DAZ generation 3 dollies: V3 improved by Blackhearted's GND 2 morphs and textures, SP improved by Blackhearted's Irina 2 morphs and textures and Aiko 3 improved with some stuff from DAZ. All of the character textures were optimized for Superfly with Snarlygribbly's EZSkin 3 (there is a new version, "beta use with caution" for Poser 12). The uniforms come from an unknown source and are called male comic overlays. There's a lot in the Poser library from more than 15 years ago that my husband got from I don't know where.
