Description
Here's some retro science fantasy styled after the Golden Age. It introduces Adonis "Don" Darkfield, his partner Zheng Lo and their nemesis Peorth, Queen of the Space Pirates.
Molly's art notes: Set up and rendered in Poser 12.0.757 using Superfly Cycles 2 with a bit of post work in Photoshop to add glow and a subtle vignette. Laid out as a comic book page with Comic Life 3. Don Darkfield is based on L'Homme with morphs by Tempesta3d. Zheng Lo is set up with La Femme using morphs by Mixas. The Saucer craft and space sphere view is by Coflek-Gnorg. The setting is by TruForm.

Very impressive page setup on this comic book style look. Easily can read the fonts. 5+
Thanks! The software I use makes it pretty easy to set things up so they are legible. I try hard to make things readable and to find a page flow that makes sense.
Molly
Brilliant work on pages one and two...looking really good, fantastic text and wonderful comic book style font..!!
Thank you! The Comic Life software is very good for this kind of thing although probably limited for a truly professional application. I really am delighted that you enjoyed what I have shared so far enough to leave me a comment! <3
Molly
Fantastic comic work!
Thank you so much for the encouraging comment, my dear!
Molly
This has a classic sci-fi feel to it. Well done.
I was going for a "Golden Age" feel. I stated reading comic books at the end of the Golden Age and into the Silver Age when I was a little girl. I remember this kind of stuff fondly. I'm grateful for your validating comment, my dear! =)

Another Molly gem. Like the comic look - wonder if Comic Life is available for DAZ...
Thanks, JD. As for Comic Life, it's not a Poser plug-in but rather a free-standing bit of software for laying out pages. Each panel is a single Poser picture that was rendered in Poser and saved as a jpeg and then formatted into the page. Dialogue and narration clouds and boxes are easily added with the Comic Life software and it's easy to set up a style for a particular story. If you are interested, it's pretty reasonably priced; have a look at plasq.com. There are definitely more professional page layout programs out there but this one is the right combination of features for an amateur like moi. =P

Outstanding brilliant awesome Sci-Fi composition, wonderful story, gorgeous realistic atmosphere and lighting, equisite render.
Magnificent Masterpiece of Finest Arts. I love it! @JD, Comic Life is available but, only on Sundays when they are closed...
Thanks, Marius! Only on Sundays when they are closed? >.<

rally like that first cell, Molly, great lead into the tale and first and last cell contrast are visually well done, up there and down there, super work
Thanks, Paul. I've been working at graphic story-telling for a long time and the comic book/graphic novel format is challenging and more work than most appreciate. The first panel should be some kind of visual hook, as is the cover of a graphic novel. It is so pleasing that you think I succeeded with that here! <3
Molly
Your newest 2 images (illustrations) are both fantastic looking! You did a great job here!
Thank you, Ute. The graphic novel format is challenging and I appreciate your kind words very much!
Molly
I said it already but I say it again: fenomenal!
Oh my! Thank you, Lori! I couldn't do such things without the lovely content you make! <3
Molly
Smoke trails, lens flares, composition ... perfect work =)
Thank you! I'm always worried about going overboard with postwork and I'm glad you think I'm still on the side of tasteful here! XD
