Description
The bored jiggerman looked at the contestants and muttered: "OK. Ready. Steady..."
Olivier leaned toward his Security Chief while eyeing the Captain and her opponent. "Shae, I'm thinking this isn't going to end well."
"You can do it, Captain!" Cadet Zee anxiously murmurs.
Molly's art notes: Set up and rendered in Poser Pro 11 using good ol' Firefly.
From left to right we see two of Amp's clone crewmen (based on the Michael 4 mesh), Amp herself (based on Victoria 4), the jiggerman (based on Michael 4), Security Chief Shae K'Non'Ka (based on the Anastasia modification by Blackhearted of Alyson 2 from Poser Software), Roseanne "Roxie" Rokette (based on the Roxie mesh from Poser Software), First Class Ranger Olivier Montenegro (based on Michael 4) and Cadet Zee (based on Victoria 4). I like to mix up my meshes and use a lot of modification to get variety in my characters.
My story here is the Rangers are on a brief "shore leave" from the Fairlight which is in orbit around a backwater planet called "Snakepit". The Security Chief has taken them to a bar she knew of and they've encountered, Amp, a pirate adventurer who is spoiling for a fight. A test of strength is proposed. What in all the worlds is Captain Rokkette thinking?

Definitely gorgeous composition, impressive lighting, superb atmosphere, brilliant awesome render.
Magnificent Masterpiece of Finest Arts. I love it!
Thank you, Marius! So nice to hear from you! =)

Nirty image.
Thanks, Mazzam. I had fun setting it up.

Love all these characters in this setting! I love the outfit Amp and her crewmen are wearing. It's esp. amusing to see those big guys in outfits with little belly button cut outs and what looks a lot like dark pantyhose! (I think the one guy heard me b/c he's pounding his fist into his hand to demonstrate his manliness!) Amp certainly gets points for style, but never discount the little guy, not even when he's a she. Captain Rokkette's got a lot more to prove, so she might just take this match! Love the lighting, and the bored bartender looks right at home in this post-apocalyptic setting :-) Fun diversity of characters! I loaded up Roxie the other day to check out her clothing, and apparently I have some kind of "Roxie Reborn" for her, as well as a bunch of dynamic clothing, both of which I'd totally forgotten about! (both were probably freebies) I like her determined expression here!
Thanks, Amy. I had a lot of fun refitting AMPs clothing so that her whole clone crew wears the same uniform. And, the clones have great legs... XD
Rosanne "Roxie" Rokette and her crew were my first Space Ranger characters: peacekeepers from the Pax Universae Protectorate. I was channeling old TV like Space Patrol, Captain Z-Rho and Rocky Jones which I watched as a little girl. I am a small person and identified a lot with Roxie and her attitude. The uniforms are actually from a set for Terai Yuki 2 which I refitted for all of them.
Roxie poses well and it's a shame that (as with a lot of the base human characters for Poser) content creators turned their backs and spent all their time and energy on V4 and M4. I'm thinking that was a marketing thing; you make content for figures that everyone has and that was the era when the DAZ gen 4 characters ruled the world in both Studio and Poser. :-\
That marketing thing is still a problem for Poser users. :(

Not really much one can add...my money's on the Ranger..!!.. impressive array of characters...substantial amount of work involved and well worth the time and effort...quality all round image, lighting and render..
Thank you, DG. I like using lots of different meshes and morphs on the popular meshes to have a lot of variation in my characters. When someone notices... <3
Molly
OK - This is gonna be the biggest slap-down since Will Smith and Chris Rock!
Great job on this, Molly! Good ol' Firefly... In these days of iRay, it still holds its own. And you show that so well!
Thank you! I rarely use Firefly these days, but you're right. If you know what you're doing, you can get excellent photo-realistic and artistic results. =)
Molly
a phrase about mant things in my life. and also looks like this ordeal will get heated ha, ha on Rods comment about the Academy awards show.
Violence is never the solution! Can't we all just be FRIENDS! XD
I'm delighted you enjoyed this and I join you in giggling at Rod's take on it.
Molly
This is wonderful scene! Great posing and composition!
Thanks, CD. I should return more often to this bit of the future Mollyverse. I really like Rosanne "Roxie" Rokette and her crew. Kind of a cross between '50s Space Patrol and '60s Star Trek. =)
Molly
Excellent cast of characters and interactions. Very cool scene. Well done
Thank you, Uncollared! I had a lot of fun with it. =)
Molly
I'm just glad i wont be the one sweeping up afterwards! Engaging image and great collection of characters.
Heh. Very good, Joe. I imagined this resulting a a bar room brawl and cleaning up will be the dickens! XD
Molly
Probably the Captain has something up her sleeve :D What a bevy of fun characters and props!
Mostly what she has up her sleeve is her arm. XD
She likely wouldn't have wound up in this position without a lot of the Jiggerman's intoxicants on board.
I'm delighted you enjoyed the picture and the story it tells. =)
Molly
... but I am not so sure :-) They may be strong but definitely not clever. It is fun looking at!
You certainly hit the nail on the head, Annerose! XD
Thank you so much for a lovely comment!
Molly
The blues vs. the browns! What could go wrong? LOL! A marvelous and well posed and populated scene full of marvelous details and stories within stories! Many fine kudos from me!!!!!
Thank you, Rad. I always love telling a story and you are certainly spot on with the idea that there are many stories leading to and from a picture like this. XD
Molly
Very well composed and posed with fun characters. Guessing betty Bouncelot hasn't been used in such role until now....
Heh. Probably this is Betty's first starring role in science fiction. I did this long enough ago that I couuldn't remember where I got all the other character morphs and textures from but I'm sure I could work it out. I wish there were more unusual characters being made but I know that the market demands fit young women mostly and after that men without too much facial character. Thank God for Tempesta3D's sense of "imperfect perfection" and Mortem Vetus' sense of late middle age men of action (Vikings mostly XD ). I shall end my rant here.... =)
Molly
Fenomenal Molly! Also, how many characters, my pc would surely crash in the middle, with me sobbing.
Heh. I will admit my machine was running hard while I was editing the picture! XD If you have enough memory and you don't mind the screen updates being a little slow you can have huge crowd scenes in Poser. =D I should do more pictures with these characters. At least one of them I have you to thank for! <3
Molly
Your latest image is very nicely done! What a highly motivated imagination you must have to come up with fantastic concepts like this!?!
