Description
Lawrence Probst tried not to let his exasperation with his daughter show. "Look, Papi," she said. "Dar and me, we've been under your tutelage since you retired from crime fighting. Surely we're ready for a simple case like the murder over on fourth street, no?" Darlene Kedge kept her counsel while her cousin pleaded their case to the man who was, at one time, Dark Wave, the scourge of crime in Midland.
Molly's art notes: Set up and rendered in Poser 13.3.1041 using the Superfly rendering engine. Darlene Kedge is based on V4. Lillian Probst is based on the Kids 4 with EXTENSIVE modifications. Lawrence Probst is based on M4. Their background is by Art Collaborative.
These are original characters. As noted, Lawrence Probst is a retired vigilante crime fighter. His daughter Lillian has been training to become Li'l Problem, a new young vigilante science hero. Her cousin, Darlene Kedge, the daughter of Lawrence's sister, is the secret identity of Dark Edge, another aspiring vigilante in training. The girls are college Freshman at Midland University.

This is a nice render and he is a big dude.
Thanks for the encouragement, P4me. =)
He IS a bit dude! I pictured Lawrence to be about 6 feet and 5 inches in height compated to his daughter's 4 feet and 3 inches and his niece's 5 feet and 5 inches. I liked the idea of the girls being very different in height from their mentor. I just love MortemVetus' characters for M4 and have used them before.
Molly
Stellar work.
Thank you, Darius. I fussed with it quite a long time before I decided it was good enough to share. ;-)
Molly
Excellent render with great lighting!
Thank you, my dear. The lighting is pretty simple but DID come out well with some dramatic shadow's on Lawrence's face. I had to use a ghost light in addition to the overhead light coming from behind, otherwise the girls would have been to shadowed to make out their features... so I cheated a bit, I guess. =)
Molly
Très belle composition et lumières.
Merci beaucoup, ma chère ! C'est une image simple, mais j'ai travaillé dessus pendant longtemps et j'apprécie vraiment vos gentils encouragements !
Molly
Beautiful morphing work, highlighted by the lighting.
Sounds like you are referring to Lawrence's face which has the most dramatic shadows on it. Actually the most work on morphing and shape alteration was done on the short girl, Lillian, as she is based on the Kids 4 mesh.
Whatever it was that struck you about the lighting and use of morphs, I am grateful for your kind encouragement! <3
Molly
Looks like somebody is in trouble...
...or about to get into some trouble! =)
Thanks for leaving me a comment, my dear. I really appreciate it! =)
Molly
Superb render!
Thank you, my dear. I really appreciate your kind comment and always look forward to hearing from you. =)
Molly
Great cast of characters and lighting. Well done
Thank you, my dear! I think these characters are worthy of a story (which I may or may not ever get to >.< ). Thanks so much for the encouragement! =)
Molly
to quote Mr.Berlin, "there may be trouble ahead"...
So true for most of my characters, Joe. I appreciate your comment and love the song. =)
Molly
They both look like good candidates for the new TNA Training facility. Top Secret, of course.. You gotta love Gen. 4...
Really excellent work on this, Molly!
Thanks, Rod. It's always great hearing from you and I'm honored that you think Lil and Dar might be candidates for TNA. XD
I think pretty much all the legacy content available to Poser users is very serviceable with a bit of tweaking but admit that the DAZ gen 4 base figures are easily the best legacy material out there.
All that said, the most current content (LF2 and LH2) really haven't had a fair shake and have the potential to be vastly superior to the legacy content. Although she's lovely, I'm a bit on the fence with Dawn 2. =/

Hi molly - always good to see you posting.
The girls didn't get their crime fighting fashion tips from Papa...
The characters are all quite well done with well-developed backstories and worthy of further exposure. The story seems to have potential.
Wish MortemVetus made current or near current AZ characters. I'd buy tyem for the textures alone.
Thanks, JD. Of course, the girls have different costumes when they're out doing science hero stuff! XD I appreciate the feedback on my character ideas and I may do a story with them at DeviantArt where I post most of my comic book styled work.
As for MortemVetus? Their work is SO good. I have to do a bit of tweaking but even older textures like Graycrest render very well in Poser. =)
