Description
Now retired Lieutenant William Farnsworth is saddened, as he remembers that fateful day when his plane was shot down and his legs were paralyzed. He thinks to himself, "War is not always glory..."
Dedicated to those who have lost life and limb in the wars of the past and the wars of the now.
Disclaimer: This is not for or against the current war, just for soldiers everywhere...
Comments welcome.
Thanks for looking and feel free to stop by my other images if you get a moment.
Poser/Photoshop/Painter/Vue
I wanted to do a real emotional piece for a change, since I always do lighthearted stuff in general.
Farnsworth was rendered in Poser, the background was rendered in Vue and then it was postworked in Painter/Photoshop to touch up the texture, and add effects to the airplanes...
While I rarely get super excited over products I buy, I have to say that Boris by capsces is a must for Mike owners. It's what Daz should have put into Mike to make just about every character you can think of. I highly recommend checking it out...Farnsworth is my first character with Boris, but it won't be the last...

Extraordinary artistry Shadow. I love this new character and I hope you will do more with him. The texture work is flawless and very realistic. I feel as though I am watching this story unfold. All of this along with the very excellent work you have done with the planes, especially the one shot down and the ominous looking clouds present a very well executed composition. Just brilliant! I think I need to look at this product!
very well done. Concept is valuable, and teh modeling is so great. A true masterwork. With a deep sense behind.
ahh Very beautiful and emotional.. I am touched S
A wonderful piece of work. Your character displays emotion and individuality; your composition is bang on the money.
Its an amazing concept.. amazingly done.. a piece of art and very touching image! You know your way to reach people.. keep on!
Very well done. I love the facial expression and the skin texture is wonderful! The hair (facial and head) are very well done....they look very real. A very touching characterization. Using the background to capture the "memory" is very effective....good lighting as well. Excelletn

Wow,what an outstanding job!!!I cant believe it is a Mike,impressive work!
So much has been said. All I can add is this is a true masterpiece full of beauty and meaning. Wonderful!!
I can feel the old veteran's pain, his traumatic memories!! Most excellent, and as always, you tell a story that draws the viewer straight into the screen, into your world, Shadow. :-) Rosy
The planes in the background dont like half as fine as the man in front. But its was worth the time.
You managed to do what few achieve - your lieutenant emanates feelings; true, human feelings. I think it's the highest level of mastery - breathing actual life into an image!
A beautiful, moving expression on the character. An amazing work.
This is absolutely exciting, well done and different, the message is important and well communicated, it is stupendous !!!!!! bye Debby :-D
I am sorry to have missed the chance to add anything further than has been said above needless to say you bring your great talent on another medium! Quite outstanding..

Absolutely beautiful and touching -- and exactly the sort of thing I want to wave at people who say "I hate Poser." You deserve a lot more exposure.
