What is more wonderful; the beautiful and stunning Cassidy, or the dazzling, priceless ruby she grasps? I say sweet and talented Tamara for creating Cassidy and allowing me to have such a great time with her! I was so honored, touched, and privileged with this incredible gift from such a sweet and very talented artist whose work I admire so much! I saw all the fantastic Pin-Ups of Cassidy being posted, and decided I would indulge in that category as well, but somehow try to incorporate my fantasy style within the image. Thanks so much, Tamara, for your kindness and support to the community, as well as your engaging artistry which inspires me to keep pushing forward harder each time!
*~* Image Notes *~*
I just plain had fun with this scene; how many times you do hear me say that? LOL! Cassidy is such a joy to work with; her second skins are fabulous, her texture renders great no matter what kind of lighting you throw at her, and all the options are just so well done and very classy! Now If I just felt more comfortable with painting hair I would be alright! Additional tidbits; I used the Elvish font to inscribe the throne once again because I just love how that looks. The writing states, "This image is dedicated to Neomea -Tamara, Thank you so much!". *Hugz*

Beautiful scene! I also like the reds and the lighting is great :-) Excellent work!!!
I agree with you about Cassidy-she looks incredible and those body textures are a Godsend to "clothing challenged" guys like me!!! I think the black lace looks incredible, and it's perfect for the scene you created!!! The props look wonderful and I love the way you add the lettering-it really looks like it was rendered in the scene!!! EXCELLENT work!!!

Cassidy looks absolutely fantastic in this scene!!! She truly is a beautiful character, and an absolute joy to work with...You have done her up beautifully here, in your own amazing style that I have grown to love so much :-)
OUTSTANDING!!! The colours are drop-dead gorgeous and she is lovely. What a beautifully done image! Bravo!!!

A fascinating image, excellent pose and lighting. Love the rich colours - beautifully done!
She is such a Beautiful character!! I love the colors you used! Excellent composition!!
Beautiful character, and gorgeous work. Wonderful composition.
Beautiful scene - love all the gorgeous reds you used in this. Tamara's character is very lovely indeed :)
Dear David, This is truly awesome - I think it might be my favorite - it would defintely be my favorite if there was a blond involved!! ;-) But I have to admit that the red hair works better with everything. The sky background works so well at providing a base for the rest of the colors. The candles look real! And I love the roses - they add such a nice touch. Her "little lacies" and cloak are perfect for the scene. And I LOVE her self satified expression - with good reason - that's a lot of ruby!! It would warm most any girl's heart!! It's really better than Excellent!!!! Love, Meredith
Gosh, she just looks incredible here, David! This bodyglove is dazzling, and I love her pose & expression. You've done a wonderful job with the lighting and the scene setup, too. Terrific atmosphere and a lovely pinup image. Excellent work and a beautiful dedication to a really sweet lady!!
