Description
Bryce, Poser, Paint Shop Pro
After falling in love with a beautiful water-nymph, this man was killed in battle. But his love for her was so strong that his soul would not rest, and he was doomed to wander the Shadowlands forever...
Okay Meredith, I'm on my way to your happy ending! =P This guy is the mortal man that the water-nymph in my last pic was pining for.
BTW, what was DAZ thinking with Bryce 5.5?!?! Like I want to pay $70 to upgrade to a program that's essentially the same as what I've already got, just a little faster and with some improved import features that I don't need! They should offer the upgrade at something more like $10 or $20, since there are so few improvements, and sell the actual program for $100!
As always any comments and/or suggestions for improvement are much appreciated. Thanks for dropping by and have a great weekend!

An interesting image, but alas, the politics belong in the Forums? It's where we all go to practice typing, and accomplish little!
I Agree...with your complaint and would say that nonetheless, Bryce still packs respect in my world. I love your vision and the mist here is wicked! well done.
Wonderful atmosphere and lighting. Great render.
Dark and moody to suit your story - excellent job.
beautiful mythological story, and love the romantic elegant art work.. of this composition... superb...:0
After coupons and a $5 I managed to get 5.5 for $15... but yeah I agree with not wanting to shell out so much for what's been upgraded. Not dissing Daz though, companies have to make money somehow, and Bryce for 100 is a pretty good deal if you don't already have it. I like this image and the overall feel.
Aye, the Storm Dragon's probably right... "politics" as you so aptly put it are probably best left for the forums. Still I have an excuse, as I was up straight through the night working on this (I'm addicted! =P) until 5 a.m. when I posted this, saw the newsletter from DAZ and went to check prices... yeah. I'm not dissing DAZ either, they actually have a lot of really great deals, deals that really are great and not just designed to lure you in... but for the amount of new stuff you get in 5.5 it's just not worth it and I think they would make more money if they offered the upgrade cheaper. 100 bucks for Bryce is truly a great price if you don't already have it, actually I was quite happy when I decided to upgrade from 4 to 5. They should have upgraded more though if they want to charge that much, is my point.
Great image of my soul, Excellent! ~Uwe
Dear Robert, THANK YOU!! HAPPY ENDING ARE ALWAYS THE BEST!!! It's like when you read a review and the critics say, "Powerful Performance." Somebody's gonna die and everyone is gonna be bummed totally out and what the dickens am I shelling out money for a dose of depression! I'm so glad this isn't going to "Swan Lake" or "Lady of the Lake" or something. YEAH!!! Of course, Swan Lake is one of my most favorite ballet music pieces - and I love the ballet as long as I don't pay attention to the story. "Lake in the Moonlight" from Act II is as good as it gets!! I just had to click in on in the background! Hmmm - actually it fits really well with this image. Full of drama and passion and the dreamy feel is just perfect. Great effects with the fog - it's fantastic with the vegetation. The searching pose is wonderful too!! Excellent work!! And Thank you!! Love, Meredith
Wonderful scene! V
Fantastic work.
Excellent work !!! love the composition and the atmospheric feel to this - excellent ~V~
I really like this one. I love the way I did the lighting, and the fog really adds to the realism. Very nice. Light skills are just perfect. Very nice composition.
Yow! The story gets MORE tragic!! My dear boy, you will find a sweet-heart, and your outlook will change! ;)
