nfredman Bio

To those who have followed me in the past and were wondering where the heck I had gotten to--and even if you weren't wondering--all is explained easily.The book behind all the gallery images of Alex and his friends is now available!You can NOW get Sorrows' Master as a Kindle e-book from Amazon.com! And for only $0.99, too. It's long enough and filled with enough wacky stuff to really require a beach on which to read it. Y'all are going on vacation to the Caribbean in January, right? No? Heck, you'll have fun, anyhow.Want to hear more from the characters themselves? Slide on over to <a href="http://www.mage-net.com">Mage-Net</a>, in that case.My plan is to post to both the author blog and the in-character blog twice a week, with fun free stories and MORE Poser and Vue art. Don't worry, I'll be cross-posting the pictures here, too. A LOT of the images and characters I developed right here will take on new life, promise. ;)If you find you love the book, or even like it a little, please consider making a positive review on Amazon.com. It helps us indie authors tremendously.So, THANK YOU, Renderosity Gallery viewers! Being able to share my images and stories with you means a whole lot to me. Your company has helped a lot.--Nan (N.E. Fredman on Amazon.com)

Here on Renderosity, I focus on doing renders in Poser of my suite of characters written about in the Sorrows' Chronicles.
There's a nice dynamic tee shirt in my Rendo store here. :)
Please do download the wallpaper-sized versions of most of my images. You can get them at my web site's wallpaper page, and the Poser freebies are there, too. Enjoy! If you would like to see a lengthy demo of hair painting in Photoshop with a Wacom tablet, please go to my video tutorials page: http://www.cooltuna.com/poser/video-tutorials.html

Description


Not just NVIATWAS.

The image came to me like a Tarot card. It certainly seemed archetypal:

A woman stands in a structure of her making. It is beautiful because she cares about her creations. She has struggled, and bears the scars and wounds of her struggle. Her armor against the world is battered and imperfect; she is vulnerable, but unbowed.

She has contended not with a sword, to divide, but with her will, to create, symbolized by a staff. Behind her, Nature and the subconscious (river) provide the raw materials.

She has mastered the ravaging passions as symbolized by the dragon/serpent. They aren't gone, just controlled for the time being. They have rendered their wisdom, which is ancient, so that she may build with it. Today, she is in harmony with the serpent.

Pleased with her efforts, she pauses to evaluate them, passing the staff into her off hand.

Production notes: DM set with V4 and the DAZ serpent-dragon. MRL Astrid character ended up wearing the AlfaSeed Sisterhood skin and a nice skullcap. Her topknot isn't very visible against the dragon's wing, but it's there. The background is a separate image which I created and rendered in Vue 2014 Infinite. Postwork for frame etc. in Photoshop. Main render in Poser Pro 2014.

Nice work. I like the integration of the backdrop from Vue. Blended very well together.

Oh well done, Nan. Well kriffin done. That Vue work you did there really clinches the deal dragging you in that last step.
