Title: Gaslight, Motherfucker! Do You Speak It?
Fandom: Magelight Chronicles
Characters: None
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: None
Notes: It's just a bar. Nobody's in it, or anything, but I built it out of spare parts from probably a dozen other things. Yes, the candles suck. Candles usually suck, until I fake them in post. The lighting, however, does not suck… Yet. And yes, something about irony. Title of this post and the fact I'm using candles has not escaped me. I haven't figured out how to drop the candles and edit for gas, because that involves some significant fuckery, for which I am presently too lazy. I'm shocked this place even renders at all. If it renders with people -in- it, without crashing? I'll be actually impressed. Note that this is only the left third of the bar, and not all of even that.

I got less lazy. Second image is gaslight. Quality is debatable, but I still managed it.

Title: Calendar Preview and August
Fandom: Magelight Chronicles
Characters: Dark, Jack Ass, Genie, Yaz, Bitty, Gwydion, Ice
Rating: G- (L1 N0 S0 V0)
Warnings: None
Notes: February, April, July, and August are done. I'm working on what I think is October, now. You've seen those images, before, but I shot them at the wrong size and with crap lights, the first time. This set is four calendar page previews and the images for August.

Title: Image Dump
Fandom: Magelight; N/A
Characters: Mocker, Genie; Yaz; Jerrett
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Anthro weasel in a kilt.
Notes: This is everything I did today. Mostly just pissing around to see what's still broken, and fixing the last of it, before I have to go in and rebuild some stuff I made from prims. Three images.

Title: You Don't Want to Do That (almost right)
Fandom: Magelight Chronicles
Characters: Ice
Rating:G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: None
Notes: So, I liked this image, but I loathed the way I couldn't get it to light cleanly. Then I turned on raytracing. Seventeen lights with raytracing on? Half an hour at 800×800.When I figure out what size this is supposed to be, I need to shoot it again, in the last two versions below, so I can mix and match some bits of light and shadow.

Title: Sainted
Fandom: Viridian Legacy: Glass
Characters: Arkady
Rating: G- (L1 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Blasphemy? Me? … Probably.
Notes: So, like … last year, this time, I was screwing around with some new toys, and I couldn't manage a version of this image that I liked, and mum wanted it on a t-shirt, anyway, blah blah, long story short, I swapped out some textures and it rendered like a dream.

Title: Frosted Falls
Fandom: Magelight Chronicles
Characters: Frost
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: That's not a mini, it's a belt.
Notes: So, all of my save files are shot, until I can recreate the object data for them. What's this mean, practically? Well, I have to load and re-save about thirty thousand files, until I can successfully get the objects to load into the saved files like they're supposed to. In the mean time, you get to watch me piss around with stuff I didn't even know I had, because I probably have to save it out anyway. Also? New computer is fucking awesome. Rendered this in about 15 minutes, with raytracing on. That would have been a two or three hour render, before. OMG, decent lighting, here I come. Also, dear self? Don't shoot at an angle where the shadow is visible on the fog plane. Not cool.

Title: November and March
Fandom: Magelight Chronicles
Characters: Dark, Ice, Frost
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D1)
Warnings: Smokin' fag smoking a fag. Frost looks way too good in that mini.
Notes: I'm trying to re-frame some old stuff as potential calendar pieces. Alleycats and Morning After, so far. Alleycats as a full-page and Morning After as a 2/3. No post on either of these, yet. Yes, Ice's hair is totally screwed up. Yes, I have a way to fix that in post.

Title: Solange and Verrier
Fandom: Magelight Chronicles
Characters: Solange, Verrier
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Poorly-rendered demons.
Notes: They're minor characters, just a few mentions sprinkled through the story of the parentage of the villains. Solange is their half-demon mother.

Title: Cat People
Fandom: N/A
Characters: Unnamed and Suat Yildiz
Rating: M (L0 N3 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Naked anthro leopard.
Notes: I finally got a copy of 'Cat World', which is … less pleasing than I'd hoped. The textures are mostly passable, but the head morph is hideous. I can do better with the Creature Creator morphs, as is proven in the two images below. Suat is a commission for a player on F-List. The caracal skin is based off the lion skin.

Title: Triptych – Ice
Fandom: Magelight Chronicles
Characters: Emoric, Ice, Margery
Rating: G- (L1 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: None
Notes: I'm really not sure about how Emoric came out. I'm thinking there's still something subtly wrong in the angles, there. Margery may also need stays, if I can find something suitable. But, here you go. Ice and his dead loves.
