Title: Centaur Archer
Fandom: N/A
Characters: some centaur dude
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: A centaur with a bow. If either of these is an offensive idea, you're so in the wrong place.
Notes: Totally screwing around. The new centaur thread just went up on the DAZ forums, and there were no images, yet. Now, there's an image. Woo.

Title: Son of a Lord
Fandom: (That picturebook…)
Characters: F-listMalachai Schade, his dad
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: None
Notes: I've been screwing with this for a month. It still bugs the crap out of me, but a little less so, now. I'm taking suggestions on what's wrong with it, because it's gotten to where I really can't tell, but I know it's not right.

Title: Experiments in Dragon – 03&04
Fandom: N/A
Characters: some kid, some dragon
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: None
Notes: Finished building the wing templates, so now the wings *gasp* match the rest of the dragon! Also, yay for make pattern in Photoshop. pattern-filling scales is so much easier than trying to paste things so they line up.

Title: Experiments in Dragon – 01&02
Fandom: N/A
Characters: some kid, some dragon
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: None
Notes: I've done… pretty much no work with dragons, but I have heard that there may be someone interested in getting me to do some work involving a dragon, so I figured I should see what I can do, and get the texture templates sorted out and all. These first ones are using a pair of platemail shaders, wings from DragonBreath's dragonhearts textures, and Gemologica on the horns and claws. The only texture template I've successfully sectioned, so far, is the eye texture, so those blue eyes are all mine, not that you can really make them out, at this size.

Title: Don't Mess With Spyke
Fandom: N/A
Characters: y!GallerySpykeTyranno, an anthro goat dude
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V1 D0)
Warnings: Goat-dude has been punched out.
Notes: Commission for OfflineSpykeTyranno. The request was for an urban fight scene, and here's our man flattening some … goat dude? I'm not really sure. I'm sticking with 'goat' and 'artistic liberties' on that one. Unfortunately, all attempts to render this image larger than 1800×1800 resulted in the program imploding with no error, so that's as big as it gets.

Title: I Got You a Thing!
Fandom: N/A
Characters: A centaur and a chakat
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: There are no clothes, but they're covered in fur. I think that counts.
Notes: I picked up the freebie kits for the M4/MilHorse centaur and the V4/MilBigCat felitaur. Takes a little getting used to the posing, but they work great. I will point out that changing the human figure's hips, or moving the hips, or moving the animal figure's 'Neck2' node will break shit, so if you've got pokethrough and weird intersections, that is the problem. Go poke it with a stick. Also, human figures are parented to 'Neck1', so any pose that moves the neck on the animal figure will have weird-shit results, and will probably need to be tweaked. But, really, they look great... Except for the horse's legs, which is totally a texture problem with the horse. GLOSSY LEGS? REALLY? Tch.

Title:  Drow Hunter
Fandom: D&D
Characters: some drow dude
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings:  Shirtless dude.
Notes: This is really just me screwing around with UberSurface. While I was looking for help with something I actually meant to be doing today, I tripped over some handy tips for making drow skin look less shitty, so I took a break and tried them out. This is like two hours of screwing around, and I'm not entirely displeased with it. I suspect I'd turn up the spec glossiness, in the future.

Title: The Sins of Ill-Tempered Love
Fandom: N/A
Characters: Unnamed
Rating:
Warnings: Angst, expletives
Notes: Those who can identify the roots from which this tale has sprung are cordially invited to shut the fuck up and keep it to themselves. Those roots are not a matter for public conversation and no one will be pleased if they become one — least of all the first to speak. The tale is separated enough from those roots to be suitable for telling.
