Title: Illusory Fluttering
Fandom: Magelight Chronicles
Characters: Mocker
Rating: G-
Warnings: None
Notes: So, my brain collapsed in on itself, late last night, and instead of sleeping, because I'm a bloody insomniac at the most inconvenient times, I did some more work on Mocker. I'm pretty happy with how he ended up. That cloak is actually made of two parasols from the Lady Bird outfit, a null, the V4 Morphing Cape, and the V4 Hooded Cloak.

Title: Test – Morningstar and Mocker
Fandom: Magelight Chronicles
Characters: Morningstar, Mocker
Rating: G-
Warnings:  Scary texture and reflection problems
Notes: I don't actually have all the parts I need to be even attempting these two, so Morny's missing his collar and Mocker's cloak is all screwed up. Also, I'm almost happy with Morningstar, but Mocker totally needs to a) quit being high-gloss and b) stop looking like some J-pop bishie. But, I crashed while saving twice, and I'm just tired of screwing with these two, tonight.

Title: The Perfect Future
Fandom: Magelight Chronicles
Characters: Icefeather, the Unspoken
Rating: T
Warnings: Talk about sex, slaughter, and slavery, none of it explicit.
Notes: I've not written anything in … weeks, at this point. Figured it was time to shake up and see what fell out. Morningstar's a grotesque creature with no remorse, but Icefeather likes him anyway. Unfortunately for them, not everything is as it seems.

Title: Chrome Cheesecake
Fandom: Magelight Chronicles
Characters: Frostburn
Rating: G-
Warnings:  I swear that's not a cheerleader outfit
Notes: I dunno. Totally just pissing around with some shaders. Apparently the trick to functional chrome is -not- to use the chrome shader, but to use the silver shader and switch it to metallic glossy — and why in the fuck my metals are all set to plastic glossy is just beyond me… *sighs* Blah blah, reflection mapping is still screwed up & so on & so forth… The point of all this is that I'm trying to figure out the shiny. Clearly, I'm not quite there. This post will get longer as I keep screwing with the settings…

Title: Frost Variations I
Fandom: Magelight Chronicles
Characters: Frostburn
Rating: G-
Warnings: Boring as hell
Notes: This is just a little screwing around I've been doing with Frost's face and some makeup resources I picked up. Setup was a bitch, and the psd is HUGE, but I can now do … pretty much anything, as soon as I figure out the pixelspacing for lip liner. SO MANY OPTIONS. SO MANY LAYERS. OMG.

Title: Shocking!
Fandom: Magelight (sort of…)
Characters: Shock
Rating: G
Warnings: None
Notes: So, dearest darling Darkling decided we needed another kitten. A little blue one that shot sparks. *grins* This is what I managed on that idea in … about an hour. No point light, oddly. That's all distants — and preload distants, at that. Didn't do anything to the lights but turn on the shadows. Should do a little post, because the cat bends funny, but I can't be arsed to crack Photoshop right now. I think 3 might actually be better than 4, the difference being shadowmap vs. raytrace.

Title: Lazy-ass Magelight Icons
Fandom: Magelight Chronicles
Characters: Darkling, Frostburn, Icefeather
Rating: T
Warnings: You can see a lot of skin in one of these
Notes: So, I bitch at myself every time I post to LJ without a proper Magelight icon. Decided I should get off my lazy. For the record, I hate #5, and I'll be redoing it when I can actually use Photoshop without crashing something.
