Title: Firelight
Fandom: Fear Mythos
Characters: Burning Bride
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: She's wearing a dress made of fire.
Notes: So, first I got distracted because baked goods. Then I got deathly ill. Then I got distracted by this other project that was supposed to be stupidly easy, that just exploded into hell, because trees. I hate trees. Yes. All this in three days. Anyway, I promised you a Burning Bride, and here's the first test shot.

Title: A Laughing Matter
Fandom: Fear Mythos
Characters: Mother of Snakes 
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Anthro serpent, with gorgon hair, posing with a giant python. Don't click through if snakes scare the piss out of you.Notes: I think I might like this dress better, but it hasn't got the cloth weight of the other one… So conflicted… No post work. Can't be arsed, today. Going to try the Burning Bride, next.

Title: Glorious, Endless Desolation
Fandom: Fear Mythos
Characters: Mother of Snakes
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Anthro serpent, with gorgon hair, posing with a giant python. Don't click through if snakes scare the piss out of you.
Notes: So, I'm trying to get a Mother of Snakes with less skimpy clothing that doesn't sacrifice the texture of her skin. This is the entire Medusa outfit, which I don't think I'll be using on her, again, if only because the sliders on the corset and the circlet don't actually work. I'll probably go with some pieces of Kassandra, next time. Also, finally got a desert set to use for the Garden of Desolation that doesn't make me gag, even if I did have to do horrible things to some totally unrelated terrain to make it work.

Title: Is It Me You Fear or You?
Fandom: Fear Mythos
Characters: Mother of Snakes
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Anthro serpent, with gorgon hair, in skimpy clothes. Don't click through if snakes scare the piss out of you.
Notes: Ehh, I really just wanted to mess with her outfit, after the last one. Hair and gloves are from Medusa for V4, legs are Cilea for V4, snake is Serpentine for A3, the bodysuit is the V4 unimesh bodysuit, and I forget where the sandals are from… Eventually, I'll find a desert background that I don't feel the need to block out most of with other props.

Title: Dancing on the Bones of Her Enemies
Fandom:Winter
Characters: Murphy
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Bones, no blood, no violence.
Notes: I love this skirt. Well, no. I hate the skirt, itself, because I loathe working with skirts that aren't dynamic, but it's got fantastic textures. I mean, look at that! I shot it sort of small, because that mail shirt is glitchy as hell at higher resolutions. Also, very dark. Much better looking on an LCD screen.

Title:  Transitions B4: Outside the Museum
Fandom:  Yu-Gi-Oh, Lost Souls
Characters: Amelda, Bakura, Molochai, Twig
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Shirtless anime dudes, in skirt-like things and big, iron shackles.
Notes: Like I said, I'm doing these in reverse order, just to shoot something other than that pit dungeon, for a couple images. I'm decently pleased with how this came out, in the end, and it was much less difficult than I was expecting. This series fits between the pit dungeon scenes and the museum scenes.

Title: Test: City Street with 1950s Limo
Fandom:  Yu-Gi-Oh, Lost Souls
Characters: Amelda, Bakura, Molochai, Twig
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Anime boys in skimpy clothes, kneeling in the road
Notes: I've been working on the set for 3 & 4 in Series B. I think I'll be doing this set in reverse order, just to keep things interesting. y!GallerySargantas wanted a limousine in these shots, but the only limo I could lay hands to was this 1936 model, which is pretty posh, if a little anachronistic. (I have been corrected. It is a 1959 model, and there is some debate about whether it is a limo, since the model maker identifies it as one. It's definitely not stretch.) Retextured most of it with some awesome car paint shaders I had laying around. I probably need to re-do the interior, as well, before I do #3. I'm debating whether the scene is too light, but I've recently got some crit that I shoot too dark for print, so I might just keep these light, for now. It looks like I can shoot two figures at a time, on this set, before things start exploding, which is good to know before I start building a scene. *laughs* Also, Cilea for V4 converts really well to M4/H4 as demonstrated by the kneeling pair. I probably want to re-texture the metal parts, so they don't glow in the dark, but it looks pretty good, aside from that.

Title: Sibling Rivalry
Fandom: Winter
Characters: Murphy, Maitiu
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: A dude in a greatkilt.
Notes: Actually, I'm lying through my teeth. That's not a greatkilt, it's a dirty hackjob. Doesn't look too horrible, even if it is the wrong cloth weight and it doesn't drape quite right… Also, her teeth are too bright and his hair is a little plasticky. Murphy and Maitiu are a pair of Sidhe warriors, sister and brother. She likes night raids, and he loves setting towns on fire. Recently, she's gotten much more practical and solution-oriented, and he's gotten a whole lot whinier.

Title: More Like Him Every Day
Fandom: Potterverse
Characters: Lucius Malfoy, Orion Lestrange (OC), Finnegan O'Ruadhain (OC)
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D1)
Warnings: Finney's not wearing a shirt, there's some drinking of beer.
Notes: A birthday present for ospreybagman, over on LJ. Orion Lestrange (OC son of Rodolphus and Bellatrix) hanging out in a bar with his … sort of uncles, Lucius Malfoy and Finnegan O'Ruadhain (OC cousin of Rodolphus). I suspect you might have to be familiar with the AU we played in, for any of this to make sense.

Title: Test: Sullivan
Fandom: Winter
Characters: Sullivan O'Ruadhain
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: A dude in a loincloth with a pike.
Notes: So, I just spent thirteen hours working on Sullivan. He's supposed to have some really gorgeous scarring on his chest, but the damned displacement maps won't play nice, so I'm probably just going to leave that be, for now. I managed to get the ones on his face working, at least. Depending on what angle I render him from, he looks like about five people I know, and none of that was intentional.
