Title: Advent Calendar 20: Christmas Pudding
Fandom: N/A
Characters: Damianos
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Chest hair?
Notes: I'm still wondering what other vampire can't be seen in the mirror. Damianos is definitely looking at his dinner companion, but there's no reflection there. I'm also wondering where he found a priest holy enough to properly bless that dinner, but also willing to do it in the middle of the night… Some things are better left unexplained.

Title: A Glass of Poison (Redux)
Fandom: Magelight
Characters: Noctis
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: None
Notes: So, I remembered staring at this image for days, at one point, and I couldn't figure out why the glass wasn't behaving like glass. Having since acquired a clue, I tried again, with much less shitty results.

Title: Kotetsu & Izumo (Test)
Fandom: Naruto
Characters: Hagane Kotetsu, Kamizuki Izumo
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Martial arts poses and a giant axe.
Notes: This is the first test for the commission I'm working on for Serani. Some clothing textures are missing, still, but since she's looking for more naked, I'm not really going to bother.

Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)

Notes: HAPPY slightly belated BIRTHDAY, FROST!

Verlucien and Frostburn at The Snowed Inn. You know Frost's just proposed one of those things that ends in 'That's a horrible idea! Let's do it!'

Title: Quiet
Fandom: Magelight
Characters: Yaz, Dark
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: None
Notes: I have no idea. This kind of sprung up out of a conversation I was having, and I couldn't drop it. I'm … sufficiently happy with it to stop screwing with it, for now, although I have a suspicion that's only going to last until I see it on an LCD display. I'm pretty sure there's a glitch that I can't see on this monitor, somewhere in all that black.

Title: Fall For Me
Fandom: N/A
Characters: Lux, Cuthbert
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Not a whole lot of skin. Fallen angel.
Notes: I need to do the postwork on this, but I'm not sitting in that chair until my back stops hurting. In the mean time, here's the two images I'm going to need to splice. I like Lux better in the first one and Cuthbert better in the second. It's the change from raytracing to mapped shadows that makes the difference. They probably look better on an LCD than a CRT. That's the (fallen) angel of truth and light tempting a warrior of the summer court. Post's done. It's much better.

[Master Post – Glass]
Title: A Walk in the Dark
Fandom: Viridian Legacy: Glass
Characters: Arkady, Severen
Rating: G- (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Two guys drinking beer.
Notes: I'm actually screwing around with the Human Surface Shader, some more. Lipstick is a real pain in the ass, I'm noticing. There's something vaguely wrong with the lights, here, but I can't quite put my finger on it.

Title: Catlike
Fandom: Magelight
Characters: Spook
Rating: G (L0 N0 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Do you own a cat? Nothing you haven't seen.
Notes: I can't make anything look right, today, so here's a cat licking its ass. No, I'm not kidding. Testing out a set of 'natural' cat poses that someone requested in the Freepozitory.

Title: Lords of Winter – Vergosus
Fandom: Magelight(-ish)
Characters: Vergosus
Rating: G- (L0 N1 S0 V0 D0)
Warnings: Shirtless faerie dude with a glaive.
Notes: The winter series is going poorly. It's difficult to get a bluish cast to the skin without it coming out full-on Andorian. And HSS/UbS is still a pain in my ass. I'm trying to get a grip on which parts affect exactly what colours in the final image. And the fact that very little changes in the preview screen doesn't help much. So, Vergosus looks a little low-contrast, here, and I'm not even in a position to discuss Drost, because I get one half-hour test render, and then the program closes itself. Something about the combination of lights and shaders just hates me, on that one. I'm about to just throw it out and start over, because TWO DAYS of either losing my work or having to recreate the original thing I changed, because I did save before it crashed, and what I saved was garbage… It's not making me happy.
