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:  In the Green Wood
Fandom: Magelight
Characters: Frostburn
Rating: G-
Warnings:  Remarkably suggestive…
Notes: I'm still mad about these boots, and the boots really do get more of the frame in this one. In fact, it came out so well on the first try (which never happens) that I just surrendered my good sense and made a pair of wallpapers 1280×1024 and 1600×900.

Title: Temptation
Fandom: Viridian Legacy/Magelight Chronicles
Characters: Frostburn, Arkady
Rating: G-
Warnings: Arkady's wearing a skirt.
Notes: I dunno… I just had this idea, then I wrote 'The Brighter the Glitter', then I had to get off my ass and do this, because it was bothering me that I hadn't. It's not great. The lighting is still pissing me off and Frost's hand isn't right, but I have to go make phone calls, now, so I need to stop pissing around with it.

Title: We Three Kings
Fandom: Magelight Chronicles
Characters: Dark, Frost, Ice
Rating: G-
Warnings: Lulzy interpretations of religious themes
Notes: So, I stared and stared at yesterday's post… and then it came to me. The reason I couldn't get Frost's hand where I wanted it? Was because it didn't go there. And then it all came together. This is actually probably going to be my Christmas card for next year, if I don't cut a better one, in the means.
