<DIV>Those pictures are astounding!  Very nice work.  My favorite one is "Tunare's Alcove"!   It's so ghostly and the lighting is just perfect.</DIV> <DIV>Thanks for posting these!</DIV>

<FONT color=#0066cc>NICE!!</FONT>

[niko_teen]

Very nice you certainly have a gift<div></div>

[Iari111]

<DIV>Wow, those are amazing! <img src="/smilies/283a16da79f3aa23fe1025c96295f04f.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>I love them all but if I had to choose my favorite would be the monk :p</DIV> <DIV> </DIV> <DIV>Nice work!</DIV>

[ximo]

Fantastic - I love them all!

[Quda]

<P>Very nicely done.</P> <P>I do have a couple of questions, one of which is very vague.  How?  I couldn't draw a stick, and I understand there has to be talent, but I am curious about what program and if you use a mouse to draw these, or a pad.</P> <P>Second question, where did you come up with the idea for the horse?  I seen a similar design in another thread.</P>

[Scottishla]

<P>First of all, I can't draw a stick either <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />  I am a terrible artist, though I am learning a little bit more here and there.  I did draw the hair on a couple of those images, as well as some of the effects.  The portrait of Pharteen has a lot of Photoshop postwork in it.  I use a combination of several programs.  I use <A href="http://www.daz3d.com/" target=_blank>Daz Studio</A>, which a free 3d program (bear in mind, the program is free and a few of the models, but I have a small fortune invested in content).  But sometimes I can't get what I want from Daz Studio and use Poser 6 (almost all Poser and Daz models are interchangeable between the two programs).  I do all of my post work in Photoshop CS2.  </P> <P>I do it as a hobby.  I found a link to Daz one day and thought I'd give it a try and I was hooked.  It's a lot of fun.  The only things I can't do right now are Ratonga, Iksar and Kerra.  Iksar and Kerra is just a matter of purchasing similar models, but I've never been asked to make one, so I can't warrant the purchase.  And I have yet to see a good "rat man" model.  Thus, like I said, I am not an artist and would never be able to simply draw those characters.</P> <P>Aside from programs, when I find I do need to draw something, I use a Wacom tablet. </P> <P>EDIT: oops forgot about your question about the horse.  The horse is a popular model for poser and D|S, as well as the texture packs to give it different colors.  The armor the horse is wearing is also a popular model and some of the best horse armor I've seen for Poser or D|S.  So, that's probably why you've seen it on other threads.  It's very popular.  I love Akyashaa's images.  That's probably where you saw the horse.  I've seen several elements in her images that are models I also have.  It's just a matter of the time and ptience to manipulate them into what you want.  Like her, I am a stay-at-home wife...So, I have several hours everyday to play around with them.</P><p>Message Edited by Scottishlass on <span class=date_text>01-29-2007</span> <span class=time_text>01:50 PM</span>

BTW I shot you an in-forum email

[Scottishla]

Got it and replied <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

[woodelfmast]

Awesome work!

[valkry]

You work is gorgeous! I really love the warrior queen pic. <still tweeked that barbs can't even buy a 'fun' kilt or torque in EQ2. I use to love watching the barb boys walking by showing of their legs.>

[woodelfmast]

Hiya again! I've started using DAZ after I saw your work, but I have a few questions...

[SapphireSnip]

Amazing work <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

[Scottishla]

Thank you.  I have recently updated it.

[initoci]

The Arasai Necromancer is by far the best.

[Scottishla]

Thanks...wasn't sure I was happy with it.

[Image_Vain]

"<span style="color: #cc0000">WOW</span>" I'm very impressed, SOE could learn from this (Armor and stuff) very nice work, well done.

[Scottishla]

Aye...Figured if I wanted sexy ladies, I had to make them myself <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

[Polywogus]

Terrific work, more more <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

[Scottishla]

LOL thanks!  When I have the time, I tend to crank a lot of them.  So, I'm sure there will be more soon <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

[Phylok]

Wow, this is fantastic work!

[Scottishla]

<p>Thank you <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" /></p><p> Real life has intruded the past couple of months and I can't work on these as much as I'd like.  However, I do have a couple more in the works and will be posting them here when they are finished.</p>

[miliskel]

after seeing them i have decided to download daz <img src="/smilies/69934afc394145350659cd7add244ca9.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />

[TeikoS]

I recently downloaded Daz, and I came back to this game on the same day. I must say, these pictures have made me even more excited for what I can do with Daz as I learn more and more. Right now I only have very basic things like <a href="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v60/Roukan/Sigs/DragonFight.jpg" rel="nofollow" target="_blank">this</a>.=] Very nice work.

[Scottishla]

<p>That is a great start!  You can learn a lot of things by browsing the Daz Tutorials and the Renderosity turtorials.  </p><p>In the meantime, I did find time to complete a couple more images, which I added to the beginning of this thread <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />  </p>

[Gillivray]

I like the assassin!  Nice job <img src="/smilies/3b63d1616c5dfcf29f8a7a031aaa7cad.gif" border="0" alt="SMILEY" />
