Bodaciea's EQ2 3d Images UPDATED Feb26, 2008

Scottishla · 01-29-2007, 09:14 PM

I thought I'd share some of my 3d renders of my (and hubby and friends) EQ2 characters.

**NEW** Unlikely Pair - My main Barbarian Pally & Hubby's main Gnome Fury

**NEW** Unrestful Places - A dark elf wizard discovers Unrest

**NEW** She Works Alone- Assassin Image

**NEW** Cylently Screaming - Hubby's Dark Elf Assassin

Ceridwen - My Arasai Necromancer

Fyrenight - My Arasai Bruiser

Gaelica Celticsong - My High Elf TroubadorYeena- Half Elf RangerAloska- Wood Elf BardRose - Half Elf DruidWhen Darkness Rides - Dark Elf Shadow KnightMenx - Daughter's main, Kerra ConjurorLoque O'Scotland- Hubby's main, Gnome FuryBodaciea Iceni- My main, Barbarian PaladinPhiona MacRae- My High Elf MysticHiddin Draggon- My Wood Elf MonkSyrenn S`Crye- My Dark Elf IllusionistCarling McRee- My Dark Elf FuryMysd E`Meanor- My Fae WardenGillivray MacRae- Hubby's Barbarian GuardianPharteen - Hubby's Dark Elf NecroCypher- Hubby's Erudite TemplarMalichae- Guildmate's fae SwashbucklerThese images are scenes inspired by EQ2.

Searching for Everling This would be hubby & I's Gillivray & Phiona characters in Nek Castle!

I'll be adding more as I do them.

Those pictures are astounding! Very nice work. My favorite one is "Tunare's Alcove"! It's so ghostly and the lighting is just perfect.

Thanks for posting these!

NICE!!

niko_teen · 01-29-2007, 10:27 PM

Very nice you certainly have a gift

Iari111 · 01-29-2007, 11:21 PM

Wow, those are amazing! SMILEY

I love them all but if I had to choose my favorite would be the monk :p

Nice work!

ximo · 01-30-2007, 12:29 AM

Fantastic - I love them all!

Quda · 01-30-2007, 02:03 AM

Very nicely done.

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.

Second question, where did you come up with the idea for the horse? I seen a similar design in another thread.

Scottishla · 01-30-2007, 02:46 AM

First of all, I can't draw a stick either 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 Daz Studio, 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.

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.

Aside from programs, when I find I do need to draw something, I use a Wacom tablet.

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.

woodelfmast · 03-03-2007, 09:27 PM

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

SapphireSnip · 03-04-2007, 09:10 AM

Amazing work SMILEY

Scottishla · 05-29-2007, 01:54 PM

Thank you. I have recently updated it.

initoci · 05-29-2007, 02:56 PM

The Arasai Necromancer is by far the best.

Scottishla · 05-29-2007, 04:48 PM

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

Image_Vain · 05-29-2007, 10:15 PM

"WOW" I'm very impressed, SOE could learn from this (Armor and stuff) very nice work, well done.

Scottishla · 05-29-2007, 10:44 PM

Aye...Figured if I wanted sexy ladies, I had to make them myself SMILEY

Polywogus · 05-30-2007, 02:06 PM

Terrific work, more more SMILEY

Scottishla · 05-30-2007, 02:30 PM

LOL thanks! When I have the time, I tend to crank a lot of them. So, I'm sure there will be more soon SMILEY

Phylok · 05-30-2007, 04:56 PM

Wow, this is fantastic work!

Scottishla · 09-08-2007, 10:01 AM

Thank you SMILEY

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.

miliskel · 09-08-2007, 02:20 PM

after seeing them i have decided to download daz SMILEY

TeikoS · 09-15-2007, 12:22 AM

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 this.=] Very nice work.

Scottishla · 10-28-2007, 11:44 AM

That is a great start! You can learn a lot of things by browsing the Daz Tutorials and the Renderosity turtorials.

In the meantime, I did find time to complete a couple more images, which I added to the beginning of this thread SMILEY

Gillivray · 01-31-2008, 01:32 PM

I like the assassin! Nice job SMILEY
