"Nightmares Prevail"
Software used: Vue Infinite 6, Poser Pro, Photoshop CS3
"Transcending from weary to numb, thy lurid desires rain like splinters impaling the mind and evading all space and time. The shroud of thoughts benign embrace the fragile mind, through flares of bloody gale these nightmares shall prevail." - MythArcana
The Devil made me do it! Not only once, but twice I created this scene because I made some major changes after I had finished it the first time and completely redid everything by changing the design. It might not appear to be at first glance, but this was a lot of work to put together and I tried quite a few tricks to make it pop off the screen. I wanted to try something different and fuse fantasy, fetish, and horror together to see what my imagination could come up with and I arrived at what you see here.
I experimented with hundreds of tweaks and ideas over the past week and I have come to the point of no return and Iām not messing with it any longer! If you like this, please show your support as I highly appreciate it! I will be returning to my full scenes as I have a lot to upload yet, so stay tuned for MOAR in the near future!

Lol, comic con man, I bet it's gonna be off da hook, wish I could go but I will be in washington (state) at that time (darn). Yeah she came out cool, wouldn't mess with her though! Be back in an hour!

Well, I'm completely broke (go figure) and I'm not doing much shopping at the show, but at least I got one day out of the deal. It might be just all I need cause I'm not huge on long lines and big crowds stuffed in buildings. It will be fun I'm sure!

Make sure you grab all the freebies dude, i do that when I'm broke at any con. I always get there early to avoid the stinking huge lines

I hear lots of booths give stuff away...and they did that at SIGGRAPH, too...but it was all spam and junk mostly. I want good stuff if I have to tote it around for 8 hours.

What kind of stuff do they give out exactly!? I know Armando was talking about giving stuff away...not sure what they are talking about but sure sounds great!

comic books, t-shirts, small toys, buttons, children (just kidding about the kids,lol)

Children!? Hey, hey, hey, hey now!! Don't be scaring me like that! LOL! I'm just hoping a super heroine will grab me after the show and show me some of those neat super powers in private! One never knows! I still don't have a decent camera to bring and apparently mom doesn't trust me enough with hers. I'll have to pick one up cheap at the discount store I guess. 8 MP should be good enough for that. I'll just take hi res shots and scale them down when I get back...stuff that baby full of mem cards for the win. Hehehe!

Lol, super spandex power activate! Oh yeah, can't wait to see them bro!!

LOL! You certainly have a way with words there! I suppose I could take a lesson or two and pipe down a bit cause I realize that I do talk too much most of the time! Hehehe! It probably stems down to my complete isolation, but I prefer things that way. Thanks so much for the

Well, we could always chat about rugby again but I don't know the rules! I'm not even sure if there are any rules to be honest! The last pro rugby game I saw, there were dead players on the field and they still kept on playing!! Now that is determination and dedication and team effort!!!

I love the patent leather effect and I adore the tail.
I hate to admit but this is so beautiful and you are a little crazy. What kind of an imagination you have?

Hahaha! Well, that is quite a mix of words there! Charming, crazy, beautiful...yup, that's me alright! LOL! I don't know where I come up with this stuff really...I guess I'm just bored of the same old thing and I want to get a reaction from people or something. I suppose I could get more wild, but then I might have to check the mature flag and this is pushing it as it is! Thanks so much for the nice comment and the

Oh, How I missed this!??!!
I closed my pc a little early I suppose! Yesterday I banged my knee very badly ( I had a little egg on it now) and my brain had also banged because of the pain)
Anyway, I wanted talk about your wonderful girl! She is so charming, dark, scary and beautiful. When I was first I felt breathless. You are a little crazy beacuse you have an unbelieveable imagination and very talented. If anyone has these values together, he must be a little (maybe more
I am affraid of seeing your first painting.

Oh noes! 
Well, I think you are right and I am a little crazy or else I would be an account or a lawyer or something and making big money!! LOL! I guess you could say it's like lot playing Dr. Frankenstein trying to put lots of different parts and things together to make them work or not. It's kind of fun and a little irritating at times, but I work on it until I get it right.
Yes, my paintings are very scary!! It's not because of the subjects, but because I'm just not very good! LOL! Thanks so much for your wonderful comment and kind words and I hope you are doing better in the next couple of days!

I hope to give you inspiration for your next work. A woman with egg bumps on her knees
It is good to have a friend who is so talented like you

the diffrent textures look awesome. I really do love these new renders of yours
š: 0 ā©: 1
All the materials are custom procedurals and I like the look much better than standard texture maps...plus it saves memory, too! I'm still not really huge into portraits and I prefer my big scenes, but I enjoy working on the characters quite a bit. This is still just V3 cause the outfit I used just wouldn't convert to V4 with all the morphs it required. I do have a newer V4 portrait that is done, but it's kind of...Umm....not my style. Hehe!
š: 0 ā©: 1
wow V3...great. I wonder what your next one will be like then

strong piece.
reminds me about the last movie i saw, x-men origins Wolverine, because of the claws xD
keep it m8

It's quite a departure for me, but it's still kind of in the same vein and style really. I prefer full scenes as opposed to these portrait thingies, but it does focus on the character more and that's what I wanted! Yes, the claws...and that was one main reason I ended up doing this thing twice! Thanks so much for the comment and the visit!

Awww, snap. Now I would have had so much time to get the first comment, but I missed it nevertheless. ^^
May I ask what you were using Vue for in this piece? :o

Well, there isn't exactly a rush or a line to see this today! I checked the front page when I posted this and there was about 53k people online and nobody over here, so there is plenty of standing room! Hehehe! The entire setting is Vue and that was the easiest part...that program is great and doesn't fight me like Poser does! Thanks for the comment and the visit!

Oh, I have to thank you for showing - it's a great piece, after all.
I just wasn't familiar to Vue being used as a regular renderer. Also - where can you see how many people are online currently? I never see such a number. :o

Ohhhhhhh, well thanks again, I am happy with your nice words! You can visit the Front Page here [link] You can also put the Today link on your menu where the DA logo is located. You can customize that entire menu row, it's quite cool!

Ohhh, I am such an idiot. XD
It's because my main dA-page is the channels-view; an old habit as this was what the previous dA-version had as front page. Thank you.

You are quite welcome and I hope you get things straightened out over there! hehehe!

Hey!! Wow! I thought this got lost in space as I posted this 30 minutes ago and nobody came by yet! I really try my best and worked on this one longer than I care to admit! It's strange, odd, weird, and different, but somehow it fits my bizarre personality. Hehe! Thanks so much for the comment and the

She is really spooky, isnt she - she would frighten me for sure! But I could see such a lot of work went into it x
š: 0 ā©: 1
Nothing really frightens me anymore! hehehe! I think I have seen and done too much cause when I watch horror movies I just end up laughing through most of it!
š: 0 ā©: 1
I cant watch horror movies - the last one I saw was Silence of the Lambs and I nearly wet myself!!!! I cant do with things like that - it was really awful! LOL x

LOL! You are so funny! My life is a horror story so I'm quite hardened to it I suppose!

Aw well I hope the good times are happening for you now, love - you deserve it x
