♥ PosetteForever ♥

From time to time I take a look at myself, and my creations. <br /> I guess that I like to be sure that I have not wandered too far from the path that I have chosen. <br /> <br /> Recent observations include: <br /> <br /> 1.) I have noticed how much Women, and motor vehicles {...mainly automobiles...} inspire me. <br /> <br /> 2.) I have also noticed how much the years of work in TV, and recording studios, and concert halls has effected my preferred lighting style. I wonder, if this also explains my tendency to use Black, and Gold as my primary colors? <br /> <br /> 3.) It seems that I could be discribed as a "Digital Found Object Artist"; because of my tendency to use lots of "freebies" in my Poser renders. <br /> <br /> Hmmm... <br /> I think what made me post this here at Posette Forever was that I had to focus very hard to create an image/render that contained a "Posette-based" character; but did not contain a car. <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Now this is in no way meant to be a complaint, just an observation; and since I've always loved car designs {I have over 100 "Hot Wheels-sized cars" on my studio walls.}, and I am truly satisfied with my "studio-based works", and I've always believed that "Inspiration Is Wherever One Finds It"; I guess that I have not strayed off the "path". <br /> <br /> <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/happy8.gif" alt="" /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Thanks for letting me rant. <br /> <br /> Peace & Power 2U <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/happy8.gif" alt="" />

Allways interesting, when someone lets you have a look into his mind... <br /> Thanks <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/lol.gif" alt="" />

Thanks for the insite. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" />

Use a Vespa instead <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/lol.gif" alt="" /> ! We've one in our garage <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_whistle.gif" alt="" /> and Posettes like it a lot <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/heartbeat.gif" alt="" />

This is really interesting Whazizname! <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/wink.gif" alt="" /> You have worked in the Tv? That's just cool. <br /> As for me : <br /> 1)Had noticed that I mainly use 1 or 2 figures in a pic , no mass scenes , this is not good. <br /> 2) Less rendering , more postwork. I mean I'm not so interested in the free clothing items any more cause I know I can paint clothes to my models , same for the hair. <br /> 3) Too much violence , too much blood , too much self-inflicted violence , too much blood , not so much nudity but too much blood. <br /> 4) I'm trying more and more to make the props myself. <br /> I guess that's all.

I think that there is a gas station or part of it for free somewhere, I should have it in my collection <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_think.gif" alt="" /> . I'll investigate...

I've seen some old gas pumps around somewhere, also. If I remember correctly they are in 3DS format. I'll take a look, also. I may have d/l one for a future idea.

<img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_think.gif" alt="" /> Interesting topic. <br /> I have noticed that i: <br /> 1. Do too much faeries/fantasy <br /> 2. Do most images with males, but posts the renders i do with females. (i think i can't get the male poses right) <br /> 3. Uses basically the same (free)props over and over......and over. <br /> 4. Mostly one figure in the pic,rarely more - but it has happened. <br /> <br /> Interestingly i prefer to look at images without ppl in them, or only see ppl from a distant, like a village scene were ppl aren't the focus of the image. So it's interesting that i myself do the oposite.

Well I would like to through a wrench in the machine as well. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_shifty.gif" alt="" /> <br /> But with a reason. <br /> 1. I like SciFi be cause there are no rules. You just imagine. <br /> 2. I put my characters sometimes in the background to go with what I build because there is really no such thing as a perfect eyeball shot. Me being a photogarpher among other things knows this. Plus you work hard on a background to make that one Posette stand with it. <br /> 3. I am trying to get a point of what I build. Such as Scifi it is a part of me. I look toward the future in hopes to build a better past. (Think deep about what I just said here. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/wink.gif" alt="" /> ) <br /> 4. You can say look what I did, but remember it is like buying real clothes. Somebody had to make them. <br /> 5. If you look at your old art, don't look down on them. Just think of it as good art in it's day. Even pro artist get better with time. It is human nature. <br /> 6. There is not a single one here that is on the same topic of art really. Everyone has their own theme going. Change is good sometimes to avoid burn out but it always comes back for a fresh way of looking at things. <br /> 7. Anyone knows from experiance with Poser that it is limited. It was ment for Photographers to look at a pose to show there models before shooting the seen. If you have to go to another modeler to build or another painter program then you are being you and becomeing more complexed with your ideas and art. I always want to build what the other guy doesn't have. This is what gets the market community all up in arms is some one like me comes along and doesn't send a dime on them. If you are going into something as far as getting your art noticed the less you have on legal rights the better you are. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/thumb.gif" alt="" /> <br /> 8. I am to hard on myself. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/rolleyes.gif" alt="" /> This is the killer of all artist. Let the person looking at your art be the judge. I enjoy what I do. I may never get out there as a (Real) artist but I sure had fun along the way. I will always feel what I believe in is what I do. Some people find Poser as the challange of the software. An artist goes outside the box and creates. Thats what I love and it is what I do. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/eusa_dance.gif" alt="" /> I hope that you all are not to hard on yourself as I have looked back on your work you all have been great artists. It's just your ideas are changing. That is a good thing. Never burn out. <img src="https://www.posetteforever.com/images/smiles/smile.gif" alt="" />

I am capabale of self-development. That's one way to put it. Who, specifically? FiveHalf a dozen. Where did it go? For real. Spare some change? This can not happen because I am immortal.
