Tiana, right: !
The hand closest to the viewer looks a bit large for my taste,
and dark-painted fingernails look like blood clots to me— yecch!
But in terms of wow-rad photorealism, and exotic feminine beauty,
it doesn’t get any better than this!
Is your background CG, too?

Thank you for the watch. If you're interested in more, check out my pin-up gallery. I show you some samples and a link

Yes; your caught my attention.
She displays what I consider a very seductive blend:
[“Super” in the sense of Tinbergen and Barrett ]
in her arms and thighs, respectively.
of her face and expression,
plus the very title of your image, and—
what a heart stealer! Eh, throb.

lol all her details and designs were my idea actually.

Makini90 asks me to ask you if you have a story idea
involving your classy lady, Noel.

well I do. what do you hae inm ind?

Who, me??
Well, on your gallery you have a number of boxing gals
(not necessarily my cup of tea),
whereas Makini90 displays some sweet anthros.
My 
but you don't have to write a story with beginning, middle, and ending:
it would suffice to exhibit a setting; a context; an environment; maybe a history.
If you brainstorm and illustrate some thematic ideas,
you can let your viewers fill in the blanks or connect the dots.
You could even poll your viewers about what should happen next.

oh? I got ideas for all my girls. I been working bios for all them on the down low.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Bios: yes!
Please try to convince Makini90 to illustrate them full body (for added believability and delight),
and full backgrounds (so we can see the context).

oh I got many artists that have done work for him not just Makini. But yeah don't worry I got this all plan out.

Aha, yes; well, even when boxing isn’t my
I have to admit that you have a rather unusual story there!
Quite a challenge to illustrate that, don’t you think?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
wel lthat is just a side story. I got a lot of stuff not related to boxing.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
The BIG challenge is to illustrate any of those,
with full-body characters and full-body backgrounds.
May the FORCE be with you!

I really appreciate the feedback. I truly do. Thank you so much.^^ But Noel isn't my character. she belongs to

Okay, so we have a collaboration; that's good to see.
Do we have [the beginnings of] a story?

I know you're a guy lol. Saying her the character noel belongs to you.

What's it like in Antarctica?
... Is it cold?
*SHOT!*
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Indeed, it’s the coldest continent, rarely above freezing.
I’m not actually residing in Antarctica, but in Santiago, Chile,
and every time the Chilean channels give us a weather report,
they’ll include the Antarctic Peninsula, because Chile
considers said Peninsula to be part of the national territory;
this claim is refuted by the United States of America, but,
so long as nobody finds something commercially valuable
in Antarctica, no wars will be fought.

Wait, really?
I... didn't know that XD.
That's kinda awesome ^_^.

Quite a respectable artist, you are: 
For one thing, your rendering quality is way up there with the feature-testers.
But you do so much more than test features and settings.
A look at your gallery shows an unusually broad swath of themes:
Many of your images have multiple characters, sometimes in complex interaction:

Thanks for the kind words! Still struggling to get me stuff seen by DA at large. Rare to get more than a dozen comments on any one piece. But I'm having fun with each piece, and struggling to get it to look right.

I have to respect an artist who takes his ideas seriously enough
to produce several versions of a scene, from different angles:
[...]
Most 3D artists here on DA have similar tools at their disposal (myself included),
but precious few squeeze them to the extent that you do.
I am particularly intrigued by your Red Canyon (which I also just faved):
that you rendered in Vue, but does not exhibit the trademark
salt-and-pepper effect so typical of Vue renders, especially in the foreground.
Also, I commend you for not making the water look like shower-door glass!
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thanks. I love my idea for the Red Canyon, and my skill has come a long way, but I still like the first one better: :thumb199729340: and water is damn hard to make look right, and makes for Loooong render times.

...water is damn hard to make look right...Try simulating hydrodynamics with Blender!

Wow. Don't know anything about Blender, but that tutorial looks great! Might have to learn a new software...

Love, Justice, an’ all that Jazz?
Why, I’m a sucker for stuff like that!
In fact —beg your permission—
a copy of that is now on my desktop! ^_^

Oh, and, speaking of llamas: 
On your profile, it turned albino (!)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Your : —oh, yes!
For one thing, the pose is one that I had not yet seen in a 3D model.
For another, it is very well rendered.
A lot of artists here crank out DAZ/Poser images to illustrate a story,
but are too much in a hurry to render them so they look believable.
I think I would rather they rendered them in comic-book fashion.
Thirdly, I am very interested in knowing which base figures bend best these days,
and what tricks the best artists use to improve their results.
For example, I’ve been very interested in SiliconAya ’s tests and analyses.
Here is another artist
who has logged in some extra hours in order to improve the folding of the knee.
What is your advice?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you for the compliments.
As far as any posing advice and how I improve the results I get; the main thing I can suggest is using a photo reference. This enables me, at least, to stay within the realistic scope of flexibility of the human body when bending the figure. As far as mechanics go, naturally I turn the limits on the character off. Secondly, I subdivide the model, usually by three. Adding more polys hides a lot of the janky edges that appear when you push the model to its limits. The final feature I utilize is the smoothing option on the character, though I try not to overdo it as it tends to take away from the detail.
Everything I do is by trial and error as I have no formal training with 3d art, so I'm constantly learning from my mistakes. That being said, I find that with the morph/fix packages available (glue control, beautiful bends, ideal beauty, etc) really improve the overall look of the model when posing.
Hope this info can be of use to you.
