Fiona and Beltran

Image
I just finished the 3D models for the characters in the book I'm currently working on. This is Fiona... And this is Beltran... I think Beltran is probably my favorite of any of the one's I've done so far. He looks perfectly like the picture of him I have in my head. I don't want to give too many details away about these two other than the fact that she is the Princess of Sithein, and he's a vampire from northern Spain. To find out all the details someone is just going to have to publish their book. That is to say, as soon as I get it written. :D I've only written about 8,000 words and a pretty detailed outline of it thus far, but it's coming along nicely. Well no more procrastinating back to writing!

Lightening and All!!!

Image
My darling husband finished adding the lightening to Dana, and we did a few edits! I'm so happy with her!

Doh!

Image
I lost the 3D models I had when I reinstalled, so I had to completely redo them. I think I've got them like I want them again. So here is Dana's full body shot. And here is her close up... And here is my cute little vampiress, Arianna!

Artwork!

Okay, I've tried posting these twice with Picassa and was thwarted at both attempts. Let's see if I can do it this way... Wahoo at least it seems to have worked thus far... The first picture is Arianna. The next two are Dana. They are still pretty rough. I did the designing but Bryon is supposed to go in and clean them up for me and add some visual effects. Dana's going to be holding lightening in her hands. Can't wait!!!

The Lucky Horseshoe

I have a horseshoe that I've been meaning to clean up and hang above the door for ages and just haven't gotten around to. So while watching an episode of Piggly Winks the other day with my little guy about why horseshoes were lucky, I got to wondering. I found this awesome website that I just had to share.

Snow + Southern Girl + Car + Hills = Bad Idea

Listening to: We Can by Leanne Rimes It started snowing about 11 this morning, but it was so cold I was sure that it wasn't going to mess with the roads. What the heck gave me that idea? So at 11:30 I start over to Lishy's house from work so we can work on some stuff and so that I can have some human contact. (Bryon is still in Orlando.) And the roads are NOT fine! They are in fact already getting quite icky! So after barely making it up a hill near her house, I finally get there. There is a lull in the snow by this time, and I realize that if I'm going to get home my best time is between the last snow and the next band that is incoming. So I get my little bear bundled up in his car seat and start home. About twenty minutes have passed so the roads are a little better. Rather than going up a hill with a super scary 45 degree angle grade, I think, I'll just turn down this side road and then go back up to the main road its only a couple of blocks... Yes, folks, s...

Scary Sounds and Vampires

Listening to: This One's For the Girl's I'm trying my hand this week at single parenting. My darling husband is in Orlando *grumbles jealously* at a Sharepoint convention. So Nicky and I and the pups are here alone. Not that I'm really worried or anything. Fippy, though his name sounds like he should be the size of a chihuahua, is in fact a HUGE part Lab who has threatened to attack my husband when he wasn't sure who he was. There is no way he would let anyone get anywhere near the munchkin and me. But it's still totally weird! I have never actually been alone an entire night in my entire life. Of course now I have Nicky with me so I'm not really alone, but still! So now we're sitting here listening to music so that we don't hear all the creepy sounds that houses make at night! Where do vampires come in to all this? I'm working on a 3D Model in DAZ of my cute little vampire Arianna. Off to play with it some more and maybe actually wri...
