Upcoming Giveaways and Other Things
Fantasy Attic will be hosting their Halloween and Christmas freebie giveaways soon. I know, I know... it's still a bit early to be thinking about this. Well, I'm thinking about it now, because I Have notoriously very little time in which to actually sit down and work. Last year I missed both giveaways for lack of time as well as other health issues and such going on at the time.
I'd like to really do something for both giveaways this time. But what? LOL. I have fun doing poses, but I really want to do something more solid than that.
Sooooo.... this is the part where I ask, "What would you like to see made?" and hope some of you give me some
Fantasy Attic's Christmas Giveaway
Fantasy Attic is running their Christmas giveaway now. There's some really cool freebies there. Clothing, textures, brushes, backgrounds, props, etc. And my sweater was released with today's items. ^_^
I did the modeling and texture work, and ~Skiriki (https://www.deviantart.com/skiriki) did all the UVmapping on the sweater, and helped pinpoint a couple of problem spots in the geometry before it was shipped out to the folks running the giveaway. Thank you so much for your help, Ski. :D
The sweater fits all of the Genesis figures, from G1 right up through the G3's. If I can ever get a handle on rigging in Poser, I'll probably start making stuff for the Gen4's also, but at
Art Thieves Never Sleep - Snarly Wolf!
Okay... I know - believe me, I do know - that part of the risk of posting any of your work online is dealing with art theft. Some of my work, I honestly don't mind if people use for their RP characters or whatever... I prefer to be asked first, but for some of it, I really don't care. What pisses me off, however, is finding out someone is making money off of my art.
The amusing thing? He used an image of mine that is SO OLD, I hadn't even yet settled on my formal SIGNATURE yet. It's so old, and so far below my current day quality, that it does not even have a date printed on the picture, and is still using Corel LENSE FLARES! *headdesk*

Daz Product Libraries - Relax!!
So, it's no surprise to the folks who know me, that I've been on another insomniac binge. I was awake about six days, then crashed for a solid eighteen hours, and well, now I'm back to "can't sleep, the clowns will eat me" apparently. LOL And in the midst of all of this, I noticed last night that I had an empty product library over on Daz when I went over to re-download one of my items.
Okay - I checked my orders, and all the itemized order receipts are fine. No biggie. Now, I do keep a backup of all my downloads, so I'm not wholly dependent on an internet server for my content, but just the same, sometimes you need to re-download an item fo

...I understand the frustration.
In my "pre-arthritis" days I never had an issue with a canvas, watercolour, block, or sheet of drawing bristol going belly up on me in the midst fo a project. Paintbrushes, pens, and pencils didn't suddenly stop working because of a C++ runtime error. The only time memory and processing limits were challenged was when I had been working for 12 - 15 hours straight. The instruments of my craft may have needed replacement when they finally wore out, but the cost was minimal and the new ones worked perfectly fine right out of the box without requiring a system "upgrade".
Unfortunately advancing RA (rheumatoid arthritis) made it increasingly difficult to continue pursuing my art with the traditional tools. Hence, why I ended up in 3D CG as trying to tell a story sans pictures just didn't work for me. However it required a tradeoff: giving up what was simple, affordable, and elegant for something that is complex, expensive, and occasionally irritating.
...but then, it allows me to continue on.
