Dana's Animated Mind

Well, I think the one thing that was a given that eventually I would improve. Sheila was actually a character created by my friend Kat for her Fed, BACW, which has turned into quite a productive venture. When people think of Poser's for E-Wrestling, they think of crappy unartistic stuff anybody can do by picking up the box at a local store one day, and playing with it. Don't get me wrong, I was at that level to, but I played with it to get myself to a level I like to be at.

Initially, I didn't do it for quite a long time (Making efed posers that is), because people tend to be demanding. If the balls weren't big enough, heaven forbid you have scorned them. The problem with some of these e-fed handlers is they don't appreciate the time and effort it takes to do this stuff, and the fact I don't get paid to do so means they should respect that I am doing something for them at all.

I didn't do it until Kat asked me to do one of her characters, so I did. I actually did three variations over the last two years, but then someone look at my art and said I make very nice female images. So I made a few more, then the endless cycle goes on.

Part of the issue with other feds is they don't take nearly as much time. The only time they spend quite a bit is to work on the textures, but I have learn over the learns textures is a small amount. There is composition, there is lighting, there is emotion, there..oh boy I could list all the things I learned over the learns and possibly bore you.:)

In case anybody reading, no I frankly don't give an honest rat ass if I piss some E-Fed poser artists off. If they don't like my opinion of their artwork, then well, too bad. If you whine "All I got is Poser 4", I have seen some amazing things done by people with JUST poser 4 (in my case, 6/7, and Carrara 6). As far as critiquing their work, I think it is safe to say I can show you what I got to safely say I don't like your completely.

Plus there is Daz Studio, which employs 3Delight. This is a Raytrace program that will help you tremedously.

My honest opinion is they treat Poser artwork as reference tools, rather then my usage as artwork. Yesterday, I only produced two images, but partially because the character for the other was already created. I was just modifying and putting in a different scene. This lady in this blog took me..oh god...quite a few dedicated hours and a lot of test shots in Poser, and a few in Carrara.

I really don't know what the issue is with some of those Efed Poser artists as people keep telling me "You are SO much better then...." I think you folks should honestly step up to the task, otherwise people might start going "But...why can't my posers look like his???" That's a tough one to explain.
