In Celtic mythology the Tuatha de Danaan lived in the barrows and burial mounds which littered the Irish landscape and were believed to be entrances to the Otherworld. Times changed and the Tuatha de Danaan faded from memory as Ireland became a very different place for most of its people. I got to thinking about the Fair Ones and if they remembered their old homes, and do they sometimes return seeking former glories of a lost age.

Danu - Remember Me... A companion image to Memories of Home. Danu was the mother goddess of the Tuatha de Danaan (Children of Danu).

Thank you! I've had these images in my head for ages now and given my great love of all things Celtic (especially the Irish Cycles) I'm delighted to finally be getting my act together and doing something about it!

Wow, thanks guys & gals!
For Stargate fans, I'm now tidying up and packaging the Atlantis playset. Replacing the default library icons with decent legible icons, removing BAKs, etc.
I had a huge sky panorama for the P11 construct (skydome/ground prop) rendering in Vue, but HyperVue choked and died. Didn't run out of memory (pulling 11.5GB on a 96GB machine); HyperVue just does that sometimes. Poser's Queue Manager is much more stable.
*If* I can get a sky panorama (or two, or three) done before release, I'll include them, otherwise they'll be offered as add-ons when I can get them done.
Right now, I have two workstations with separate Vue licenses running network skydome renders, with each workstation allotted some servers. It all *seems* to be working - so far.

When I merged two zips, OBJs and libraries folder, into a part 1 zip, I misplaced the libraries folder so that they are in a runtime within the runtime. I have uploaded a corrected part 1 zip marked as "SR1".
Sorry for the error; either move the libraries folder or download the corrected SR1 zip for package 1.

Looks pretty good, Joe, but........
The clock is completely wrong for the scene. You've got an elegant, modern room with a huge, grungy clock with no hands. Just out of place and too prominent.
I would probably add some smoothing to the table - you're quads are showing on some of the curves.

Heh heh... I particularly like that clock; looks like a salvaged antique. With no hands -and the clockwork internals long since perished- it isn't there to tell us the current time; it's there to remind us of a bygone time.
