The jeans are a part of a set called Must-Have Casuals by pixeluna, ghostman & shadownet according to the read me. The set consists of the jeans, top and a pair of shoes that I did not use here. The only change I made was to the material on the shirt and used the morph brush on the jeans for a very small amount of poke through.
I do a fair amount of post work on some of my renders often a lot to the background and to overcome something that is quicker to correct than to re-render. Most of any 'enhancements' these days is done using Particleshop, which is all post work. Some renders are straight from Poser which is almost the case here as the only post work was to the hair and a very small point of poke-through on the shirt that I missed, so the credit for the bending must go to the creator of the jeans.
Thanks for the link to Mankahoo's hair. It was down when I first went looking for it a while back and then I forgot to check back, so the reminder was handy.
A render! I couldn't decide whether to put this in Dawn renders or Luna renders, so I'm putting it here instead: an assembly of Hivewire kids. It started as curiosity, putting them side by side and see how well they worked together and how they compared for size, but they turned it into a game of Follow-My-Leader.
At the front of the lineup is Pendraia Fae's Diva for Dawn, then Jungle Kids for Diva from CWRW, NapalmArsenal and CG Cubed (a tiny bit shorter, slightly smaller head), then the upcoming Deirdre for Baby Luna- a beta version- by Pendraia (midway in size between Diva/Jungle Kids and Baby Luna, based on a child of around age 3), then Hivewire's Baby Luna herself (using the default size setting).

That works well, just the sort of game children would play, I like it a lot.

Going to bed had been a pointless exercise for, despite her tiredness, she had hardly slept a wink. She tried many times to think of something else but each time her thoughts returned to him. She remembered how she disliked him before they had even met, he had saved her sister life and she should feel grateful, in fact she was deeply grateful. Yet she still imagined him as a arrogant, loud mouthed publicity seeker who she already detested. What she found when she met him was a quiet spoken man who could not understand all the fuss and was doing his best to stay out of the limelight.
Yes he was alien as such but through no fault of his own, dragged from his home and his time as a result of trying to save another's life. Now he was fighting for his own and she felt so helpless. She hardly knew him at all so why did his predicament bother her so much?

Another fanboi pic and one of StudioArtVartanian's (Joanna's) finest. Yannis for M4 (aka Jack Sparrow).

I needed a villain for a scene I'm working on, and just for fun I let this one render out while I was away. Don't usually do character studies... Would really like a hi-res, hi-detail hook to go with, preferrably geo-graphed...

Awesome, VB! Loving the texturing, including the salt-and-pepper hair and the knicks along the sword blade. Nice body hair (hope that doesn't sound weird!). Did wonder how he kept all the blood out of his head hair, though. Does the hilt have a wet-look texture?

@HaiGan The sword doesn't have a "wet" texture. The sparkles are just not fully converged. The scratches came with the sword texture. I want to bloody up the blade, though, and I would love to make a bloody mess of the hair too, but the hair is fibermesh-based, so the UV isn't blood friendly...

That old crate looked like it was carved from Steampunk technology. Still equipped with forward firing guns, I sure wouldn't get in it's way. I wonder what the flight ceiling is for such a craft? By the way, even though she spends a lot of time on her ship, I can see her still enjoying an old fashioned flying fighter. I've driven a corvette and a porshe but I still liked driving the old touring cars of the 40's and 50's. Seatbelts are essential these days but that bucket is so old it doesn't have seatbelts. To be fair, none of the starfighters I own have seatbelts either!

Yea, there is a part of me that goes along with that, although the new cars with all their fancy features is a good drive day to day, there is also a charm in some of the old ones that were basic but fun. The other thing is that there is so much to go wrong with cars today some of the old ones just kept on going and were easy to fix.

Over at Rendo I asked about deer models. I've had some encounters with deer lately and wanted to make some cartoons on my blog. I couldn't find any deer models in the usual places. Seachnasaigh reminded me of Lyne's models, which I'd forgotten about. He also mentioned that Lyne was usually around here.
Lyne's reindeer works beautifully for the mule deer I'm seeing. The ears are scaleable!
Thanks, Lyne!!!!!
