Thanks for the addition Miss B :) It didn't show up on the particular search I was doing. I usually like SAV's stuff, so thanks.

Yeah, it was good to just take it easy and hunt for freebies. I guess by now you can tell I was having problems seeing this morning...haha. Things are clearing up some now, so I might be able to do some work on the next project. Hope things are moving forward for you :)

Hey Miss B :) I was beginning to wonder, which was it, but it's probably like people never knew about me until I started sharing it...most never suspected a little old lady so the anonymity was sorta fun for a lot of years :)

Click to expand...

Most people get the impression that I'm male, also, until I or someone else mentions otherwise. ;)

I'm sure part of it is due to the profile avatars I use... but I've been told repeatedly over the years that I "sound male" in text when I talk, too.

And in offline life, people constantly think I'm butch. Can't win. LOL :D

Well, there was a time when women who had a confident presentation, or were the "leader" types were considered less than feminine, but things are changing now. When I first started in 3D, very few women expressed an interest in modeling, and that happened to be the way I started, piddling with props in order to help Sarah...and everything thereafter that we tackled just didn't fit the mold of what when did with 3D...like animation. Finally her interest settled more in making clothing textures, the accepted feminine role, and I was still hammering out animations...and I think that carried things along for years. It wasn't until I had to start taking some breaks due to health issues that I finally shared that I was older, and walked with a cane. I had noticed that men tend to "spar" with each other about 3D techniques, so it cut down on guys trying to do that with me, but it also can lead to folks not taking you as seriously if there's not some command in the presentation.

Seliah, glad you like it :) Recognize the hair...now you know why I needed a ponytail the other night :) It would be fun to do more like this...I'll see how this one goes over on ShareCG.

I think I've about finished tweaking the larger site where I store my renders that I've kept separate from the toon work...so if anybody is interested in taking a look, it's at the link below. Some of the images are quite large, and I'm keeping it that way for archiving purposes...which doesn't make it ideal web design, but simple to navigate along the top menu. I've even got some of my stuff posted from back when I first started with DAZ Studio 1. Anyway, enjoy :)
