Winged Folk
-----------------------------------
As I indicated in the notes to my image "Pink Petal Fairy", I've been creating Fairys & other "winged Folk" lately...; Thanks to Tormie's new ruling about series in forums, I present some to you.

Here's one more; done entirely in P5 (no Photoshop at all...).

Today I think I'll ask Posette & Judy if they'd like to be fairies in my series...

Thanks Nik; I just finished another "Fairy image"; but it features a posette character, so I'll post it into the gallery.

Thanks too, for reminding me of the A3 Sera figures {I've always like them, because of the wings for the legs}; I'll have to pull it out and use it during this current "Fairy Phase".

Thanks for the comments Tormie!  :) 

Here is a different look at the Anan "Dark Fairy"; this view shows more of Anan & less of the wings. Sky added, blur applied, and colors adjusted in Photoshop 5.5.

Here is the latest "Winged Woman" I created.
I started out to see if I could create a "cybernetic", "robotic", or "mechanical" fairy; but I realized that I don't have the correct clothing or wings to to that (Yes, I could use "Futura", or "B-Co" as a starting point, and I still might...; but I realized that I have many "Sci Fi Armor clothing sets, and ...); so the image changed to a "Sci Fi Winged Guardian". 

I'm pretty pleased with the way this character turned out (especially the texturing on the clothing...); I hope to think of a setting/ scene for this character soon (maybe she can "shoot it out" with some of the Non-winged Action Girls that I've created...  :mmmh:  .

Wow; more nice comments... Thanks much!

I haven't been able to spend much time online in the last few days; but I am still "in a Winged Folk mode"; here are two that I finished this morning after testing the new "Hades Wings" freebie.


One features Alexa2 {because I started out today testing a pose set product for her...}; the other features Ms. Four {because the wings were designed to fit her...}.

{I have to run again now; but I will try to get back here later to post a couple of others from the last few days...}

Hmm...

Now what did I see that would go well with such, um, Gothic style... ???

Thanks for the link Nik; I hadn't seen that in a while. 
 :friends: 


As I stated earlier, I've been distracted from the "Winged Folk" series by various things lately...; I still need to postwork a couple of images, and I still have at least two "Mechanical fairies" in mind to create. (on that note: I did locate in my runtimes a set of wings that should work well for that type of character.)


Here is the latest "publishable" winged folk image; it started as a comparison of a few freebie original characters that do not get much support. At first there were four figures; but I just couldn't get "Thai Baby" to "feel correct" in the image. (The bush behind the character on the right, is really a prop created in Ivy Generator based on her; so in a way she is still there.  :)  )

The characters from left to right are: "Dark Anvil Heroine" (Princess), wearing Kozaburo's "Ponytail" hair, & "Alluring Wings" by Maria;
"Melva" from Dolphling & Yanelis3D, wearing Kozaburo's "Short Hair", & "Angel wings" by Virus & Erlik;
and the recently released "K" from Kirwyn, wearing "Yanet hair" by Yanelis3D, & "Mosquito wings" (I couldn't find the readme in my runtimes; so I can't credit the creator.  :redface: )


I imagined that since they are "orphaned" characters that they should each be unique; and perhaps meet from time to time deep in the magical woods, to comfort each other. In this image they have made a surprising discovery.  :mmmh:


The image also contains several of Brainstew's "Grass Props", and one of Traveler's "Dead Grass" props. (My favorite grasses!)

Posing, lighting, & texture manipulations are by me. {I had a bit of trouble getting the lighting to be what I wanted; so I eventually had to create two renders, each with different lighting, and combine them in Photoshop. Somewhere in this process, I lost control over the alpha channel, and so the background image is not composited as well as I would've like it to be. I would have re-rendered the images, and started over; but that is when the distractions began.)

Now that I'm finished with the distractions, I need to reactivate my "Fairy Muse".  :mmmh:  
It seems that since my daughters haven't been working Poser lately, that I've lost interest in "Winged Folk".  :redface: 
{I'll have a long, tough conversation with myself tommorrow, to see if I can at least get the ones that I started, complete enough to post to this series thread.} :dash:

I had the talk with myself; but clearly, I did not listen, since I still have not made anymore progress with the "Winged Women" images.
 :redface:  :dash: 

Honestly though, Monday I was invited to go help my Mother & Grandmother do some shopping. (They wanted to get digtal TV converter boxes, and correctly assumed that my experience & expertise with electronics would be useful.) I did not know at the start that this shopping trip would also include several stops completely unrelated to the converter boxes, and involve 4 hours of "mall-crawling".  :crying: 

The next days, I was quite busy testing a couple of items for 3DCommune; but I finished them yesterday, and instead of opening the "Winged Women" images, I created a "Cars & Cuties" image using recently aquired freebies. :cool:  {If you'd like, you can see it in the 3DC Poser gallery...} Since the "Cars & Cuties" image didn't take too long to do, I then created a "Pin-Up" featuring Victoria2 (again inspired by recently added freebies...), while making PeanutButter Cookies for the daughters.  :redface: 

That brings us to today...; I went to "The Halls Of Olympus" to apologize for a stupid question that I asked, and post a couple of older images that I'd created using some of Zeus' freebies; and I still haven't opened a pz3 containing an incomplete "Winged Woman" image. {Ah well, the day (here) is still young...  :whistle:  :D

-----------------------------------
Cheer up, I've yet to assemble the three book-shelves that I bought a month ago...

By the time RealLife (TM) is done for the day, with routine stuff resolved, disasters mitigated, meals zapped and a nap snatched, I don't have the heart to disturb the house with the unprintable sounds of flat-pack assembly...

Doesn't help that every time I find time, the cordless drivers have been unplugged too long and gone flat...

Better to chill on-line for a while, run the washing, let cats in/out/in/out, congratulate big tabby 'GingerBits' on his latest catch, then close for night. GB's record is three big rats in an hour. :clap: Fortunately, he always carries or leopard-drags his prey onto the garage roof, leaves it as bait for sea-gulls...

I am glad that I posted some of these images here; because I can't find them in my 'post crash' hard drives...  :bad-words: 

Since I last posted to this thread, I have created a couple of images featuring "Winged Women"...; so I will certainly post them here too. (... soon...; no really... soon...  :redface:  )
