The ideas and inspiration are beginning to flow. The first official wallpaper rolls off the Gary/CMP presses

Cerridwen chose to be the focus of our Samhain special in 2011 and we featured a story by Chris Joliffe. The story gave me the image that I finally manage to create. This piece took quite a while as all of the composition and post-work that I normally do ion Photoshop, I decided to avoid by doing all of the lighting and shadow work within the target 3D application, Poser. The hardest part was creating the sit-down position for the Dress that Cerridwen is wearing. I used the Morphing Fantasy Dress (MFD) which has sit-down morphs, but a lot of tweaking of the joints and morphs had to be undertaken to produce an image which only worked at certain angles.
I think the only direction I have to move in for sensible cloth simulation is dynamic cloth. So, scripting is the next task but after that - it's time to hit the tutorials!
Hope you like the image
