    I think the 50% sale was only on her birthday, she added the contest later after her initial message :)

    /C

    and here is another render for you Draagon... seems fitting giving your name :) And I really like your velvet shaders, they work so nicely on animals (here tey are used on the dress as well as on the dragon (excluding eyes, horns and claws) )

    Wow... see, I SAID I was making a picture... I just got carried away and couldn't stop!!!!!! Next thing I know there was snow on everything and bunnies running around and fantasy princess and stuff.... :)

    Happy birthday DraagonStorm!

    I used your Let it Snow Shaders... DS Dynamic Kimono, (I am SO going to get your newest helper set soon... It was all kinds of difficult to get the sleeves to drape properly... and now I see how awesome those animated poses/posing helpers would be!!!)... Instant Rainbow of Makeup....

    Hope you like it~

    When I first looked at hte velvety Goodness, I sort of took for granted it would be most suited for clothes and such... though I have to admit that I have mostly used it on animals so far, and it works amazingly on them ! Thanks Draagonstorm *hugs*

    I didn't think about it animals either, but when you think about it does make sense. DS render of the animals always looked to 'shiny' for my tastes.

    how's your birthday bash been? :)

    You know, i was too afraid to try to the kimonos for the LONGEST time. I bought it when it came out but was too afraid to try it... i don't animate ya know!!!!

    this was just the push i needed to try it out. Now i am trying to cloth everything with it. :) So beautiful and i love all the texture for it.....

    and as for shaders, can't get enough. :)

    And since someone asked me just wanted to say as to why there are Sakura trees growing in snow :P
    It's part of how when the Pink and white sakura blossoms grow and the petals scatter and fall, its almost like snow on the ground, and soft warm snow n the air, it smells beautiful too....it gives the illusion of a spring time snowy grounds. So a lot of fantasy asian fairy land/heaven have this kind of imagery. IF you haven't been able to see sakura paths, they are worth looking up and seeing!! gorgeous. I hope to see them someday in real life....

    Happy Birthday DraagonStorm! How about some Red Velvet Cake? Now, that's some Velvety Goodness. It's even made from scratch...LOL

    Until recently, I wanted clothes with good textures sets now I care more about material zones.

    Velvety Goodness: On Future Wilderness outfit...red and black embossed texture and solid black on collar. I also used it on the TreadZ laces and ankle strap. I applied this shader to the the primatives that make up the cake.

    Sheer Greatness shader: On Future Wilderness outfit...sleaves. I also used the same shader on Sheer Greatness pantyhose.

    Instant Rainbow of Makeup: Blush, Eye Shadow, Eyeliner.

    Post work done using Photoshop CS5.

    I went on a search and found you had the royal silver playing cards as a freebie and I was inspired to make a tarot card image. So I retextured your card to make the Death Tarot card. It is awfully hard to try and use lace on a death card so I had to take it further and create an actual image. This image uses you Sheer Greatness Lace Shaders on the Seer's clothing. I also used obsidian dawn's brushes for the arcane symbol effects. I have had a lot of fun with this lace shader.

    NAE. This image is not an entry as it does not use your product. But, it is the death tarot card that I created out of inspiration for your royal silver playing cards and I really wanted to share it in full version along with the image I created. I hope this is okay.

    Ok I recognized stonemason's set in the previous picture you did... is this one also Stonemason's winter set? And the fog camera with it? Makes me want to pull that set out and pay with it :)

    Hope that DraagonStorm had a fun and memorable Birthday month

    Also zawarkal i just realized that picture you did had sheer greatness stockings on all of them.... LOL. Def had to see that in full view. :) *giggle*

    Awesome! thanks for the reply :) i'm addicted to the snow shaders too, I use it on everything. Add it to the forest, add it to fober's lake, add it to a car- and the way it is, you even get the snow not on the bottom. It's so realistic.... and i can stop whining about the lack of winter sets or using a set in both summer and winter.

    I am also quite hooked on the kimono. It's gorgeous!! This is not a birthday contest entry, of course.... but just to show how i can't stop playing with it lately. I had to postwork a bit, because without helper tools the sleeves didn't do 100% what i wanted and i had to fix one of them. ;) and i used a bigger obi bow since it was a more fantasy thing. But it came out welll, i think.

    Has anyone heard from Draagonstorm? Haven't seen her for a long time, so I hope she is allright and not sick or buried under real life or such.
