    I dreamed someone climbed out the window:

    Eyes burn and mouth hissing -

    he is not human, not real ...

    And bloodied hand

    pulled into broken glass ...

    But get scared man

    then I really did not have time

    Like the window pulled him

    back unknown power ...

    Another scene, someone's house,

    Alien, faceless and glamorous ...

    Some boy was my husband ...,

    Totally unsuitable for me:

    He was divinely beautiful;

    Dancer soaring over the precipice

    Above all living look

    it glowed mysteriously

    Bringing joy to the motive.

    In the empty courtyard we said goodbye

    The moment has come; he called me

    the place where we met

    And where could at the right time

    Once met again;

    But I forgot about him ...

    No regrets, no sadness.

     

    In the wet, pitch dark

    I was getting out of the well;

    Dreaming of seeing the sun again

    Enough protrusions are not those ...

    Cold air stream

    Face saving sweep;

    And the soil with the smell of sage

    Rustled touched feet.

    I ran, I run ...

    The moon illuminates the road

    And the forest drops by the collar

    then rain, then snow ...

    Everything disappeared ...

    Here is my attempt of line by line translation of my poem. Unfortunately, the rhymes could not be preserved.

     

    Nameless dream

    I dreamed that someone

    climbed the window

    Trying to get in;

    Burning eyes and hissing mouth -

    he is not human, not real indeed ...

    And bloodied hand

    pulled into broken glass ...

    But I really did not have time

    to get scared by this man,

    As unknown power

    pulled him back...

     

    Another scene, someone's house,

    Alien, faceless and glamorous...

    Some boy was my husband...

    Totally unsuitable for me:

    He was divinely beautiful;

    Dancer soaring over the precipice;

    He stretched his gaze above all living,

    Glowing mysteriously,

    Bringing joy to the motive.

    In the empty courtyard we said goodbye

    The moment had come;

    he named the place where we met,

    And where could meet once again;

    But I forgot about him ...

    No sadness, no regrets.

     

    In the wet pitch dark

    I was getting out of the well;

    Dreaming of seeing the sun again;

    Grabbing protrusions but the wrong ones...

    Sudden air flow caressed my face

    And my feet touched the soil

    with the smell of sage,

    tenderly rustling.

    I ran, I kept running ...

    And the forest dropped

    both rain and snow

    by the collar...

    Everything disappeared ...

     

    In the spacious hall by the window,

    I quietly hid behind the curtain,

    I could see it well through the shabby cloth:

    Damascus torn wallpaper

    dangling in the corner;

    The fireplace flickered with crazy fire,

    Cold blue fractals

    were going over the floor...

    Some shadow separated from the wall:

    Man in black -

    woven from the air;

    His silhouette

    was not reflected in the glass;

    The edge of his satin cloak slid

    along the blue flame tongues...

    Suddenly he appeared at the window

    Literally a step away from me...

    Mindlessly and spellbound,

    I was waiting for the plot development;

    But the dream was not to be completed -

    It was interrupted by a low trill

    of the usual morning call.

    Poems from Veronika to Banjo Finnie

     

    awesome work guys and gals yes

  • WendyLuvsCatzWendyLuvsCatz Posts: 38,200

    I better start thinking about an entry thread and closing date surprise

  • DiomedeDiomede Posts: 15,165

    Wow, Veronika, that is beautiful.  Wish I could appreciate it in the original.  

     

    MAJourney - excellent work.  For what it is worth, I prefer the portrait dimensions over the landscae dimensions.  Zooms in a little more to appreciate the expressions.

    MAJourney, I agree with Diomede, the portrait with the expressions looks better.

    And for my third project, how about some MacBeth?

    I had to use some silly toon figures even if the theme is horror. The witches are morphs of the femme fatale figure.  Tried to give each witch a different character.  Hairs were converted to obj using Philemo's plugin.  The cauldron is the freebie.

    An example of posing and using VWD.  Here is a witch pouring oozy bad stuff into a cauldron. Intermediate stage.  Pose saved as a clip.  Dress draped in VWD, converted to primitiveand then back to vertex object to preserve shape, and then saved to browser.  This way, can work on each witch individually and save to browser, instead of running VWD three times in same scene/

    Having a little fun.  Here is a test render stacking the native Toon filter with a couple GMIC filters.  No VWD.  Just attached the dresses to the figures.

    Sounds of Silence in another Thirty Years

    Scary & Disturbing!

    Used the phong plugin by Philemo and noire by DCG

     

    thanks a terrific effect - care to share your phong settings etc ?

     

    ummmm...

    from memory I think I set the displacement at 0.001 or .002 and just used 8 and 1 on the  settings on the phong...

    Aaarrrgh! Trying to work on my second entry, "Girls in Red", but I'm having issues with G2F's eyes. Even with reflection at 0 on the cornea nd eyereflection, it looks wrong to me. and if you set the alpha to 0 or transparency to 100, thee's an ugly black blotch underneath.

    what to do....

    This is an illustration to another my poem:

    The moon rises like a crimson eye
    Soaring over a light cloud.
    In a lonely way, it streams its magnetic light
    Through black branches.
     
    Wormwood air breathes with mistery
    Painting magical dreams;
    And sleepy spirit hears involuntarily
    The moon's call that captivated it.
     
    Goddess of the late midnight,
    You reign all alone in the cold mist.
    What is the power that has been given to you
    Over the children of subtle nature?

     

    I used the same UV plugin to convert roof textures. As usual, no post work.

    Mystarra, I've seen it before. Dropdowns stop working with 4k monitors and if monitor resolution is different from 100%.
