    A friend of mine was goofing around wrote this just because:

    The machine gun chattered and bullets whizzed by as young Cpl. Stewart and his trusty mount Mr. Bouncey zig zagged at top speed to throw off the Hun's aim. Soon he heard the scream of Royal Steampunk Artillery firing on the coordinates he had called in. Gritting his teeth, he spurred his trusty velociraptor out of the blast zone just as the ground shook, throwing them both violently to earth. Dirty but unharmed, they stood with determined fierce grins. These Highlanders would live for another recon mission in this Great War.

    the mental image it inspired was one I just *had* to make!

    complaint - creators of tack (for mounts) really tick me off sometimes! Would it *really* be that difficult to put in 2 or 3 sets of reins for different type riding/scenes instead of just one that was also part of the bridle (and shared material zones so you can't even make the included ones invisible and cobble something together yourself)?!?!?! While no great equestrian by ANY stretch of the imagination, I have both been around enough horses and ridden enough to know that; while yes the ones all the different tack packs include look just fine for walking the horse, they are totally wrong for trotting, galloping, rearing, racing and pretty much any other type activity (and the ones we are MOST likely to be making an image of). Heck, there is not even options for just letting them hang or leading the horse!!!


    Utahraptor rider! :D
    Awesomeness ^^

    aah the aroma of sundae morning cawffee

    ...a coffee sundae?

    ...mmm Espresso Madness™ ice cream with chocolate icing with a dollop of whip creme and a Hershey's Kiss™ on top sounds great.

    perfection of sundae :-P

    not trying to pick on Sedor but I don't think I've seen a model pose like this before. Victoria 6 is leaning backwards while standing up. Lighting looks weird because the spotlights are to the right of the camera.

    Pose is from http://www.daz3d.com/bwc-fashion-poses-for-v6-v5-and-v4

    edit: forgot something as usual.

    on the runway, thinks i've seen them lean back just before they pivot for the return strut

    Dug up a sketch an artist I really admire did some few years ago. Velociraptor and Utahraptor :)
    (The Utahraptor - the one the velociraptor is climbing all over - is a friend of mine. His name is Echrei :> 'Eck - Ree' ^_^)

    And yup, Veloci's were little things. As the artist put it: "As you can see, velos are ittle bitty and utahraptors are great big lummoxes" :lol:


    *Edit* There's an asbolutely fantastic painting of a Velociraptor I'd like to share, but it has a bit of blood in it (Bit down on a mouse and is carrying it in its mouth), and another that has three velos licking their feathers clean after a group meal. Quite a bit more blud in the second one, but still fairly okay to look at. AFAIK posts can't be flagged anymore, so I don't know if it'd be acceptable to post or link to. They're both kind of tame (The second one maybe a bit 'iffy') but I'm still a bit on the cautious/paranoid side about all this :lol:

    ...for a 707-320B intercontinental it's throttle's at 100% power, flaps and leading edge slats at 17°, nose wheel locked, V1 at 108 knots, VR at 108 knots. V2 (unstick) at 124 knots (based on a 100 metric tonne gross wt at 75° ambient temp, at sea level).

    ...oh on a fashion runway... my apologies.

    When in Doubt send the images to any Admin and ask if they are allowed by the TOS. The team will then review the images and give you the okay or the reason they would not be allowed. This can be done with a PM and adding the images to the PM.

    Transmapping is your friend in that case.

    Actually, aside from the Aussies I suspect most of them are intently examining the insides of their eyelids for potential light leaks at this time. KK might be up, I suppose.

    ...actually laid down after dinner and ended up dozing off for a while.

    Been dealing with a lot of aches & pains the last week due to damp cool cloudy and rainy weather. All the dark days tend to make me feel more tired than usual.

    There was a tiny bit of blue sky just after dawn, dark and two pairs of socks cold the rest of today :)

    Heya, Welcome Back ^_^

    Once I have the whole story finished, I will post it up in the Art Studio section. I think it will be done (barring any major problems) by the end of the week.
