diomede64 #1 No banana peel, but it looks like the creature was a little heavy for the bridge. Fun render and nice posing!
emsim #1 A dragon is a great surprise. Hehe. Nice fall!
Sasje #1 I love the poses, especially the dragon's tongue!
Totte #1 This one is a lot of fun! I love the action and the details! Jack T's XXXX? Looks like good stuff. I think the racers (and bystanders) will need some. ;-P
HastyDave#1 Oooh, Dad is a quite the jokester! Wonder what the payback will be.
Pull #3:
Michael 4 Muscle Maps
Highlander: Wildenlander for Genesis
Dream Home : Dining Room
Angelo for M4
Action Kicker Boots
This will have to be really strange.

Flying Tonight
It was getting late in the day, the diner customers had mostly left and Dave was just clearing up the tables outside when a strange woman came literally flying towards him and sent him tumbling to the ground. He hadn't seen that coming!
Also Used:
Witch - Isla for V4
Man - Dean for D5
Moonshine's Diner and Interior, Diner Tableware, Diner Food 1-5, Carnival Picnic Tables
Speed Render Stages (dusk backdrop and ambient lighting), Advanced Spotlight
Time for another look through the entries so far:
@Sasje "Keep your mind together" - great fun. Poor old dragon - I love the way you have his tongue hanging out and the dazed eyes.
@HastyDave "A joke too far" - glad you decided not to show that "accident" too explicitly! Love her expression.
@Totte "Biker's curse" - oops! I love the ad hoarding and the beat-up car in the background, but WHAT ON EARTH is that construction worker wearing???!
@Luci45 "The Warlock's Fall" - fantastic concept, must have taken quite a while to do all that. I love the reborn warlock at the end, he's really rather cute. (Interesting new avatar you've got for yourself too - have we seen her before, she looks vaguely familiar?)
And my 2nd Pull:
561 = Just Rings Goth
1261 = Al-Khimia (texture set for Alchemy Chasm)
1058 = Tweens for Justin and Julie
515 = Working Man for M4 Unimesh Fits
Thanks, MelanieL, Totte and emsim!
Hehe. I used the hair before and have been using the same face morph - I looked something like that a "few" years ago... %-P
Catching up on posts, still need to find a moment to assemble and render my own. (Had to do a bit of object construction first...)
@emsim: (#1) Great action in this picture. Very dynamic pose.
@Luci45: (#1) Bet they're going to have to explain how they knew in advance...
@Sasje: (#1) Terrific all around. The pose on the dragon is great, and his expression just slays me.
@HastyDave (#1) I could see some prank wars escalating to that. Great way to pull things together.
@Totte (#1) That could be dangerous, building a road in the middle of the street!
@Luci45 (#2) Nice short story and good imagery; the third picture is especially good.
@MelanieL (#1) Beware of low-flying witches! :D Fun image.
Thank you Totte, Luci45 & Morgan R. Lewis.
RL has been interfering with my ability to finish my second entry but I'm sure I'll finish it before the deadline. I have been enjoying everyone else's entries though.
Sasje #1: I love the dragon's expression. He really fell hard for her! (I couldn't resist)
Hasty Dave #1: Josie's expression says it all. I'm glad I don't have a practical joker like that in my house!
Totte #1: This is great - I especially like the billboard. I'm pretty sure the construction worker's attire doesn't meet OSHA regulations though. :-P
Luci45 #2: I like the story and the layout of the pictures. This was a clever way to bring all those items together.
MelanieL #1: I love the way the witch is flying along with her head in the clouds - or bats in this case - oblivious to the busboy she knocked over.
ETA: I forgot to comment on diomede #1: This one is fun - the person in that boat is in trouble though!

At The Human Being Museum
For the Elebeast children, the Human Being Museum was always a fun place to visit. They didn't care that the exhibits were a bit disorganized and the facts about human history distorted. Their main purpose was amusement. One one occasion Sammy was examining an "Action kicker" boot and his trunk got stuck (the freak accident part.) Marlon was rolling on the floor laughing. To their surprize a security guard showed up to scold them for touching the exhibits, and he was a real human being - Margie was astounded to see a real one and this close!

Came together pretty much as planned, although I did wind up having to do a bit of model construction myself -- was not planning on that. But it turned out that I didn't have any conveniently-breakable vases to use, so a bit of time in trueSpace was called for...

Granthor the Mighty, Vanquisher of Porcelain
Fantasy authors always write about the difficulties of someone from our modern world finding themselves stuck in a medieval or bronze-age fantasy. Hardly anybody ever writes about the difficulties of someone from those worlds getting stuck in ours.
@luci45 (#3): Fun image, and very creative. Lots of different elements brought together in a very natural way. (Well, as natural as "elebeasts" can get. :) )
OK, pull #2 for me...

...lost my Net service earlier this week so won't be as frequent a visitor for while as I have to go to the local coffee shop to get online when I can scrape up enough cash to justify my sitting there and using their bandwidth. Will try to get caught up with all the submissions as I have to be off for a meeting in a few minutes (once my DL transfers are complete).

Wrong turn
Lou-Cindy Al'Ahazared had built her replica of a medieval persian alchemist laboratory in the Everglades to get the right humidity and temperature for her experiments. Meanwhile Lee Van Dahl and his girlfriend the blond bimbo Tina was out driving the Swamp boat. Tina shouted Left!, Lee said Left? Tina Said Right! and Lee made the wrong turn...
MelanieL #1 Lol - how to you explain that to your boss, “I was struck down by a witch on a broomstick”
luci45 #3 - That’s so fun, so weird, so great so Luci!
MorganRLewis #1 - Lol - Reminds me of the French movie “The Visitors”
Sasje #2 - Haham another really great render and poor uncle.

This was a very weird mix - will be fun!
Thanks,Totte,
MelanieL#1 LOL. I love the posing and expressions. The details are pretty cool too - the bats, flying tableware and apron. The dark lighting adds to the weird mood really well.
Morgan R. Lewis #1 Ooops. It didn't look that fragile to Granthor maybe and he surely needed to pound on something, since that is what he does. I love the exprssions and poses, and the fragments. I really need to learn model construction - it is really handy sometimes.
Sasje #2 Haha, crazy girl, that Britt. Nice scene, beautiful lighting!
Totte #2 This is a truly insane Totte render! I love it! Great use of the pull. I wonder how long Lou-Cindy will last in the Everglades with these lovely neighbors.
Totte #3 Oh, that is just wicked! :roll: ;-P

Well I'm almost despairing of ever finishing my second entry - it has been so hot here the past week or so that I could hardly bear to sit at my rendering PC which lives in a tiny room - so what better excuse to sit in a cooler spot with the laptop and look at the forums...
@Luci45 "At the Human Being Museum" - cute critters, lively posing - another great one from you! (Thanks for the comments on my #1)
@Morgan R. Lewis "Granthor the Mighty..." - oh poor Granthor, he looks so ashamed, like a naughty schoolboy! Great idea. (And thanks for your comments on my first too)
@emsim - thanks for your comments on my batty witch.
@Sasje "Surprise attack" - I think I blame the dog! I love the lighting in this one.
@Totte "Wrong turn" - great stuff! And I didn't realise Opus Magnum was so versatile - works rather well in a modern setting.
"Last scene" - are you going for the Ken O'B prize for gross-out humour (I think it was Ken who did the beans joke last?) Nice effects.
My you've been busy this weekend (and thanks for your comments on my first too)
@HasyDave "Gone in 60 Pickles" - nice wreck, nice render. (And that list on the blackboard must have taken some time too - I guess you have a sizeable runtime?!)
Thanks for your comments Luci45 & MelanieL.
HastyDave #2 - Yea, he even looks like Vin Diesel, nice one!

Bad shortcut
The delivery driver with cargo for the history exhibition at the town museum wanted to save the road toll and took a short cut...
@Sasje (#2): Another great pose here; really has that sense of being an ongoing motion. Great lighting as well.
@Totte (#2): Always seems like a driver-navigator duo is more dangerous than a driver alone, doesn't it?
(And I think I've heard of The Visitors; I'll have to check it out some time.)
@Totte (#3): Ouch. I don't think that'll go into the director's cut.
@HastyDave (#2): I can only imagine how long it must have taken you on the blackboard. Worth it, though, as it really sells the homage.
@Luci45: Thanks. Model creation can be a pain in the neck sometimes, and there are certainly things I'd never want to tackle with it, but you're right that it can come in handy.
@MelanieL: Thanks, Melanie. I'm glad the "naughty schoolboy" impression came across; I worked on Granthor's pose probably longer than anything else in the scene other than creating the vase.
EDIT: And a quick addition, since Totte had that sneaky little cross-post while I was typing this up: Really fun image for #4. Lot of craziness going on in there. I love the face-down soldier falling right in front of the bicyclist.
Just lurking around in anticipation of joining some day. I like all the renders I see here, and realize just how much I have yet to learn.
Not casting votes, just saying. I really like both of Totte's entries. "Wrong Turn", and "Bad Shortcut". Where's my decision dice, lol.
Silly question, as my collection is lacking verity in allot of areas. Say I roll nothing except outfits and hair, Am I limited to just using that, or can I add to the list (so long as I use the stuff from the dice roll, per page 1 rules)?
...you can use as many other items as you need too make the selections work. For example I had one pull that had three scene sets, one prop, and only one character oriented item (clothing). Ended up with 8 figures in the scene and a lot of other items to make it work.
Took first place for that month.
As long as all the pulled items are there and can be readily identified (even if it is just a part of one) you should be OK.
Thank you, I guess I'll try some "Dry run attempts" after supper. Just to see how this works out. Something like 4 sets of footwear (that I can find), 5 environment sets, a dozen figures, and every Genesis 1&2 wilmap outfit. A very lopsided collection, lol. Again Thank you all, I'm really liking this thread.
(EDIT)
Finished exporting and cropping duplicate entries. I have;
228 Daz Items (Including tutorial lessons)
188 Wilmap outfits (And props).
Total of 416 items (Excluding software and plug-ins like "G2F Essentials"). Hmmm.
(edit)
I forgot some stuff was in multiple parts, adding it up now. on page 14 (Wilmap Gallery), and at the 400 mark for total items I have.
(edit2)
Numbers corrected.
Thanks for your comments morgan. And Melanie, thinking about it, I think Gopheus is the gas-master of RRRR.
