    Goodbye, Blue Warrior
    Joyous travels on the bright road...

    This is for Jaderail. I pulled these the night before he passed, and that next morning, well, it seemed like the pull was meant for him. I thought he would prefer riding a tiger to a horse.

    The freak accident was the the tiger knocked over the little table while leaping through the gate. This awoke the (statue) guards, who didn't notice anything but a blur and a whooosh.

    Used:
    TOA Legend for Genesis 2 Male(s) and Michael 6
    Timeless Reflections Furniture
    Statuesque
    Old Manor
    English Tack for the Millennium Horse (Lucky Bastard bonus)

    Also Used:
    Reby Glamour Hair
    DAZ Big Cat 2 - Tiger

    Flinks Sky Stars
    Cat World Regenesis HD - Lion

    I'm taking a break from my second render so I can look at it one more time before I post it. Not that I plan to change anything because I can't think of anything else to add. I thought this was a good time to catch up on everyone's entries.

    Luci45 #3: This is a fun one. I love the elebeast with his trunk in the boot. This group looks like a handful!
    Morgan R. Lewis #1: Great expressions and nice job on the broken vase.
    Sasje #2: Poor uncle's going to be hurting. I really like your lighting in this one too.
    Totte #2: Nothing like crazy neighbors to ruin your day. Nice job on this one!
    Totte #3: The expression on the actress' face cracked me up. Probably not the special effects that they were going for!
    HastyDave #2: This turned out really nicely. Looks like pickles + exhaust pipe are not a good combination though.
    Totte #4: Definitely an unfortunate decision on the delivery driver's part - unfortunate for all the bystanders anyway.
    Luci45 #4: This is a beautiful tribute to Jaderail. He looks very joyful riding on that tiger.

    Well, this is what I came up with and I must thank Phil Wilkes sometime for his excellent Infinite Skills series for Carrara. In this case it was invaluable in teaching me how to fix poke-through as those bears were busting out of their clothes in all kinds of embarrassing places!

    Title: Stumbling into a Strange Place
    After Sophie recovered from her fall, she went for a walk in a lovely field where she found a strange door. Not having the sense to leave well enough alone, she tripped as she went through and stumbled into a strange scene. Three unusual-looking carnies were taking a break before setting up for the big show that night.

    So cool of you to do that.

    It is a challenging mix! It is coming along, but I think it may take a looong time to render. I may have to simplify a few things.

    All of the drawn items should be pretty obvious, except maybe Divinity Skies Prophecy. I turned it upside down, scaled it way down, used glass and metal shaders and turned it into a punch bowl. This entry took over 10 hours to render. Too much glass!!!

    Also used:
    G2F with Greta and Bellatrix dialed morphs
    G2M with Boris HD morphs
    Colin skin texture
    House Mouse
    Aslan Court 1
    Glass and metal shaders

    Title: Bring more punch
    When Gretabelle told Boris to bring more punch to the soiree, that is NOT what she meant. When Boris punched the bag, it catapulted Mr, Mouse (who had been napping on top in his red jammies) through the air, straight into the punch bowl. Now they really need more punch!

    Been away for to long I guess. I see some really good renders here.

    Luci45, Goodbye, Blue Warrior
    Very nice homage to his blitzing threw the forums, and then beyond.
    If I may, it is not exactly clear the guard were sleeping from there poses, tho that dose not matter. There startled by the bluer going by as it is. It works.

    Totte, Pipe Nightmare
    That is, well, "a bad day". All that work down the drain, lol.
    Nice render, tho the water effect was not clear at first. It almost looked like a glass container of water exploded in her hand.
    then I read the text, "O" that's what's going on.

    barbult, Bring more punch
    nice alteration of scene element uses. lol.
    I was picturing an Elf boxing match of sorts, tho the "More Punch" dose the trick.
    I'm not quite sure about the angles involved there with the mouse from the punching bag, it is good enough tho.

    Sasje, Watch out !!!
    Nice classic stooge/tv comedy, I like it.
    If I may say, I didn't notice the cat off the bat. Perhaps if a few more boards were falling over there.
    The rest looks good.

    ...yeah, in my unfinished work for the "Refused Sports" theme, spent a bit of time visually plotting the arc and trajectory for the catoblepas that was shot from a catapult.

    Thanks, emsim, Novica, Totte, Morgan R. Lewis, zarcondeegrissom. I agree the guards may not look like they were sleeping - statue guards are tricky that way. (Actually that was a last minute thought as I had no freak accident in mind, just wanted to do this for Jaderail. I am absent-minded sometimes.)

    HastyDave #2 LOL, guess I am to desnse to get this one. I didn't see the movie witha similar title. But, cool render - the back of the car is pretty funny.
    Totte #4 - Freak accidents seem to hit a deep cord with you - another awesome one.
    emsim #2 I love this one - funny situation, characters and posing!
    Totte #5 A burst waterpipe?! Really? Not a toilet? Great mess! Nice paintings and water splashes.
    barbult #1 I love the silliness of this one, so much fun!
    Sasje #3 I am glad Totte commented first. I had Google "the Plank." I never saw it. Great render!

    Pull #5:
    Sitting Pretty for Gia
    Fairytale Backgrounds
    Elleth Hair
    Creature Creation Pack
    Argos

    I don't know what I am going to do with this - something Greek I guess, but no freak accident comes to mind...Ideas, anyone? :roll:

    perhaps some faeries siting around on a boat having fun with there fairy cats, dogs, rats. Whatever kind of pets faeries have, the Creature Creation Pack part, lol.
    Ever see the ent of the Lord of the rings, as they set off on that boat. except faeries instead of elves, It's a mere thought.

    Wreck of the Argos I

    Many years before Jason and the Argonouts retrieved the Golden Fleece, Jasper and Argophites had made a similar attempt, but were met by disaster in the form of the terrible monster Orumet. Hera had given birth to the creature without help from Zues in order to avenge one of his many offences . Zues was very perturbed as he had promised sucess to Jasper and his crew, most of whom were his progeny. He reprimanded his wife, who laughed, sneered and glowered at him, all at one time. (She did that a lot.)

    Oh, goody! Another RRRR! (And I could really use the diversion, what with all the insanity going on around me, here in the unreal world!)

    First pull:
    71 - Madeline for Stephanie 6
    1718 - Greater House of Healing
    1951 - Legelfin's Closet
    *** 2222 - aniMate Walk Construction Kit -- Calling for a re-draw on this one
    54 - Divinity Rising Oracle

    Hmm, does the pull itself count as a 'freak accident'?

    It's been a pretty tumultuous couple of weeks for me, but I finally had time to sit down and get this one done! (Thanks for the Wi-Fi, Applebee's! Oh, yeah, and the Martinis; can't forget them!)

    We finally got the 'rents settled in their new apartment, the house sold, got me moved, and I started a new assignment (in Pennsylvania, after a three-day drive). The garage sale starts today....

    WHEW!

    Anyway....

    Why. Why. WHY??? do I do this to myself? I'm so bad at balancing things -- literally and metaphorically -- so when real life pops up annoyingly, I wander away from my computer for weeks... and then find myself 6 pages behind in the RRRR thread with my first pull half-done. Okay. Re-focus. Render. Review. I'm on it. I will not be battling an exploding toilet moments before the midnight deadline this time!

    Decorative Boxes (the doom of Alice)
    Just Earrings: Cutey Skulls (checker pieces)
    Habitus Malus (rdna) (the reaper in waiting)
    Wonderland Alice V4 (Alice's dress)

    Our Rabbit had a very busy day ahead of him. What with just having finished his tea party with the doormouse, the Rabbit had jaunted up the rabbit hole on his way to play a game of checkers with Alice. All one could hear was, "I'm late! I'm late!" As Rabbit arrives and has a looksee he is next heard to say, "Oh dear! I'm much too late!" For now, it has become obvious to one and all that while setting up to play this game of checkers, Alice had reached deep into the box to pull out the remaining checker pieces when a sudden unexpected gust of wind had slammed the lid closed upon her in an 'off with your head' manner as the edge came down. It would now seem that our poor Rabbit's game of croquet with the Queen would have to be put on hold.

    also used: m4 skeleton, v4, shane hair, g1 mouse, curious proliferation, croquet, white rabbit, cheshire cat, lyne's flamingos, cup and saucer, chess board, forender's fantasy scythe and black hole texture
