Welcome and thank you for showing interest in my work.

Now what do I do?

I create fantasy and science-fiction related pictures in 3D (DAZ3D to be precise) and digital painting (photoshop). Actually what I do is creating them with both. I do not see myself as a typical 3D artist, I am into mixed digital media and I truly enjoy it. I love to create textures, I love to compose, to set lights... to bring my characters to life which is sadly something that is rare to find within galleries that use poser and / or DAZ as one of their main mediums. Call me arrogant now - I don´t care.

In my galleries you find the weird as well as the erotic and the shocking and for sure you will find mainly male characters since my focus is upon the male body and art. If you are looking for girls, you will most likely not be happy looking through my pictures.

So far everything you see here is my private work. In my job I am paid for being creative too but those works simply do not belong here since ... well, job is job and fun is fun. :)

Also: Thank you very much for all your faves and watches... I notice every single feedback, even when I do not reply or thank your every watch and fave. :heart:
Interests

Dear friends and watchers

EDIT No2: So my computer does not work at all any more... I press its switch but my monitors stay black. Too bad because my backups have not been finished yet... but at least I know it is not the HD so I will be able to save my stuff in one way or the other.

I am writing from my computer at work now.... just to let you know about this. My new machine I will have the latest in 8 weeks... until then... I will be here every now and then from work and my cell phone.

I know that I have a few notes to answer... sorry for the delay. Gonna miss you folks!

EDIT: Thank you very much for all your wonderful wishes! I started to submit a few prints here, in case you are interested. If there is any picture that you would love to request as a print, feel free to hop to the deviation and request it there.... or writ a comment here or note me. Might not be much that I´ll be making with this but at least this is something and I feel better with this than asking for donations.... because like this you at least get something for your money. :)

:star:

... it of official now: I cannot work with my computer any more... But I do not have the money yet to get the new one... so - nothing new from me at the moment since this slow almost dead machine starts to make me aggressive, the scenes I am having ready for getting done just won´t render any more... at all. And once my machine DOES render, nothing else works any more, not even surfing the net. This is driving me so crazy... I decided to stop working on stuff at the moment.

This is so frustrating since my head is full with ideas but I cannot get them done. My technical issues stop me and this really sucks a lot. I started to learn C4D and cannot continue... I own the reality plugin and cannot use it... I cannot render scenes any more which contain more than a single character and I am sick and tired of always only doing the same old same old shitty boring portrait shots... because there is more inside of me - but again, my fucking computer does not do those any more.

I have no idea when I will be ready to get started again. let´s face the truth, my ex husband has thrown some stones between my legs which caused that I have a much smaller amount of money each month now - so saving up for my new computer - the tool that I NEED - will much longer now than originally planned.

Sorry guys and gals... will be staying away from DA and only check this place every now and then at the moment. Thank you for staying with me. :heart:

PLEASE... Read this!

Respect me and my work, do not steal it or alter it or even claim it as your own. I am seriously sick and tired of finding my stuff all over the internet without my given permission, without credits.

So here is the rules:

MY WORK IS NO RESOURCE MATERIAL FOR WEB-LAYOUTS, MYSPACE DESIGNS, RPG FORUMS OR WHATEVER! Do not ask if you are allowed to use my work for these kind of things - I will most likely not allow it anyways.
:bulletpink: My work is no stock.
:bulletpink: Do not upload it anywhere, delete my watermarks / signature, do not claim it as your own work.
:bulletpink: Do not trace it and claim this as your own.
:bulletpink: Also I am sick and tired of finding my stuff at photobucket and those kind of sites.
:bulletpink: Do not alter it and / or sell it.
:bulletpink: Of course... you can link my stuff, as long as the link goes back to the original or my DA profile page (the one you are looking at at the moment).

Also: I am always open for CONSTRUCTIVE criticism. Tell me where I can improve my work but please... do it in a friendly tone. Yes, it is about the tone and respect in general. If you are not able to do so, then keep your mouth shut. Otherwise I put you on my "banned" list anyways as my time is way too precious.

And... ADJUST your MONITORS! :lol: I do not want to read a single "This is too dark, I cannot see anything" any more. I know that most of my pictures are dark but none of them are "too dark", I am absolutely sure about that. :aww:

Also, please respect my characters! This sounds odd now, I know, but since my OCs are MY OCs I would hate it to see them in your own works, doing things, that they would never actually do! Don´t get me wrong, I feel honored when my characters are interesting enough for you to include them i works of your own, all I am asking for is that you do it in a respectful way and fitting to their character and lore. If you have questions about any of them, please feel free to ask me. Some of them are very very close to me as they contain big parts of myself and thus you would not only abuse them but also me by not respecting who and what they are.

:heart: Thank you! :heart:

COMMISSION, REQUESTS, ART TRADES ETC:

:bulletpurple: I will open up commission work very soon again... For sure I will not accept DA points as payment though because those stupid points do not pay my bills...
:bulletpurple: No, I don´t take requests, it is simple as that.
:bulletpurple: I am generally open for art trades but it depends on what is requested. So if you are interested, please look at the kind of work which is in my galleries to see what I am able to do and what not... makes things a lot easier. :XD:
:bulletpurple: No, I do not sell my 3D characters and also I do not sell parts of them as their textures or morphs only. Of course, I do not give them away for free as well.

QUESTIONS?

Feel free to ask them. But please... stay away with "I just got DAZ3D, so how do I use it?" I love to help out and for a specific question I have a specific answer for everyone. All I am expecting is: Use your brain ... and I will use mine as well. :XD:

About watermarks

Yes... my work has annoying watermarks. I know they are ugly and I know they actually destroy the picture / composition. At least I have made my own ones which are not as disturbing as the DA ones are but still - watermarks are ugly and always in the way.

But then again I found my work way too many times on sites where I would not want them to be... no credits... for sale even without mentioning me - the one who sat here for hours to get them done. And believe me - THIS is even more annoying, so I apologize - the minority ruined it for the majority - and now I have watermarks.

I know that watermarks can be removed... but since I am having those I did not find a single picture of mine being used for commercial purposes any more... which is at last something.

Thank you for your understanding!

Did you see there is a now a Dunmer fangroup?
:iconthe-cornerclub:

I am not affiliated with it; I just thought of you and remembered how you said you liked the Dunmer and those gruff voices they had in Morrowind. :aww:

In all the time I've spent on DA, you have to be the single greatest 3D artist I've ever found. It's so smooth, so realistic that it blows me away each time I see your work. I have no clue why I've never watched you before, but I'm changing that now. :D

Hallo Mavrosh! Ich weiß nicht ob du dieses Problem auch schon hattest. Aber dennoch wollte ich dir diesen Link nicht vorenthalten. [link]

Es geht um die nervige Stiftanimation unter Windows 7. Dennoch wollte ich dir diesen Link nicht vorenthalten. Vielleicht hat ja einer in deinem Bekanntenkreis das gleiche Problem...

You have no idea how much I want to write stories based off of your characters. You don't do decent drow. You do AMAZING drow, and I absolutely love it. Makes me super happy inside. <3 When you have commissions open, I want to commission you <3 Do you have a price sheet anywhere?
