Pearlle's Art

[Pearlle]

this is my first piece to show folks here. i tried looking for some of the other 3d art to see what else gets posted, i didn't have any luck. anyway, hope this is enjoyable to look at. not a fully pic by me, just something i made for our guild's first website. and i wanted to put up something half assed and see how it gets received. its okay if its not your thing. i think its very pretty.

[Setrema]

i want that dress!

[Bir]

No no, by all means post MORE! It's awesome! When I'm not RPing I'll dig those other 3d arts up, they're around here somewhere I know it..

[opalexian]

What program do you use? My exroomie uses one too, but I can't remember what it's called. >_<

[Pearlle]

poser 7 to render the image, then photoshop cs2 to do some "postwork"

[Sinlanna]

That's pretty rockin'..I'm not usually a fan of 3d, but I like this a lot ^_^

[Pearlle]

here is one of pearlle's "daughter" prysma. she's dead now. is this too big to share here?

http://bloodnwine.com/safeart/prysma001.jpg

*note* DireLilith is my artist name.

[Bir]

That's not too big, if you think it might be too big just do a url link-- So it's not big enough, FULL RES IMO.

[Pearlle]

alright this is a fresher one. not a character of mine but maybe some human warrior or other *shrugs and smiles*

[Pearlle]

[Bir]

DO ONE OF SKINNY WALTER!!

It really does look very nice, but the nakedness.. No nips so it's still pg 13 but someone might get offended.

[Pearlle]

well other pics were posted recently here that showed full breasts though i thought this might be okay. thanks for the warning!

[Bir]

Hey hey, I'm not saying I'm offended. I'm ALL FOR boobez. Some people, not so much.

You know how controversial tv is? That's how all our morals should be.

/skips off trying not to make too much of a debate.

I like her lil crown thingy it's great.

[Tivian]

omg, this is really really good! i like it all! :D

[Pearlle]

awww thanks tivian!!!

[Pearlle]

this one is just called "innocent moment", kinda boring. yeah i know she looks chubby.

http://bloodnwine.com/safeart/innocentmoment001.jpg

[Pearlle]

and here's something a bit more me, yes too buxom. but that's just how i made the figure and how i'm keeping her. i like boobies! big natural ones!

http://bloodnwine.com/safeart/pearllewarlock001.jpg

[Izlude Fellblade]

*Twitch.*
She's too good to me.

...Seriously.

[Vyndette]

I like the pictures. My favorite thus far is the "innocent" one.

[The_Golden_Wolf]

I like the chubby one! /smooch

[Pearlle]

here is a pic with pearlle's breastesses smaller to fit a nicer dress. and... a lil bloodplay.

http://bloodnwine.com/safeart/lament001.jpg

http://bloodnwine.com/safeart/likeyourmouth001.jpg

[Bir]

I must say, I like her with normal boobies a bit more than the big ones. No offense or nothin'-- But that 'chubby' pic of her really is adorable.

[Tivian]

love it! <3 wonderful! *is a fan nao*

[Faelen]

I Really like Innocent Moment, but yeah.... slide the boob bar down to 'modest' level. ;P And this isn't just the gay in me talking! <3 Wonderful work though, otherwise. I'd never be able to pull off stuff like this!

[Pearlle]

yes pearlle's had breast augmentation of the minimizing kind, heh....i made them smaller. took the one morph i was using right out. le SIGH! she won't look as good naked now! but then y'all don't get to see those pics ;)

here is izlude. face is younger a bit, so smoother and rounder just a tad. and he's dressed.

http://bloodnwine.com/safeart/izlude001.jpg

[Shadowdane]

Bravo!!!

[Pearlle]

a kinda cheesy piece. ionno. it was inside and needed out.

http://bloodnwine.com/safeart/ghost001.jpg

[Pearlle]

this one's a bit better. i'm really not used to making "scenes" like this so pardon while i improve *blush*

http://bloodnwine.com/safeart/intimacy001.jpg

[Pearlle]

this is an older one. and it exists because not all elves are happy lil fluffy things.

http://bloodnwine.com/safeart/darkling001.jpg

[Pearlle]

the undead girl. i'm never good with magick effects and i don't like the thigh in the background, but the leg in the foreground turned out really well. hope all you undead get a kick out of it anyway!

http://bloodnwine.com/safeart/theundeadgirl001.jpg

[Pearlle]

just another pearlle pic using the lyrics from sheyde's song.

http://bloodnwine.com/safeart/bookdiscovery002.jpg

[Pearlle]

this is just something i wrote tonight. i just like putting poetry on the pics. hope it doesn't bug anyone too much.

http://bloodnwine.com/safeart/pearlledonttouch001.jpg

[l3rokken4ngel]

<3 your stuff.. and

ZOMG IZLUDEEEEEEEE I SEE JOO. He looks good too!

[Josylin]

Very well done!!! The darkling one reminds me of Josylin a bit...the clothes...not so much. But the face and hair definitely!! :)

[Pearlle]

really? i could do more you know =) i'll give some a shot with some tough girl armor.

[Josylin]

That would be awesome!! :)

[Bir]

this one's a bit better. i'm really not used to making "scenes" like this so pardon while i improve *blush*

http://bloodnwine.com/safeart/intimacy001.jpg

I hate to seem like a jerk but I just noticed that it doesn't look like you rendered his ear..

[Pearlle]

i didn't stupid poser didn't like the stupid ear so i had to paint it and i'm so not good at that. *shrugs* guess i just hope ppl focus on the good :)

[Skaadvik]

this one is just called "innocent moment", kinda boring. yeah i know she looks chubby.

http://bloodnwine.com/safeart/innocentmoment001.jpg

I was all stoned and being rude when I wrote what was originally here... what I meant to write was that I like this picture a lot. Most of your other ones aren't my taste. Not that I don't like boobs, mind you... I'm just gonna dig a deeper hole if I keep typing. Cool art. :)

[Pearlle]

just a "you...shall not...pass!" type of pic.

http://bloodnwine.com/darknest/defiance001.jpg

[Pearlle]

something i made in response to all this zombie business. did some adult pieces too. zombie madness. ugh! this is a blood elf chanting and helping to bring the plague to the land.

http://bloodnwine.com/darknest/ahallowedend001.gif

[The_Golden_Wolf]

That is by far your best picture, imo. Only thing is that the staff is rather thick, but who knows maybe she lifts. Either way, good shadowing... the snarl on her face is great. And this is coming from someone who generally isn't big on digi art. /thumbsup

[Pearlle]

these were made listening to Black Aria II by Danzig. the last one was made listening to Lamentia Lilith.

[Alphaeus]

Are these all default models and props with poser, or do you download them? I've considered Poser on and off as a pose reference program (so much easier than requesting specific poses from stock photo models), but not if I'd have to buy extra models and props.

[Pearlle]

poser 7 and i think 8 is out now too, both have wonderful default models or figures that would serve your purpose. and i think the latest version also has one of those posing figures you buy as an artist, the one made of wood that looks like a puppet of sorts, no real features. the poses also come with the program.

i have about 2k worth of props and models cuz it's kind of what i do (yes i ought to be so much better after this many years). so what you see me using is not the default. but for what you describe, alphaeus, you could definitely use poser for. would even help with shadows and lighting too i'd think.

thanks for the comments!

[Kadesh]

Very nice...I love that last one =)

[Korangar]

You're always good at putting emotion into your images Pearlle. Your image above, inspired by Lamentia Lilith shows that yet again. Even without any facial expression.

[Pearlle]

just working out some tension. pearlle looks best in this outfit i think. i'm glad i have lots of textures for it.

[Pearlle]

just a dreaming girl with dancing thoughts.

[Faelenor]

just a dreaming girl with dancing thoughts.

http://bloodnwine.com/darknest/petalstorm001.jpg

This one reminds me of trish from Devil May Cry. Very well done.

[Pearlle]

aww thanks for the comments!

[Kadesh]

I like how the hood casts a shadow over her eyes..

The petal one is just all around good =)

[Pearlle]

just get ready for winter pics.

http://bloodnwine.com/darknest/gettingchilly001.jpg

[Kadesh]

Very good =) the face with the tongue sticking out is really cute

[Pearlle]

hope this isn't too offensive. found a good set of armor i wish pearlle could have in the game.

http://bloodnwine.com/darknest/angrywarlock001.jpg

[Kadesh]

Love the gear =)

[Pearlle]

finally acquired the armor i wanted for my dk. i wanted this one just because of the chain at the side of the skirt. some northrend mobs do this whole chain throwing, pulling thing, similar to dk's. so, i went with it.

http://bloodnwine.com/darknest/cominghome001.jpg

[Alacardia]

The gear looks great on her and i love the effect on the chain =)

[Pearlle]

this is a pic for the story i wrote in nether legends called zeppelin tag. didn't have an actual paper zeppelin to put into the pic, but the idea comes across.

thanks for looking!

[Pearlle]

i got a new hair prop for my Pearlle character in my program. so i made a few pics. can't show them here of course but this one, she has a lil dress on.

http://bloodnwine.com/darknest/unexpectedmodesty001.jpg

[Akuje]

To clarify... you are using purchased 3d models and playing dress up? When creating facial structures, is it done via. wire form or default facial expressions? Or do you create the textures yourself? I was confused by some of what was said in the thread.

[Pearlle]

i could leave it at dress up, but it's sometimes more fun to customize. you get the "wire figure" as you referred to it as, and you "morph" it with a gazillion dials. you can use packaged and ready-made things, or fiddle. sometimes i do one, sometimes i do another. same with textures. lil artwork in photoshop and you make it your own. or you make it from scratch. thankfully with pearlle, she's just a typical elf right now. i'm hoping to get her some tattoos in roleplay; when i do i'll need to customize the existing texture and add them using photoshop, then re-add them in the program. 3d programs like this are as simple or as hard as you want them to be. throwing things together can take you five minutes. or hours. mine usually take an hour or two, to fiddle and get it the way i want.

i'm working on a kadesh figure now. *shakes head* forgot to add elf ears, of all things. his figure is less "packaged" than pearlle because i want him to look a certain way, and no merchant has made the ideal character before.

the hard part for programs like this is the creativity. and making things as life-like as you can, rather than just "hand on hip" or "smile". you want the nuances that make it live. i try that. i don't always get it. i get closer every time. sometimes, even though i have a good thousand dollars worth of software for this program, i get an idea and can't accomplish anything. it's like pearlle's bank vault! 57 dresses and nothing to wear!

thanks for asking good questions!

Sorry if I came across as rude or the like. I can appreciate wire frame work and textures. But just throwing on other models and such is kinda blegh =p More patience then I have with that stuff, I managed to make a positionable baby face once, and a 3d tunnel you'd ride through. maybe the software has gotten better from then.

[Pearlle]

no, i was prepared when i saw who posted ;) i knew not to take it personal, you're just very straightforward. it's a good thing.

some programs used by ppl even here i believe, i forget who, are straight up make-it-from-scratch. you use magnets and pull shapes into being. that i can't do...yet. i've got carrera and bryce but my computer can't handle those. poser is resource intensive.

right now i've been working....two, three hours? on an image that is just a pic of kadesh's head and pearlle's head. can't get it right. but it is a patience thing.

i was thinking of showing some stuff here in my lil thread about what it looks like before rendered, what poser looks like and how it works. it really can be easy and quick. but the best stuff doesn't look 3d, like mine does, and looks like something drawn or painted. heh we spend all this time learning and working with a program that's as far from traditional as you can get...just so we can get a final product that's traditional looking *facepalm*

[Pearlle]

*flops down* gods see, this is the kind of thing i work hours on and i can't get it to look the way i want in my head! but le sigh...it expresses the idea at least and lots of other ppl like it. so i'm gonna go ahead and share it.

[Okhu]

The eyepatch looks funny.

[Vilmah]

If you're serious about 3-d modeling, I'd suggest learning to use 3d Studio Max or Maya, as they are industry standards. Poser isn't really used professionally, except as reference for artists who use the models like real-life models. It's okay for lighting practice with lighting, but if you're planning on entering the 3d world professionally you have to be able to model these things from scratch. Generally, that either starts with box modeling, or modeling from a single polygon. Poser models tend to be insanely high-poly, which is okay if you're just taking single shots, but when you're modeling yourself, the challenge is to make a model that is low poly and still looks good. That's where texturing comes in.

Then again, if this is a hobby, go nuts!

[Pearlle]

it's professional ;) i make about $120 every six weeks or so, plus i get some extra royalties as it were for sites where my 'characters' become the mascot that leads the customer around the site, 3d navigation of a sort. one of the ppl i work with makes a couple hundred a month with her artwork. that's what i'm heading towards. and once i perfect myself as a merchant, i'll be adding a couple hundred to my income each month. poser is not used in film or movie making industries. but it's got a huge following and lots of professional utility.

[Alacardia]

Love the new pics pearlle =D

[Vilmah]

Well see, that's what I mean. From a creative developers standpoint, Poser can't be used because you need to purchase models and give credit to other artists, which isn't cost efficient. It's like buying someone's dolls, and doll clothes, posing them, and taking pictures. Some companies use poser models as short cuts, but not for gaming or film.

Well, scratch that... Black Isle used Poser models for Icewind Dale II because the company that they comissioned to make the models were lazy assholes. I think they were blacklisted after that mini fiasco.

[Kadesh]

I like how kedesh looks in the zepplin tag one =) very nice

[Pearlle]

er *scratches nose* no...when we read the licenses for the products we get, we don't have to give credit to anyone. whether it's a product that will be used for a free image or for purchase for print - we do get our work printed for hanging on walls or for graphic novels - we don't have to credit the merchants. we don't worry about who makes the crayons, we focus on making the pictures. it takes a lot of creativity, if you're into it. the picture i'm working on now for a christmas contest has taken me probably eight hours. poser isn't ideal for game or film. i don't compete in those fields so i'm not really worried about it's usefulness there. the people i work with make a living off poser images and products. it pays the rent and feeds their addiction to their software. i wish wow would let me do that without making me feel immoral, haha! anyway, using poser for a regular income is what i'll do soon. i have no doubts about it. i know poser has a bad name with those who can afford more expensive programs. the rest of us just work with what we gots. i got poser. i'm doing really well with it =D

i have a long way to go. i'm like, learning at a snail's pace, heh! but i'll get there.

[Errigal]

I REALLY like the third one, very nice.

[Pearlle]

finally made something after a long hiatus creatively.

Very nice pic Pearlle!

The concept of a mist witch brings many thoughts to my mind.
