Description
Riches I hold in light esteem
And love I laugh to scorn
And lust of fame was but a dream
That vanished with the morn
And if I pray, the only prayer
That moves my lips for me
Is, "Leave the heart that now I bear
And give me liberty."
Yes, as my swift days near their goal
'Tis all that I implore;
Through life and death, a chainless soul
With courage to endure!
--Emily Brontë, The Old Stoic
I made this to play around with some things in Marvelous Designer, as well as light panels within Vue for lighting. Draping these fabrics in MD took some coordinating and planning in stages. The bedding, pillows, and blankets were all made in MD. I textured them all in Vue. I rendered this as a higher setting to get rid of the graininess and smooth out the soft light and shadows -- but at a terrible render time price. It was a good learning experience all the way around.
Thanks as always for viewing and comments!

The draping is awesome!! And the materials are very nice! I saw MD a few times now, but its too expensive right now... but i think for draping its the best tool? And good draping gives a huge "reality bonus"

Hey bud! Thank you very much! Yeah, MD3 is much more expensive now, as opposed to MD2. It's definitely the best tool in my opinion. It's a little tedious at times when it comes to clothing, but for draping simple fabrics, it's awesome!

Wow! That looks amazingly realistic! I can imagine it did take some planning but there's no arguing with results! Character, pose, cloth, material and lighting are all sublime in their brilliance. Outstanding work, Ryan.

I am just more and more amazed by the tricks you guys are pulling off in MD! One of these days, I really need to upgrade from all my Daztoy programs to some serious tools!

Thanks again, bud! Daz has some new reality thing that's really been blowing my mind. But I've yet to try it. I used it quite a lot before I went back to Poser, so now I think I need to step back into it just to see. You have all the tools you need, bud! How's your modeling coming along? I've so absent lately from Facebook and need to check that group over there where we post WIPs and images.

Well, there's actually a plug-in render upgrade called Reality (actually Lux render engine) if that's what you're referring to... it really does amazing renders. I really should check that out, especially since I've owned it for a year or two.

Absolutely beautiful, my dear one. I love this and the poem that matches it so well. What can I say about the mood? It embraces my heart.

Pensive... poofy.... and like someone else mentioned... 50 shades of grey... Who else but you, could pull it off! Wonderful job Ryan, I really love the gravity of this little MD adventure you went on. I would love to dunk around in MD although it would likely be futile, my patience levels have shifted and my latest has been in learning how to wire wrap, MD would break my brain. LOL Beautiful job my dear, I really love that lighting by the way.

Oh, you already know how to tease me, Ryan - put a handsome hairy bear into a sea of soft pillows, and I'm totally sold...

I played myself some times with MD, but I never got those awesome results
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you. It took a very long time to get these results -- lots and lots of trial and error (mainly error, and blind luck haha)!

The folds are hyper realistic! Great job.
Uhm what is "MD" ?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thank you very much! Ah, MD is Marvelous Designer -- it's a great 3d application for creating and draping fabrics and clothing for objects and models. Sorry, I get lazy in typing it out. I really appreciate your kind words, bud.

You are welcome! And thank you too for the informations.
I already saw the Marvelous Designer somewhere on Youtube.. but I forgot the name of the software..
However. Looks great ! I try the fold simulator on Poser and.. yeah.. its bugged as hell! (You can't even cover a person who is lying on the bed without "mysterious" glitches)
And I didn't know that MD works with Vue and Poser. Wonderful hint!

My pleasure! I've seen people use the cloth tool in Poser with great results, but I've never used it -- I imagine it being a big pain in the butt, and yes, mysteriously glitchy.

Hey buddy! Thanks for the great feedback.
MD sounds like a great program and the key-heaven for my fold problem.
Sorry for the short reply.. I'm just on the run but wanted to thank you for this reply.

This is so cool! I love the pilows and the sheets! Well done, my friend!

No, this is Anthony Ward. His part of the story takes place nearly 300 years before Lt. Daniel (we'll get back to him later
And he's in many, many more. He quickly became one of my favorite characters. Not that I look like him (I wish!), but he has my mind in the stories.

Aww, thank you so much, Daniela!

This is a fantastic image, and it was so much fun experimenting in MD! Pillows!

haha Thank you very much, Björn! Yes! It was so much fun when you and I played around in MD that day -- we were like tickled little kids! I just love the endless possibilities with the tools of the trade, as well as the infinite places we can go in our story. So glad to have you on this exploration!
