Description Madame America walks toward the inviting aircraft and immediately the threatening robots step forward out of hiding and bombard her armor with crackling beams of energy! With a growl, Sebastien leaps toward one. Okami controls the robot Pixie and it moves toward the other two.

Molly's art notes: Poser Pro 2012 with quite a bit of Photoshop to add those "crackling beams of energy". All the models and textures have been legally acquired and if you are interested in getting them for your own Poser or DAZ Studio library just ask and I can point you to the correct vendors.

Yes indeed! Without her armor she'd be toasted. Thank you taking the time to comment, my dear!

Thank you! I've been reading a lot about how to use layers for stuff like that in Photoshop and this is the best one I've done so far, I think! I'm so glad it seems effective to you, Tania!!

WOAH! OH MY!
M.A. took such a blast that she lost her hair!
Other than that, it's a stunningly cool image (and huge surprise story-wise!)

MollyFootman In reply to PaulPoser [2013-04-29 12:37:40 +0000 UTC]

Heh. She didn't lose her hair silly, although I have failed totally to make that clear the way I posed her... Her hair is plastered down by her skintight armor; you can see it better in this picture: [link] . I probably should have worked harder to get her positioned so that you can see the forelock since otherwise you only have the hairline to work with.

I'm glad you enjoyed the picture other than my fail and that you are still following the story, Paul!

Was joking! I loved the pic!
Just can't wait to see M.A. in some new peril!

I bet this was hard to rend. Madame America looks like she has no hair at all. I see you used a fire effect with the shot.

MollyFootman In reply to Kiokuffiib11 [2013-04-29 12:35:34 +0000 UTC]

I think if you look very close you can see a bit of her hairline as her hair is plastered tight to her head by the armor. It would have been better if I had positioned her so that you could see the forelock as in this picture [link] , but I was trying to get her positioned as though she was being knocked down by the energy beams. So complicated....

The beams and the explosion were not really done by me but are clip art I used from this package: [link] . I find such clip art on a nice transparent background very easy to layer into a picture with Photoshop or GIMP.

I thought you might have used eyeCandy 6 for photoshop.


Just looked. They're up to edition 7 now. Wow.

[link] It's some pretty impressive filters. The only downside is the price, at 199. Though, I believe it'd be worth it if you could spare the money. I have "4000" (4th edition essentially), and 6. They're pretty impressive.

We do have some sort of filter like that... I think it IS Eye Candy. I wouldn't doubt that "The Toyman" who made the clip art I used did, in fact, use those very filters.

As always, I enjoy chatting with you about various creative techniques and such.

Well, if you look closely, you can see that it's still there plastered to her scalp by the tight fitting armor that is covering her head. Here's a picture of the full armor covering right before she goes into battle: [link] .

Thank you! I had to add all that with Photoshop as there is no way for me to render that kind of thing in Poser.

Heh. Yeah, I have a weakness for her getting knocked unconscious as you know. If her team doesn't make good use of her taking some lumps for them, they'll be next and they're not wearing armor!

Indeed! Her team had best make good use of this beating she's taking for them. If they don't, they're the next to get 'zapped'.
