Pretty In Pink
Mar 13, 2019 11:19:19 #
The crap comment was posted, not sure if it went to the right person, my "Pretty In Pink" was nothing more than an educational insert into the nude category, I enjoy lovely nude figures like anyone, I'm not interested in images that don't reflect on women as genuine female counter parts to men. I don't see them as sex objects, the post was a process in showing women as interesting creatures. I should know, I have four sisters, four daughters, one divorced wife who is still a good friend and my current wife. I enjoy the site when I see women in a positive light that reflects there true beauty not just a nude picture.
Thanks for your comments.

Hear,hear. I agree with you. Seems like we should all be able to play nice or move on.

So, images from Lightroom, Photoshop, etc. are not photography?
Haha this argument rages on and I work Abstracts from my photos but got fed up of being told it's not photography so call myself A Photographer and Digital Artist. Solved the problem straight away.

Yup, still playing with 3D CG-because it is the future. I also prefer the non objective matter of fact steril look to the images in order to reflect a ultra realism to the figures, composition and flesh tones.
I enjoy what you have created Here, job well done

For those artists/photographers interested in the software, DAZ 3D, if you have a good computer with a good graphics card, everything will work fine. I made the mistake of buying a gaming computer thinking it would be fast and accurate in rendering images. My mistake, I am now building a computer for rendering purposes only. I don't play games, have more importants things to work, so my $1500.00 for a worthless gaming computer is just that. I will use it for other projects, and screw games, not my fantasy.

The skin tones and flesh are real photographic elements, other parts such as genitalia are also real photographic elements. The only difference is the surface elements are applied to a 3D CG mannequin type of image, those skin tones can be selected from files or if you have a 3D camera you can photograph your own nude models, I can photograph my own facial expressions and apply them to a model, the only difference is the actual figure I choose to work with. I choose to work with females because there is a larger vocabulary of interesting ideas to play with. Male figures look more contrived because they haven't evolved within the software as much as women have. If I had the time I would perfect my own ideas as to what a male figure should look like, I don't have the time, so these artists who work in this arena are incredibly talented and work with real models to achive the ideal look, texture and expressions that are applied to 3D CG.
By the way, this site should include "spell check", it would be an added feature.

What would you need to "fix" your gaming machine? It's just a pile of parts. Better CPU? More ram? An SSD? Tho it IS nice to have a 2nd system to work with while the rendering is working. Some programs have specific requirements for optimum results- and limits. Supposedly some Adobe products can use up to a certain amount of ram- and can even slow down if there's "too much". Allegedly taking 12gb of ram from a 32gb system to use as a ramdisk for a scratch disc helped immensely. I had upgraded my Nvidia card to help with my rendering- and NOT using it at all helped me even more. If you only have 1 HDD, buying a 60gb SSD is cheap, and as a scratch disk it will really speed things up. Some programs (games!) respond better to CPU speed vs multi threading, and/ or multi cores; which is why the gamer systems don't always have the expected performance as other rigs built for other purposes.

Thanks for the tip, I did some research to add a separate graphics card by disconnecting the gaming card inside the laptop, this appears to be the best solution, when I perchase one I will comment on the performance.

Quick comment, the gaming card was never designed to run software that needs a good deal of rendering, it is only for playing games, my system is 64 bit and had I known a gaming card was worthless I would never have bought the ASUS Laptop, or would have purchased one that didn't have the gaming card. I will be purchasing a high end Raedeon graphics card that can solve the problem. But because it will be an external unit I will have to buy a power supply to keep the card running properly and and help keep the unit cool. The Raedeon has a dual cooling system.

I think you need to seek professional help...or a girlfriend.

I don't need a girl friend had those when I was young, I have a wonderful wife, and I explore new technology, I guess you can't see the adventure in persuing new technology. You must be a photographer.
