Daz|Studio, Comics, and More!!

My Blog is not dead.

Keeping up with your blog writing can be a chore. Especially since you have been working with Daz Studio as of late. Daz|Studio is a free program from DAZ 3D, which you can use to create your own 3D content and be your own artist in a strong manner. Not only does DAZ 3D produce Daz Studio, but they are one of the best places to get Poser content.

Besides Daz|Studio, DAZ 3D produces Carrara, which is in its seventh incarnation. Bryce, Hexagon, Mimic, and other products. So, what can I do with Daz|Studio? Almost anything I want (one reason why I am strongly considering Carrara).

Comics using Daz|Studio, Photoshop, and Comic Life

So, I am producing content for my own comics. One of these comics is a series I'm calling, "Shaper." It's a manga series staring Aiko 4, Hiro 3, Hiro 4, Victoria 4, Michael 4, and Apollo Maximus. Three of these are located on the people category.

The Aiko figure plays most of the women in the comic.
Hiro 3/Hiro 4 plays some of the men.
Victoria 4 plays the women of authority. Teachers of that sort.
Michael 4 and Apollo Maximus get the other men parts.
Maybe and Deco will be playing special parts.

Using these figures I can generate some good comics using Photoshop and Comic Life. Updates about my comic will be made on this blog. Including the premise. I currently have an account on Web Comics Nation to show the comic. I just need more actors (Hiro 4 and Apollo Maximus), Wardrobe, and Sets. This will be cool!

How do I get into Daz|Studio?

Rule number 1: Don't buy Poser! Although most people use Poser, and most 3d Merchants on Renderosity, RNDA, and other places support Poser, DAZ Studio is a free product that is easy to use for the 3D content beginner. I also recommend buying Photoshop, since that program is very powerful to use and you can use it in so many creative ways.
And remember to click on the link below to find out how to get Daz Studio for free!

Also, if you are in need of an actor for your scenes be sure to check out Apollo Maximus. Click both links below.


That should be it, and:

HAPPY NEW YEAR!

STAR TREK

IRON MAN DVD WIDGET

The Election

The election affects all of us. Find out who will win, and who will lose. Personally, I think the election is a sham.

Day 3 of thinking I'm Healthy

It is currently the day after my birthday, Oct. 16, 2008. So far, my thinking of being healthy has gotten me to cough up and eject -- yes eject -- mucous from my respiratory tract. This is actually a good thing, even though my ear is swollen and my eyes are weeping puss (pink eye?).

I am currently encoding Iron Man from the DVD-ROM; ripping it into my hard drive into Apple T.V. Format so that my brother and my sister in law could enjoy watching it through their apple-tv. Currently, my ear is getting unswollen. I was not feeling well on my Birthday, even though I have now lived 34 years. And my ear itches. So, lets see what is happening on the front.

• There is an interesting Nudist video I recently watched. Produced by Hollywood, young women predominate. Also there is a fat woman who is constantly made fun of. This is all Hollywood's fault. This is not "work safe" so you have been warned. But its also not pornographic in anyway. In fact, it's a social documentary.

Day 1 of thinking I'm Healthy

I cought a cold/the flu awhile back and it has knocked me out for the past three days. While talking about my sickness with my friends, one suggested to stop thinking I'm sick. Well, that is what I am going to do.

Day 1 of thinking I'm Healthy!

Right now, the common cold has lodged in my right ear behind the ear drum. I have effectively lost all hearing in my right ear. It is hard to sleep in this condition. I have tried sleeping through the night, but to no avail.

Some important points to consider:

* A witer argues that our definition of beauty needs some work.

* A girl has found out that her friend is naturist. I say, "good for her!"

* Did you know that over half of Austrian Youths rely on pornography for their sex education? Apparently, Australia has the same problem. Is it getting that way here in America?

School on my mind

I've been in school.

I've not been updating any posts because I've been in school and concentrating on school work.

Olympic Musings

Having Olympic fever isn't really much of a disease for me. Sure the Olympic spirit is reduced after the olympics, but its fun to see the Olympians compete. Often for themselves and not for the glory of the Media circus around the Olympics.

The sacrifices the athletes make are powerful enough to make or break Champions. They are often asked to sacrifice their time and their effort to be the best they can be. Being caught with Olympic fever for a long time, I've often wondered about my progeny. Wouldn't be nice if one of them became and olympic champion in their own right? Ha, they aren't even born yet and I'm already thinking of raising an Olympic Champion. So, does this mean that I'm sure I'm going to meet their mother? Lets just say it's a big possibility.

Understanding Attraction

I understand my attraction to my cousin. It is quite simple really. We are both the same, and or nearly the same. I love what my cousin was, as she is now, and what she has become. She has all the attributes I'd like as a companion.

a. She's an at home nudist. Bully for her.

b. She took responsibility for herself by leaving the Church and becoming a wiccan. I love and admire her for that.

c. She's willing to critique my artwork and give some helpful suggestions. I perceive that she really does love me. Woot!

d. When we message each other, its like best friends or true friends. That is so awesome!

Now where is her doppleganger in all but genetics?

Naturist Picture of the Day

Oh, I've become quite the Artist. I use Daz|Studio from Daz to make my 3D renderings. Most of my renderings are on Renderosity. But I liked this one, so I thought I'd post it here too.

Love

I've now gone and done it. I've taken my feelings of love for my cousin to a higher, and deeper level. My cousin in Norway is a Wiccan. I found this out from my other cousins about two weeks ago, and rather than choose to denounce her and judge her as wayward; I've chosen to be proud of her and to admire her.

One of my best friends, Dave Sharp, said that the best way to support someone is to love them. And when you love them, they automatically feel your love. So, I started to love my cousin to show my support. Little did I know that I would actually be attracted to her spiritually, emotionally, mentally, and sexually. Someone could say this is unfair, that it is wrong to be attracted to my cousin in such a way. I don't believe so.

Roleplaying on World of Warcraft

Roleplaying on World of Warcraft is a messy affair. Many people that play on a Roleplay Server do not understand the seperation of imagination from the real. This is one of the lessons I learned this week. So, lets talk about Roleplaying on World of Warcraft, and what it means.

Roleplaying in a fantasy world means that the life you roleplay in that world is just that -- Fantasy! In World of Warcraft, when you RP, you can be anyone, at any time, at any place. Its a fantasy, this means that it isn't REAL! Nothing that happens on World of Warcraft is meant to be real when you roleplay.

So here is my Rant for roleplaying on World of Warcraft. It either doesn't exist, it's frustrating, and its something that can cost you friendships if you aren't careful. People who play on the many World of Warcraft Roleplaying Servers are not Roleplayers at all! They play World of Warcraft for the fun of it and when you do RP, they think you are projecting your real self all the time.

It makes me sick that people confuse romance on an RP server in World of Warcraft to be the real thing. Although I had many opportunities to build a romance, I bungled them all. This is because people can't discern what is fantasy with what is real. So, if you want to play in World of Warcraft, I suggest buying the World of Warcraft pencil and paper RPG. Then you get a group of friends and have a grand time of free entertainment.

The idea to create a living novel, or story, is very appealing to creative types. It also is very fun and very exciting. The dynamic that World of Warcaft actually presents is strong and powerful, if everyone roleplayed their roles and understood that what happens in World of Warcraft, under a RP server, does not have a bearing on the real world.

So keep this in mind when playing World of Warcraft. Roleplaying in World of Warcraft does not usually exist, and when it does, becareful because most people have a tendency to blend the real world with the fantasy world.
